Temperature Depression

The thermal performance of heat sinks is commonly measured using heat sources with spring loaded thermocouples contained within plastic poppets that press against the heat sink to measure its surface temperature where the heat is applied. However, when the thickness of the heat sink base is small or the effective heat transfer coefficient on the fin side is large, the temperature at the thermocouple contact point is less than the nearby temperature where the heat source contacts the heat sink. This temperature depression under the contact thermocouples has been studied. The heat conduction equation is solved analytically to determine the temperature distribution around the contact thermocouple using a one-dimensional approximation and also a detailed two-dimensional approach. Two dimensionless groups are identified that characterize the detailed two-dimensional solution. The combination of the two dimensionless groups also appears in the one dimensional solution. The temperature distributions are validated using finite difference numerical solutions. It is shown that the one dimensional solution is the limit of the detailed solution when one of the dimensionless groups tends to infinity. A simple equation is provided to estimate the temperature measurement error on the heat sink surface.

This paper presents a two-dimensional analysis of the effect of precursory cooling on conduction-controlled rewetting of a vertical surface, whose initial temperature is higher than the sputtering temperature. Precursory cooling refers to the cooling caused by the droplet-vapor mixture in the region immediately ahead of the wet front, and is described mathematically by two dimensionless constants which characterize its magnitude and the region of influence. The physical model developed to account for precursory cooling consists of an infinitely extended vertical surface with the dry region ahead of the wet front characterized by an exponentially decaying heat flux and the wet region behind the moving film-front associated with a constant heat transfer coefficient. Apart from the two dimensionless constants describing the extent of precursory cooling, the physical problem is characterized by three dimensionless groups: the Peclet number or the dimensionless wetting velocity, the Biot number and a dimensionless temperature. Limiting solutions for large and small Peclet numbers have been obtained utilizing the Wiener-Hopf technique coupled with appropriate kernel substitutions. A semiempirical matching relation is then devised for the entire range of Peclet numbers. Existing experimental data with variable flow rates at atmospheric pressure are very closely correlated by the present model. Finally a comparison is drawn between the one-dimensional limit of the present analysis and the corresponding one-dimensional solution obtained by treating the dry region ahead of the wet front characterized by an exponentially decaying heat transfer coefficient.

The Impact

Numerical solutions of the exact equations for axisymmetric wave propagation are obtained with continuous and discontinuous loadings at the impact end of an elastic bar. The solution for a step change in stress agrees with experimental data near the end of the bar and exhibits a region that agrees with the one-dimensional strain approximation. The solution for an applied harmonic displacement closely approaches the Pochhammer-Chree solution at distances removed from the point of application. Reflections from free and rigid-lubricated ends are studied. The solutions after reflection are compared with the elementary one-dimensional stress approximation.

For the understanding of longshore currents along a natural beach, the effects of bottom unevenness are considered to be important, especially for the flow in the swash zone. Currents in the swash zone are strongly influenced by the bed slope because the effect of gravity overwhelms the effect of the depth change. In the present paper, we investigate these effects and focus on waves propagating from offshore over a flat ocean basin of constant depth to a beach with a sloping wavy bottom. The waves are incident at a small angle to the beach normal, and the bed slope in the alongshore direction is varied slowly. To simplify the problem, only cnoidal waves and solitary waves are considered and the bed level is varied sinusoidally in the longshore direction.A perturbation method is applied to the two-dimensional nonlinear shallow water equation (two-dimensional NLSWE) for the wave motion in order to generate a more simplified model of wave dynamics consisting of a one-dimensional NLSWE for the direction normal to the beach and an equation for the alongshore direction. The first equation, the one-dimensional NLSWE, is solved by Carrier & Greenspan's transformation. The solution of the second one is found by extending Brocchini & Peregrine's solution for a flat beach. Two methods for the solution of the one- dimensional NLSWE are introduced in order to get a solution applicable to large-amplitude swash motions, where the amplitude is comparable to the beach length. One is the Maclaurin expansion of the solution around the moving shoreline, and the other is Riemann's representation of the solution, which exactly satisfies the one-dimensional NLSWE and the boundary conditions. After doing a consistency check by confirming that Riemann's method, a numerical solution, agrees with the exact solution for an infinitely long, sloping beach, we assumed that the Maclaurin series solution can also describe wave motion in the swash zone properly not only for this model but also for our ‘wavy’, finite beach model.The solution obtained from the Maclaurin series is then plugged into the equation for the alongshore direction to calculate the shore currents induced by wave run-up and back-wash motions, where a ‘weakly two-dimensional solution’ is derived from geometrical considerations. The results show that since the water depth near the shoreline is comparable to the bed level fluctuations, the flow is strongly affected by the bed unevenness, leading to recognizable changes in shoreline movement and the time-averaged velocity and the mass flux of the flow in the swash zone. More specifically, the inhomogeneity of the alongshore mass flux generates offshore currents because of the continuity condition for the fluid mass.

The Kadomtsev-Petviashili (KP) equation is derived for weakly nonlinear ion acoustic waves in a magnetized dusty plasma in the presence of nonthermal electrons. Soliton solutions are obtained in both the one-dimensional and two-dimensional framework. For the one-dimensional soliton solution the ‘tanh’ method is considered while the two-dimensional solution is obtained by a method introduced by S.V. Manacov et al., Phys. Lett. A 63, 205 (1977). It is found that in case of the onedimensional solution, both compressive and rarefactive solitary waves exist which could be obtained depending on the ratio of the electron and ion density. It is also seen that the nonthermal distribution of electrons has some significant effect in the shape of both the one-dimensional and two-dimensional solitary wave.

The focus of this paper is a strategy for making a prediction at a point where a function cannot be evaluated. The key idea is to take advantage of the fact that prediction is needed at one point and not in the entire domain. This paper explores the possibility of predicting a multidimensional function using multiple one-dimensional lines converging on the inaccessible point. The multidimensional approximation is thus transformed into several one-dimensional approximations, which provide multiple estimates at the inaccessible point. The Kriging model is adopted in this paper for the one-dimensional approximation, estimating not only the function value but also the uncertainty of the estimate at the inaccessible point. Bayesian inference is then used to combine multiple predictions along lines. We evaluated the numerical performance of the proposed approach using eight-dimensional and 100-dimensional functions in order to illustrate the usefulness of the method for mitigating the curse of dimensionality in surrogate-based predictions. Finally, we applied the method of converging lines to approximate a two-dimensional drag coefficient function. The method of converging lines proved to be more accurate, robust, and reliable than a multidimensional Kriging surrogate for single-point prediction.

Multidimensional Models

In addition to the one-dimensional solutions of a multi-species benchmark problem (BM3) presented earlier (Rittmann et al., 2004), we offer solutions using two-dimensional (2-D) models. Both 2-D models (called here DN and CP) used numerical solutions to BM3 based on a similar mathematical framework of the one-dimensional AQUASIM-built models submitted by Wanner (model W) and Morgenroth (model M1), described in detail elsewhere (Rittmann et al., 2004). The CP model used differential equations to simulate substrate gradients and biomass growth and a particle-based approach to describe biomass division and biofilm growth. The DN model simulated substrate and biomass using a cellular automaton approach. For several conditions stipulated in BM3, the multidimensional models provided very similar results to the 1-D models in terms of bulk substrate concentrations and fluxes into the biofilm. The similarity can be attributed to the definition of BM3, which restricted the problem to a flat biofilm in contact with a completely mixed liquid phase, and therefore, without any salient characteristics to be captured in a multidimensional domain. On the other hand, the models predicted significantly different accumulations of the different types of biomass, likely reflecting differences in the way biomass spread within the biofilm is simulated.

This chapter develops a Euclidean, two-dimensional, regions-based theory. As with the semi-Aristotelian account in Chapter 2, the goal here is to recover the now orthodox Dedekind–Cantor continuum on a point-free basis. The chapter derives the Archimedean property for a class of readily postulated orientations of certain special regions, what are called “generalized quadrilaterals” (intended as parallelograms), by which the entire space is covered. Then the chapter generalizes this to arbitrary orientations, and then establishes an isomorphism between the space and the usual point-based one. As in the one-dimensional case, this is done on the basis of axioms which contain no explicit “extremal clause”, and we have no axiom of induction other than ordinary numerical (mathematical) induction.

This paper presents two algorithms for mutual exclusion on optical bus architectures including the folded one-dimensional bus, the one-dimensional array with pipelined buses (1D APPB), and the two-dimensional array with pipelined buses (2D APPB). The first algorithm guarantees mutual exclusion, while the second guarantees both mutual exclusion and fairness. Both algorithms exploit the predictability of propagation delays in optical buses.

A first-order differential equation of Green's function, at the origin G(0), for the one-dimensional lattice is derived by simple recurrence relation. Green's function at site (m) is then calculated in terms of G(0). A simple recurrence relation connecting the lattice Green's function at the site (m, n) and the first derivative of the lattice Green's function at the site (m ± 1, n) is presented for the two-dimensional lattice, a differential equation of second order in G(0, 0) is obtained. By making use of the latter recurrence relation, lattice Green's function at an arbitrary site is obtained in closed form. Finally, the phase shift and scattering cross-section are evaluated analytically and numerically for one- and two-impurities.
