Journal ArticleDOI
Laminar mixed convection with viscous dissipation in a vertical channel
TL;DR: In this paper, combined free and forced convection flow in a parallel-plate vertical channel is analyzed in the fully developed region by taking into account the effect of viscous dissipation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperbolic heat conduction and local equilibrium: a second law analysis
Antonio Barletta,Enzo Zanchini +1 more
TL;DR: An analysis of the compatibility of Cattaneo-Vernotte's constitutive equation for the heat flux density vector with the hypothesis of local thermodynamic equilibrium is presented in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the choice of the reference temperature for fully-developed mixed convection in a vertical channel
Antonio Barletta,Enzo Zanchini +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the choice of the reference fluid temperature on the solutions of fully-developed mixed-convection problems in a plane vertical channel is studied and an analytical solution for the boundary condition of uniform wall heat fluxes is obtained by choosing the mean fluid temperature in each cross section as the local reference temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fully developed laminar forced convection in circular ducts for power-law fluids with viscous dissipation
TL;DR: In this article, the asymptotic Nusselt number and the temperature field for the axial wall heat flux distributions which yield a thermally developed region are determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dual mixed convection flows in a vertical channel
TL;DR: In this article, the existence of dual solutions of the local balance equations is pointed out and the mechanical and thermal characteristics of the dual flow regimes are discussed in detail both analytically and numerically.
