Abstract In power engineering, studies related to the distribution of temperatures and velocities in fluids that move, for example, in pipelines or channels, are of theoretical and practical importance. The presented work displays the results of the development of an approximate analytical method for mathematical modeling of the process of heat transfer in laminar flows. By the example of solving the problem of heat transfer in a flat channel with a Couette flow, the main provisions of the method are considered. The combined use of the integral heat balance method and the collocation method made it possible to obtain an analytical solution that is simple in form. The obtained accuracy of solutions depends on the number N of points of the spatial variable at which the original differential equation is exactly satisfied.

Using the integral form of the laminar boundary layer thermal energy equation, a method is developed which permits calculation of thermal boundary layer development under more general conditions than heretofore treated in the literature. The local Stanton number is expressed in terms of the thermal convection thickness which reflects the cumulative effects of variable free stream velocity, surface temperature, and injection rate on boundary layer development. The boundary layer calculation is combined with the wall heat transfer problem through a coolant heat balance which includes the effect of axial conduction in the wall. The highly coupled boundary layer and wall heat balance equations are solved simultaneously using relatively straightforward numerical integration techniques. Calculated results exhibit good agreement with existing analytical and experimental results. The present results indicate that nonisothermal wall and axial conduction effects significantly affect local heat transfer rates.

Objective: Defi nition of slope gradient for station track profi le elevation at which self-induced runningoff of loose running stock. Methods: Simulation of rolling stock movement based on analytical solution of differential equation of equilibrium of cut of wagons. Cut of wagons on station track is treated as a solid on a gradient plane with a mass equal to the mass of the cut of wagons. Track profi le elevation is approximated by piecewise-linear right line. Results: The paper shows that hopper wagons have the highest probability of self-induced running-off due to high air resistance coeffi cient. For three-element profi le the hypothetic wind speed at which running-off of wagons is possible remains relatively low, about 14 metres per second, which leaves the problem of effective fastening of wagons at stations still current. Practical importance: The solution obtained permits evaluating the probability of running-off of loose rolling stock under the action of gravity and under the impact of wind loading, as well as refi ne the norms for fastening of wagons at a station. The proposed calculation scheme also permits gauging the strength with which moving wagons would impact the backing thrust in case it is installed at the end of a track section.

In this paper, mathematical modeling of stack-driven natural ventilation in buildings is performed. Stack-driven natural ventilation is due to only buoyancy forces generated by the presence of heat sources at the bottom of the room. There are two cases have been taken: (1) Transient natural ventilation in fully insulated buildings and (2) Transient natural ventilation in partially insulated buildings. In first case, it is assumed that there is no heat transfer through walls and roof and only heat transfer through openings of door and window. Also there is a distributed heat source at the floor. Since the convection is at a high Rayleigh number, the room can be assumed to have a well-mixed interior. The complex heat balance equations are solved analytically for the internal temperature.

With the development of laser technologies and the ability to carry out processing steps under extreme conditions (ul-trahigh temperatures, pressures and their gradients), the interest in studying the processes that occur under locally non-equilibrium conditions has grown significantly. The key directions for the description of locally non-equilibrium pro-cesses include thermodynamic, kinetic and phenomenological ones. The locally non-equilibrium transfer equations can also be derived from the Boltzmann equation by using the theory of random walks and molecular-kinetic methods. It should be noted that some options of locally non-equilibrium processes lead to conflicting results. This study aims to develop a method for mathematical modeling of locally nonequilibrium heat conduction processes in solids, which allows determining their temperature with high accuracy during fast and high-intensity heat transfer processes. As applied to heat transfer processes in solids, a generalized heat equation that takes into account the relaxation properties of materials is formulated. The exact analytical solution is obtained using the Fourier method of separation of variables. The methodology for mathematical modeling of locally non-equilibrium transfer processes based on modified conservation laws has been developed. The generalized differential heat equation which allows performing N-fold relaxation of the heat flow and temperature in the modified heat balance equation has been formulated. For the first time, an exact analytical solution to the unsteady heat conduction problem for an infinite plate was obtained taking into account many-fold relaxation. The analysis of the solution to the boundary value problem of locally nonequilibrium heat conduction enabled to conclude that it is impossible to instantly has establish a boundary condition of the first kind. It has been demonstrated that each of the following terms in the relaxed heat equation has an ever smaller effect on the heat transfer process. The obtained results can be used by the scientific and technical personnel of organizations and higher educational institutions in the study of fuel ignition processes, the development of laser processing of materials, the design of highly efficient heat transfer equipment and the description of fast-flowing heat transfer processes.
