Synopsis

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.

About this title

Synopsis

Increasing light is being shed on the computational analysis of convection heat transfer central to many engineering problems. International contributors offer ten in-depth reviews of the current status of fundamental principles and progress in increasingly complex applications. The initial chapter covers basic issues and the latest perspectives on
