Steady thermo-solutocapillary convection in a rectangular cavity with deformable free surface under microgravity condition is numerically studied, where level set method is employed to capture the free surface deforma...
Simultaneous free convection above and below a uniformly heated horizontal plate has been widely investigated,both in the case of an isothermal surface,and of a uniformly heated surface,but always assuming only air as...

Cooling technology of gas turbine blades,primarily ensured via internal forced convection,is aimed towards withdrawing thermal energy from the airfoil.To promote heat exchange,the walls of internal cooling passages ar...
In the present paper, the effect of variable fluid properties (density, viscosity, thermal conductivity and specific heat) on the convection in the classical Rayleigh-Benard problem is investigated. The investigatio...
This paper is devoted to investigate the influences of thermal dispersion and magnetic field on a hot semi-infinite vertical porous plate embedded in a saturated Darcy-Forchheimer-Brinkman porous medium. The coefficie...

The present investigation analyzes the effects of major geometrical modifications to the interior of a convectioncooled gas turbine rotor blade. The main focus lies on the flow of the leading edge channels and the imp...
This paper discusses a mathematical model for a liquid phase reacting flow occurring at the cathode of a patent pending novel fuel cell geometry, where a non homogeneous catalysis carried by gold and Prussian Blue, wi...
An experiment has been carried out to investigate the local convective heat transfer from a horizontal circular copper tube in an acoustic cavitation field. The effects of acoustical parameters (including sound source...
