Computational Analysis of Convection Heat Transfer

Download or read book Computational Analysis of Convection Heat Transfer written by Bengt Sundén and published by Computational Mechanics. This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of reviews of methodology in the computational analysis of convection heat transfer, together with important applications from engineering. Perspectives are given on boundary element methodology, the finite element version of the stream function-vorticity formulation and stabilization techniques for finite element solutions, while another chapter deals with the possibility of obtaining analytical solutions via algebraic manipulators. With regard to applications, developments in modelling of solidification processes are presented, and approaches to natural convection in open channels, combined convection in horizontal flows and forced convection in ducts are also covered. Finally, the perfection of modern numerical modalities is demonstrated by a chapter on the thermal analysis of anti-icing devices for aircraft wings.
