Quasi-Steady Water Droplet Heat- and Mass-Transfer With Ventilation, Blowing, and Radiation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A quasi-explicit analytical model of quasi-steady (QS) water droplet heat- and mass-transfer, including radiation, in a prescribed gaseous environment with velocity slip, i.e., gas flow around the droplet, and high ...
Mixed Boundary Layer Skin Friction and Heat Transfer With Abrupt Transition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the form that is commonly published in introductory textbooks, the classical problem of skin friction and heat transfer for a mixed laminar–turbulent boundarylayer flow on a flatplate with an abrupt transition is ...
Water Evaporation and Condensation in Air With Radiation: The Self-Similar Spalding Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Several simple ways of improving the accuracy of Spalding model predictions over common textbook conventions for air/water evaporation/condensation problems are illustrated using open-literature examples. First is the ...
Theoretical Modeling of Levitated Clusters of Water Droplets Stabilized by Infrared Irradiation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper shows how clusters of radiation-stabilized water droplets levitated in an upward flow of air and water vapor above a heated water surface can be modeled using Spalding's self-similarity theory of heat and mass ...
Temperature Effect on Phase Transition Radiation of Water
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Infrared radiation associated with vaporliquid phase transition of water is investigated using a suspension of cloud droplets and midinfrared (IR) (3–5 خ¼m) radiation absorption measurements. Recent measurements and ...
Radiation-Induced Condensational Growth and Cooling of Cloud-Sized Mist Droplets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A laboratory-experimental and theoretical-modeling investigation was conducted of isobaric, radiative cooling of cloud-like water mists to a remote heat sink, similar to what can happen at the tops of clouds. For mist ...
