Abstract: An inverse forced convection problem was studied in this paper. The unknown space-dependent heat flux at the outer boundary of a circular pipe was identified from the temperature measurements ...

Abstract: The multiscale problems in the thermal and fluid science are classified into two categories: multiscale process and multiscale system. The meanings of the two categories are described. Examples ...

Abstract: A method for design and rating of shell-and-tube heat exchanger with helical baffles (STHXHB) has been developed in present study based on the public literatures and the widely used Bell–Delaware ...

Abstract: A fast and efficient method based on the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) technique for predicting fluid flow and heat transfer problems is proposed in this paper. POD is first applied ...

Abstract: An improved volume of fluid method called the accurate density and viscosity volume of fluid (ADV-VOF) method is proposed to solve two-phase flow problems. The method has the following features: ...

Abstract: Pool boiling heat transfer coefficients of R134a with different lubricant mass fractions for one smooth tube and five enhanced tubes were tested at a saturation temperature of 6°C. The ...
