In this paper, the effect of convective boundary conditions, heat generation, Brownian motion, and thermophoresis on heat transfer characteristics of a moving cylinder embedded into cooling medium consists of water with nanoparticles are studied. The governing boundary-layer equations transformed to ODE using similarity transformation method and then solved analytically using optimal homotopy asymptotic method for the general case. The velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles within the boundary-layer plotted and discussed in details for various values of the different parameters. Moreover, the effect of boundary-layer behavior on the surface shear stress, rate of heat and mass transfer investigated.

This investigation reports the boundary layer flow and heat transfer characteristics in a couple stress fluid flow over a continuos moving surface with a parallel free stream. The effects of heat generation in the presence of convective boundary conditions are also investigated. Series solutions for the velocity and temperature distributions are obtained by the homotopy analysis method (HAM). Convergence of obtained series solutions are analyzed. The results are obtained and discussed through graphs for physical parameters of interest.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the unsteady pressure-driven flow of a reactive third-grade non-Newtonian fluid in a channel filled with a porous medium. The flow is subjected to buoyancy, suction/injection asymmetrical and convective boundary conditions. Design/methodology/approach – The authors assume that exothermic chemical reactions take place within the flow system and that the asymmetric convective heat exchange with the ambient at the surfaces follow Newton’s law of cooling. The authors also assume unidirectional suction injection flow of uniform strength across the channel. The flow system is modeled via coupled non-linear partial differential equations derived from conservation laws of physics. The flow velocity and temperature are obtained by solving the governing equations numerically using semi-implicit finite difference methods. Findings – The authors present the results graphically and draw qualitative and quantitative observations and conclusions with respect to various parameters embedded in the problem. In particular the authors make observations regarding the effects of bouyancy, convective boundary conditions, suction/injection, non-Newtonian character and reaction strength on the flow velocity, temperature, wall shear stress and wall heat transfer. Originality/value – The combined fluid dynamical, porous media and heat transfer effects investigated in this paper have to the authors’ knowledge not been studied. Such fluid dynamical problems find important application in petroleum recovery.

<p class="zhengwen"><span lang="EN-GB">The linear boundary layer of the free flow around a circular horizontal cylinder with uniform surface temperature in the presence of heat generation was studied. Upon obtaining the non-dimensional boundary layer equations, the Runge-Kutta series method was used to solve the non-linear partial differential equations numerically. The surface shear stress results and surface heat rate were subsequently obtained in terms of the internal shell friction and the local Nusselt number respectively. The following heat generation parameters (C) were selected:  0.0, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8, and 1.0. The following results were obtained: 1) increasing C led to a corresponding increase u, v , VM , and θ , 2) Increasing i led to a corresponding increase in u, v , and VM, and 3) increasing C increased velocity variations and, naturally, the value of Cf, and 4) increasing i from i=0 to i=100 led to a decrease in the Nusselt number (Nu). </span></p>

High Heat Transfer

Two methods of flow control were designed to mitigate the effects of the horseshoe vortex structure (HV) at an airfoil/endwall junction. An experimental study was conducted to quantify the effects of localized boundary layer removal on surface heat transfer in a low-speed wind tunnel. A transient infrared technique was used to measure the convective heat transfer values along the surface surrounding the juncture. Particle image velocimetry was used to collect the time-mean velocity vectors of the flow field across three planes of interest. Boundary layer suction was applied through a thin slot cut into the leading edge of the airfoil at two locations. The first, referred to as Method 1, was directly along the endwall, the second, Method 2, was located at a height ∼1/3 of the approaching boundary layer height. Five suction rates were tested; 0%, 6.5%, 11%, 15% and 20% of the approaching boundary layer mass flow was removed at a constant rate. Both methods reduced the effects of the HV with increasing suction on the symmetry, 0.5-D and 1-D planes. Method 2 yielded a greater reduction in surface heat transfer but Method 1 outperformed Method 2 aerodynamically by completely removing the HV structure when 11% suction was applied. This method however produced other adverse effects such as high surface shear stress and localized areas of high heat transfer near the slot edges at high suction rates.
