Journal ArticleDOI
Flow and Heat Transfer Over a Flat Plate With Uniformly Distributed, Vectored Surface Mass Transfer
T. S. Chen,Ephraim M Sparrow +1 more
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural convection in a vertical channel vented to the ambient through an aperture in the channel wall
TL;DR: In this paper, a one-sided-heated, vertical channel in the presence of a vent opening in the unheated wall was studied both experimentally and numerically, and numerical solutions provided information on both the local and average Nusselt numbers, cross-channel temperature profiles and the rates of fluid flow through the opening at the bottom of the channel and through the vent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Models and solutions for isothermal and nonisothermal evaporation from a partially filled tube
G. A. Nunez,Ephraim M Sparrow +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of depression of the temperature at the liquid surface on the evaporation rate of a circular tube in both isothermal and non-isothermal conditions, and found that when radiative transfer was activated, the temperature depression diminished and the Sherwood number markedly increased.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experiments on the breakdown of laminar flow in a parallel-plate channel
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of entrance section geometry and superposed sources of disturbance on the minimum Reynolds number marking the breakdown of laminar flow was investigated experimentally, and the results showed that the presence of stationary sources in the upstream plenum chamber and in the entrance section does not have a significant effect on the breakdown Reynolds number.
Journal ArticleDOI
A DOS-enhanced numerical simulation of heat transfer and fluid flow through an array of offset fins with conjugate heating in the bounding solid
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Design of Simulation (DOS) method to guide and enhance a numerical simulation of fluid flow and heat transfer through offset-fin arrays which form the interior geometry of a cold plate.
