Buoyancy-Induced Flows And Transport
TL;DR: In this paper, a general formulation of buoyancy-induced fluid flows is presented, including external Vertical Thermally Induced Flows and Vertical Axisymmetric Flows.
Journal ArticleDOI
The nature of vertical natural convection flows resulting from the combined buoyancy effects of thermal and mass diffusion
Benjamin Gebhart,L Pera +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a set of Boussinesq approximations were shown to have solutions of similarity form for combined buoyancy effects, for vertical flows adjacent to surfaces and in plumes, and the resulting equations were integrated for air and water for various practical values of the Schmidt number.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of viscous dissipation in natural convection
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of viscous dissipation in natural convection is considered for vertical surfaces subject to both isothermal and uniform-flux surface conditions, and the first temperature perturbation function is calculated for Prandtl numbers from 10−2 to 104.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new density relation for pure and saline water
TL;DR: In this article, an equation for the density of pure and saline water was developed and the density variation was fitted in the temperature, salinity and pressure ranges to 20°C, 40%, and 1000 bars abs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organ pipe radiant modes of periodic micromachined silicon surfaces.
TL;DR: A study of emittance from deep gratings of heavily phosphorus doped silicon with pronounced resonant periodicities with a characteristic length of ∼42 µm and the resonant amplitude of the s polarization does not depend significantly on Λ, but it does for the p polarization.
