Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical Calculation of Three-Dimensional Turbulent Natural Convection in a Cubical Enclosure Using a Two-Equation Model for Turbulence
TL;DR: Etude d'une cavite chauffee par le bas and refroidie sur une portion d'un paroi verticale, les autres parois etant isolees.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finite-difference computation of the wave motion generated in a gas by a rapid increase in the bounding temperature
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented numerical results for both a discrete step in wall temperature and a bounded exponential rate of increase, which were in good qualitative agreement with prior experimental measurements of the shape, amplitude and rate of decay of the wave in terms of pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical computation of natural convection for a low-Prandtl-number fluid in a shallow rectangular region heated from below
TL;DR: In this article, a model consisting of three-directional mass, momentum and energy balances was proposed for a low-Prandtl-number fluid, and the transient response after a step increase of lower-wall temperature was at first a regular oscillation, which then evolved to a series of long rolls with their axes in one direction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laminar film condensation
TL;DR: In this paper, extended Nusselt solutions for laminar film condensation on a vertical surface are presented in closed form, and hence applicable for arbitrary parametric values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural convection in an inclined circular cylindrical annulus heated and cooled on its end plates
TL;DR: In this paper, natural convection in an inclined annular space was studied experimentally and theoretically and the flow pattern was portrayed with streaklines computed numerically using a three-dimensional model and also with photographs.
