Abstract: This paper reports the numerical investigations for steady-state natural convection in power-law fluids inside a square enclosure embedded with bottom discrete heaters. The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is employed to ...

Abstract: Hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed flow of a Sisko fluid through a cylindrical tube has been investigated considering the effect of viscous dissipation. The effect of the convective term in the energy equation ...

Abstract: The present investigation reports the rewetting phenomenon by bottom flooding in vertical pipes using both water and nanofluid as coolant. The transient temperature response of rewetted surface indicates that rewetting ...

Abstract: Though the interaction between cardiovascular functions and thermoregulation is enormously complex yet immensely important, very little effort to date has been spent to simulate it from a system point of view. The present ...

Abstract: In this investigation, we explore the profound impact of adiabatic partitions on heat transport within a square Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection enclosure characterized by surface roughness on the lower hot and upper cold ...

Abstract: The 22nd National and 11th ISHMTASME Heat and Mass Transfer Conference was held in India at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur campus during the period December 28–31, 2013. The topics included all aspects of ...

Abstract: The 17 papers included in this special issue are focused in various current topics and fundamental physics relevant to heat and mass transfer. A companion special issue is being taken out in the ASME Journal of Thermal ...
