Appendix A HEAT TRANSFER DATA This appendix contains data for use with problems in the text. Data have been gathered from various primary sources and text compilations as listed in the references. Emphasis is on presentation of the data in a manner suitable for computerized database manipulation. Properties of solids at room temperature are provided in a common framework. Parameters can be compared directly. Upon entrance into a database program, data can be sorted, for example, by rank order of thermal conductivity. Gases, liquids, and liquid metals are treated in a common way. Attention is given to providing properties at common temperatures (although some materials are provided with more detail than others). In addition, where numbers are multiplied by a factor of a power of 10 for display (as with viscosity) that same power is used for all materials for ease of comparison. For gases, coefficients of expansion are taken as the reciprocal of absolute temper­ ature in degrees kelvin. For liquids, actual values are used. For liquid metals, the first temperature entry corresponds to the melting point. The reader should note that there can be considerable variation in properties for classes of materials, especially for commercial products that may vary in composition from vendor to vendor, and natural materials (e.g., soil) for which variation in composition is expected. In addition, the reader may note some variations in quoted properties of common materials in different compilations. Thus, at the time the reader enters into serious profes­ sional work, he or she may find it advantageous to verify that data used correspond to the specific materials being used and are up to date.

    Convection Heat Transfer

    Convection Heat Transfer Heat transfer from a solid to the surrounding fluid Consider fluid motion Recall flow of water in a pipe Thermal Boundary Layer • A temperature profile similar to velocity profile. Temperature of pipe surface is kept constant. At the end of the thermal entry region, the boundary layer extends to the center of the pipe. Therefore, two boundary layers: hydrodynamic boundary layer and a thermal boundary layer. Analytical treatment is beyond the scope of this course. Instead we will use an empirical approach. Drawback of empirical approach: need to collect large amount of data. Reynolds Number: Nusselt Number: it is the dimensionless form of convective heat transfer coefficient. Consider a layer of fluid as shown If the fluid is stationary, then And Dividing Replacing l with a more general term for dimension, called the characteristic dimension, dc, we get hd N ≡ c Nu k Nusselt number is the enhancement in the rate of heat transfer caused by convection over the conduction mode. If NNu =1, then there is no improvement of heat transfer by convection over conduction. On the other hand, if NNu =10, then rate of convective heat transfer is 10 times the rate of heat transfer if the fluid was stagnant. Prandtl Number: It describes the thickness of the hydrodynamic boundary layer compared with the thermal boundary layer. It is the ratio between the molecular diffusivity of momentum to the molecular diffusivity of heat. kinematic viscosity υ N == Pr thermal diffusivity α μcp N = Pr k If NPr =1 then the thickness of the hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers will be the same.

    Laws of Similarity in Fluid Mechanics 21

    Laws of similarity in fluid mechanics B. Weigand1 & V. Simon2 1Institut für Thermodynamik der Luft- und Raumfahrt (ITLR), Universität Stuttgart, Germany. 2Isringhausen GmbH & Co KG, Lemgo, Germany. Abstract All processes, in nature as well as in technical systems, can be described by fundamental equations—the conservation equations. These equations can be derived using conservation princi- ples and have to be solved for the situation under consideration. This can be done without explicitly investigating the dimensions of the quantities involved. However, an important consideration in all equations used in fluid mechanics and thermodynamics is dimensional homogeneity. One can use the idea of dimensional consistency in order to group variables together into dimensionless parameters which are less numerous than the original variables. This method is known as dimen- sional analysis. This paper starts with a discussion on dimensions and about the pi theorem of Buckingham. This theorem relates the number of quantities with dimensions to the number of dimensionless groups needed to describe a situation. After establishing this basic relationship between quantities with dimensions and dimensionless groups, the conservation equations for processes in fluid mechanics (Cauchy and Navier–Stokes equations, continuity equation, energy equation) are explained. By non-dimensionalizing these equations, certain dimensionless groups appear (e.g. Reynolds number, Froude number, Grashof number, Weber number, Prandtl number). The physical significance and importance of these groups are explained and the simplifications of the underlying equations for large or small dimensionless parameters are described. Finally, some examples for selected processes in nature and engineering are given to illustrate the method. 1 Introduction If we compare a small leaf with a large one, or a child with its parents, we have the feeling that a ‘similarity’ of some sort exists.

  • Chapter 5 Dimensional Analysis and Similarity

    Chapter 5 Dimensional Analysis and Similarity

    Chapter 5 Dimensional Analysis and Similarity Motivation. In this chapter we discuss the planning, presentation, and interpretation of experimental data. We shall try to convince you that such data are best presented in dimensionless form. Experiments which might result in tables of output, or even mul- tiple volumes of tables, might be reduced to a single set of curves—or even a single curve—when suitably nondimensionalized. The technique for doing this is dimensional analysis. Chapter 3 presented gross control-volume balances of mass, momentum, and en- ergy which led to estimates of global parameters: mass flow, force, torque, total heat transfer. Chapter 4 presented infinitesimal balances which led to the basic partial dif- ferential equations of fluid flow and some particular solutions. These two chapters cov- ered analytical techniques, which are limited to fairly simple geometries and well- defined boundary conditions. Probably one-third of fluid-flow problems can be attacked in this analytical or theoretical manner. The other two-thirds of all fluid problems are too complex, both geometrically and physically, to be solved analytically. They must be tested by experiment. Their behav- ior is reported as experimental data. Such data are much more useful if they are ex- pressed in compact, economic form. Graphs are especially useful, since tabulated data cannot be absorbed, nor can the trends and rates of change be observed, by most en- gineering eyes. These are the motivations for dimensional analysis. The technique is traditional in fluid mechanics and is useful in all engineering and physical sciences, with notable uses also seen in the biological and social sciences.

    Teaching Students to Model Neural Circuits and Neural Networks Using an Electronic Spreadsheet Simulator

    Behavior Research Methods, Instruments, & Computers 1985, 17(2),339-344 SESSION XI TEACHING APPLICATIONS OF MICROCOMPUTERS N. John Castellan, Presider Teaching students to model neural circuits and neural networks using an electronic spreadsheet simulator THOMAS T. HEWETT Drexel University, Philadelphia. Pennsylvania An electronic spreadsheet simulator can be used to enable students to conduct simulated micro­ electrode recording experiments. In addition, it can be used both to let students explore the oper­ ation of models of hypothetical neural networks and to let them design and develop their own neural models. A recent paper (Smith et al., 1984) described the educa­ demand. This calculation cycle often involves recalcula­ tional goals of student ownership of a personal microcom­ tion of new values for previously entered formulas that puter at Drexel University. In a later paper, Hewett and depend upon still other values that may have been changed Perkey (1984) argued that many computer programs in­ during or since the last calculation cycle. The typical tended for instructional purposes are impractical or of little spreadsheet simulator also offers a number of program­ use when each student has a personal machine. However, ming language capabilities, including the ability to required student access to a personal computer creates new manipulate strings and to do iterative calculations. In ad­ opportunities for the use of microcomputer applications dition, built-in functions can be combined to produce a programs. One obvious, but nontrivial, example is the im­ limited plotting capability, thereby providing both a pact of the word processor on what is considered accept­ graphical and a numerical method for illustrating relational able written work, from lab reports to term papers.

    Leonhard Euler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 14 Leonhard Euler From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Leonhard Euler ( German pronunciation: [l]; English Leonhard Euler approximation, "Oiler" [1] 15 April 1707 – 18 September 1783) was a pioneering Swiss mathematician and physicist. He made important discoveries in fields as diverse as infinitesimal calculus and graph theory. He also introduced much of the modern mathematical terminology and notation, particularly for mathematical analysis, such as the notion of a mathematical function.[2] He is also renowned for his work in mechanics, fluid dynamics, optics, and astronomy. Euler spent most of his adult life in St. Petersburg, Russia, and in Berlin, Prussia. He is considered to be the preeminent mathematician of the 18th century, and one of the greatest of all time. He is also one of the most prolific mathematicians ever; his collected works fill 60–80 quarto volumes. [3] A statement attributed to Pierre-Simon Laplace expresses Euler's influence on mathematics: "Read Euler, read Euler, he is our teacher in all things," which has also been translated as "Read Portrait by Emanuel Handmann 1756(?) Euler, read Euler, he is the master of us all." [4] Born 15 April 1707 Euler was featured on the sixth series of the Swiss 10- Basel, Switzerland franc banknote and on numerous Swiss, German, and Died Russian postage stamps. The asteroid 2002 Euler was 18 September 1783 (aged 76) named in his honor. He is also commemorated by the [OS: 7 September 1783] Lutheran Church on their Calendar of Saints on 24 St. Petersburg, Russia May – he was a devout Christian (and believer in Residence Prussia, Russia biblical inerrancy) who wrote apologetics and argued Switzerland [5] forcefully against the prominent atheists of his time.

    Exact Solution of Boundary Value Problem Describing the Convective Heat Transfer in Fully-Developed Laminar Flow Through a Circular Conduit

Technol. 40 (4), 840-853, Jul - Aug. 2018 Original Article Exact solution of boundary value problem describing the convective heat transfer in fully-developed laminar flow through a circular conduit Ali Belhocine1* and Wan Zaidi Wan Omar2 1Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Sciences and the Technology of Oran, L. P. 1505 El – Mnaouer, Oran, 31000 Algeria 2Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, UTM Skudai, Johor, 81310 Malaysia Received: 17 September 2016; Revised: 2 March 2017; Accepted: 8 May 2017 Abstract This paper proposes anexact solution in terms of an infinite series to the classical Graetz problem represented by a nonlinear partial differential equation considering two space variables, two boundary conditions and one initial condition. The mathematical derivation is based on the method of separation of variables whose several stages are elaborated to reach the solution of the Graetz problem. MATLAB was used to compute the eigenvalues of the differential equation as well as the coefficient series. However, both the Nusselt number as an infinite series solution and the Graetz number are based on the heat transfer coefficient and the heat flux from the wall to the fluid. In addition, the analytical solution was compared to the numerical values obtained by the same author using a FORTRAN program, showing that the orthogonal collocation method gave better results. It is important to note that the analytical solution is in good agreement with published numerical data. Keywords:

    Forced Convection Heat Transfer Convection Is the Mechanism of Heat Transfer Through a Fluid in the Presence of Bulk Fluid Motion

    Forced Convection Heat Transfer Convection is the mechanism of heat transfer through a fluid in the presence of bulk fluid motion. Convection is classified as natural (or free) and forced convection depending on how the fluid motion is initiated. In natural convection, any fluid motion is caused by natural means such as the buoyancy effect, i.e. the rise of warmer fluid and fall the cooler fluid. Whereas in forced convection, the fluid is forced to flow over a surface or in a tube by external means such as a pump or fan. Mechanism of Forced Convection Convection heat transfer is complicated since it involves fluid motion as well as heat conduction. The fluid motion enhances heat transfer (the higher the velocity the higher the heat transfer rate). The rate of convection heat transfer is expressed by Newton’s law of cooling: q hT T W / m 2 conv s Qconv hATs T W The convective heat transfer coefficient h strongly depends on the fluid properties and roughness of the solid surface, and the type of the fluid flow (laminar or turbulent). V∞ V∞ T∞ Zero velocity Qconv at the surface. Qcond Solid hot surface, Ts Fig. 1: Forced convection. It is assumed that the velocity of the fluid is zero at the wall, this assumption is called no‐ slip condition. As a result, the heat transfer from the solid surface to the fluid layer adjacent to the surface is by pure conduction, since the fluid is motionless. Thus, M.
