Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Porous Thrust Bearing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of mass injection on the heat generated due to viscous dissipation in a porous thrust bearing is investigated analytically by solving the governing boundary layer equations. Numerical ...
Rupture of Thin Power-Law Liquid Film on a Cylinder
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The dynamic rupture process of a thin power-law type non-Newtonian liquid film on a cylinder has been analyzed by investigating the stability to finite amplitude disturbances. The dynamics of ...
Transverse Curvature Effect on the Flow Field in a Laminar Cylindrical Wall Jet

Laminar Wall Jet of a Non-Newtonian Fluid Over a Curved Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analysis is presented for the flow of a laminar, two-dimensional, incompressible, non-Newtonian fluid jet flowing over a curved surface. A unique similarity solution is obtained for both ...
Effect of Electrostatic Field on Film Rupture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nonlinear thin film rupture has been analyzed by investigating the stability of films under the influence of a nonuniform electrostatic field to finite amplitude disturbances. The dynamics of ...

Natural Convective Boundary-Layer Flow Over a Vertical Cylinder Embedded in a Porous Medium Saturated With a Nanofluid
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a boundary layer analysis is presented for the natural convection past a vertical cylinder in a porous medium saturated with a nanofluid. Numerical results for friction factor, ...
Magnetohydrodynamic Braking
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A viscous and electrically conductive fluid separates two parallel plates. A magnetic field of intensity B0 is applied perpendicular to the plates. The top plate squeezes downward whereas the ...
