Particle Arrestance Modeling Within Fibrous Porous Media
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present study, particle growth on individual fibers within a fibrous medium is examined as flow conditions transition beyond the Stokes flow regime. Employing a numerical model that ...
Restrictions on the Validity of the Thermal Conditions at the Porous-Fluid Interface—An Exact Solution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermal conditions at the porous-fluid interface under local thermal nonequilibrium (LTNE) conditions are analyzed in this work. Exact solutions are derived for both the fluid and solid temperature ...
Transient Aspects of Heat Flux Bifurcation in Porous Media: An Exact Solution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The transient thermal response of a packed bed is investigated analytically. A local thermal nonequilibrium model is used to represent the energy transport within the porous medium. The heat ...
Human Eye Response to Thermal Disturbances
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Human eye is one of the most sensitive parts of the body when exposed to a thermal heat flux. Since there is no barrier (such as skin) to protect the eye against the absorption of an ...
