Abstract: This paper reports the average Nusselt number for steady, laminar natural convection between a vertical surface and otherwise quiescent pseudoplastic and dilatant fluids under a constant and uniform surface heat flux ...

Abstract: This study details the derivation of a length correction term for computing the heat transfer performance of one-dimensional, straight, convecting-tip fins using the insulated-tip fin solution. Use of this corrected length ...

Abstract: This article reports the results of a numerical computation of the length and total pressure drop in the entrance region of a circular tube with laminar flows of pseudoplastic and dilatant fluids at high Reynolds numbers ...

Abstract: This study reformulates Murray's wellknown principle of minimum work as applied to the cardiovascular system to include the effects of the shearthinning rheology of blood. The viscous behavior is described using the extended ...

Abstract: This paper reports the results of a numerical study that determined the Nusselt number for hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed, laminar, dissipative flows of pseudoplastic and dilatant fluids through circular ...
