This paper deals with numerical simulations of forced convection from a pair of identical cylinders arranged in tandem manner inside a square cavity of single inlet and outlet ports. The gap distance between the cylinders is fixed with half of square length. The main purpose of this study is to see the effect of inlet and outlet port positions on fluid flow and heat transfer rate. The governing equations of continuity, momentum and energy have been solved using finite-volume method in laminar, steady and two dimensional directions. The work has been done in the range of these conditions: Re = 1 to 40, at fixed Pr = 7.01. Three positions of inlet and outlet port have been selected. The mean results of flow patterns and distribution temperature are illustrated under the contours of streamline and isotherm respectively. The drag and lift coefficients of each cylinder is computed and discussed. The average Nusselt number of both cylinders is also presented and discussed. It was found that the inlet and outlet ports have significant effects on heat transfer from the confined cylinders.

3D computational analyses are achieved to predict seriously the influences of thermal buoyancy strength and Dean number on Dean vortices, flow behavior and the rate heat transfer through 180° curved channel of square cross-sectional form. The work shows many results, so this paper emphasizes only on the results of 60° cross-sectional position of the bend duct. The principal partial equations of continuity, momentum and energy are considering in three dimensions under the following assumptions: flow is incompressible and laminar, and it is solved in steady-state. The aforementioned equations are subjected to suitable boundary conditions under following range as: Dean number of De = 125 to 150, Richardson number of Ri = 0 to 2 at fixed value of Prandtl number Pr = 1. The principal results of this work are illustrated as streamline and isotherm contours to draw to flow patterns and temperature distributions respectively. The axial velocity profile is shown versus above conditions, the local Nusselt number is also presented along the wall of 60° cross-sectional position. The results show that the thermal buoyancy can balance the effect of centrifugal force of fluid particles at the angular position of 60°.

This article investigates the boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an electrically conducting Casson fluid over a stretching wedge by considering the effects of suction/injection, velocity and thermal slips and thermal radiation. By applying the appropriate similarity transformations,the governing partial differential equations are transformed to highly non-linear ordinary differential equations. These resulting similarity equations are then solved by a new analytic method namely DTM-BF, based on differential transformation method (DTM) and base function (BF). A comparativestudy of the present numerical results has been made with the already published results available in the literature. The effects of various governing parameters on the flow and heat transfer characteristics have been discussed graphically.

In this paper, we have studied the effects of retardation time of non-Newtonian Oldroyd-B type fluid driven by Helmholtz-Smoluchowski velocity in a micro-channel. The potential electric field is applied along the length of the micro-channel describing by the Poisson–Boltzmann equation. The governing model equation was solved analytically using the classical method of partial differential equations. Analytical solution was simulated with the help of MATHEMATICA software and the graphical results for various physical flow parameters were analyzed. Results shows that for larger values of retardation time of a viscoelastic fluid the higher the viscoelastic effect of the fluid and this makes it to need more time for the stress to respond to deformation. Also, the electrokinetic width of micro-channel play a vital rule on the performance of velocity distribution.

In order to reduce the operating costs of the engine, turbine designers must also increase the life of their components. However, high gas temperatures throughout the engine require more cooling air or better cooling efficiency to protect the parts from thermal damage. This study presents numerical research on cooling holes. Research focused on aerodynamics and thermal aspects of shallow whole angle. The numerical simulation is performed based on Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with SST turbulence model by using CFX. A modification has been done in the normal injection hole of 35°, by injecting the cold fluid at different blowing ratio, providing a significant change in the shape of holes which later we found in our numerical investigation giving good quality of film cooling effectiveness.

The current work examines mixed convection boundary layer flow and heat transfer attributes in hydromagnetic micropolar fluid past a heated inclined sheet which stretches nonlinearly along the direction of flow. The impact of variable thermo-physical characteristics of the fluid together with the influence of magnetic field, thermal radiation and viscous dissipation are also checked on the flow field. The modelled governing equations are translated from partial to ordinary differential equations via relevant similarity transformations and the resulting equations are subsequently solved numerically by means of shooting techniques in company with Runge-Kutta integration algorithms. The reactions of the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, dimensionless velocity as well as temperature to variations in the emerging controlling parameters are illustrated through different graphs. In the limiting situations, the results obtained exhibit a strong relationship with the existing related works in literature. The facts emanated from this study also reveal that the thickness of the thermal boundary layer grows widely with a rise in the Eckert number and Biot number parameters whereas increasing the material (micropolar) and thermal conductivity parameters have opposite effects on the rate of heat transfer.

We extend previous studies of channel flows to porous media flows with combined effects ofboth heat and mass transfer. We consider a temperaturedependent viscosity fluid and a concentrationdependent diffusivity in an unsteady and pressuredriven nonisothermal Brinkman flow. This leads to the governing equations for velocity, concentration and temperature. By lagging nonlinear coefficients, in time, a convergent finite difference scheme is formulated. We adopt the method of manufactured solutions to verify the convergence and second order spatial accuracy of the scheme. The impact of the flow parameters on the flow fields are numerically investigated. The results show that increase in the Darcy number and temperature parameter both increase the velocity while the increase in the pollutant diffusion parameter decreases the pollutant concentration.

In this paper, a fractional relaxation model is studied to determine the effect of heat transfer and magnetic field on the blood flow. The flow is due to an oscillating periodic pressure gradient and body acceleration. We apply Laplace transform as well as finite Hankel transform to obtain the closed form solutions of the velocity and temperature distributions of the fractional time partial differential equations. Effect of the fluid flow parameters are shown graphically with changes in the ordinary model as well as the fractional parameters. The analysis shows that the fractional derivative is an excellent tool which gives remarkable change in controlling temperature and blood flow. The analysis depicts graphically, that in the presences of strong applied (exterior) magnetic field, reduces the temperature and blood flow velocities, which is appropriate to avoid tissues damage during treatment. In addition, it is seen that some of the aforementioned parameters influenced the fluid flow profiles in increasing and decreasing fashion which is interpreted as useful to the study.

This paper deals with a numerical simulation of laminar forced convection heat transfer from a pair of identical circular cylinders placed at the center of square cavity in the line array, the cavity is ventilated with single inlet and outlet ports, the inlet port is located at the middle of left vertical wall and the outlet port is located at the middle of right vertical wall. The work represents the effects of the distance between cylinders and Reynolds number on fluid flow and heat transfer rate. The governing equations of continuity, momentum and energy are solved by using finite-volume method. The obtained results are represented and discussed for following conditions: Reynolds number Re = 1 to 40, Prandtl number Pr = 7.01 and the gap distance S = 0.3L to 0.7L, where L is the cavity length. The main results are potted under the streamline and isotherm contours, the total drag coefficient and average Nusselt number of each cylinder is plotted versus studied parameters. It is found that the increase in the gap space distance between cylinders increases the heat transfer rate.
