Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of entropy generation due to natural convection in square enclosures with multiple discrete heat sources
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the entropy generation due to natural convection in an enclosure heated locally from below with two isoflux sources and determined the flow and temperature fields by numerical simulation of two-dimensional laminar conservation equations for mass, momentum and energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of entropy generation in hydrogen-enriched methane-air propagating triple flames
TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical analysis based on the second law of thermodynamics is used to examine the propagation of laminar H2-enriched CH4-air flames.
Journal ArticleDOI
A scaling analysis to characterize thermomagnetic convection
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider a square enclosure filled with a ferrofluid that is under the influence of an external magnetic field created by a line dipole and show that the height-averaged Nusselt number scales with the magnetic Rayleigh number as Nu ∼ Ra m 0. 25.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural convection in a bi-heater configuration of passive electronic cooling
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report steady state simulation of natural convection in a horizontal, planar square cavity with two discrete heat sources (representing power dissipating semiconductor devices in electronics/MEMS applications), flush-mounted on its bottom wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat Transfer Enhancement and Entropy Generation in a Square Enclosure in the Presence of Adiabatic and Isothermal Blocks
TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer and entropy generation characteristics are numerically investigated in the presence of single and double obstructive blocks within a square enclosure, and it is found that the adiabatic block(s) enhance the heat transfer marginally up to a critical size in a convection-dominated regime.
