Abstract: The unsteady heat-transfer problems of combined free and forced convection of a fully developed laminar flow of a heat-generating fluid in a circular tube with constant axial temperature gradient ...

Abstract: The Stefan problem of a semi-infinite material with arbitrarily prescribed initial and flux conditions is studied. When the surface temperature is initially different from the freezing temperature, ...

Abstract: The governing equation of turbulent lubrication in three dimensions, equivalent to the Reynolds equation of laminar lubrication, is derived. The problem of a slider bearing with no side leakage ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the heat-transfer problem of laminar forced convection in noncircular pipes with arbitrary heat generation and prescribed heat flux at the wall. This class of ...

Abstract: The Stefan problem in a semi-infinite region with arbitrarily prescribed initial and boundary conditions, subject to a condition of the mixed type at the interface is investigated. To establish ...

Abstract: The paper is concerned with the variational formulation in studies of gasdynamic lubrication. It is shown that Reynolds’ equation of lubrication is equivalent to a set of Lagrange equations ...

Abstract: The problem of ablation by frictional heating in a semi-infinite solid with arbitrarily prescribed initial and boundary conditions is investigated. The study includes all convective motions caused ...

Abstract: The ablation problem of a semi-infinite solid, moving at a constant speed parallel to its surface, is investigated. The study includes all induced motions caused by the density differences of ...

Abstract: The problem of freezing or melting of a polymorphous material in a semi-infinite region with arbitrarily prescribed initial and boundary conditions is studied. Exact solutions of the problem are ...
