In this article, an unsteady free convection flow of MHD viscous fluid over a vertical rotating plate with Newtonian heating and heat generation is analyzed. The dimensionless governing equations for temperature and velocity fields are solved using the Laplace transform technique. Analytical solutions are obtained for the temperature and components of velocity fields. The obtained solutions satisfy the initial and boundary conditions. Some physical aspects of flow parameters on the fluid motion are presented graphically.

Thermally driven microfluidics, that is, flow that is driven by a temperature gradient, has applications from lab-on-a-chip to electronics cooling. Development of such devices requires tools to predict and probe temperature and velocity fields. We have developed analytical, numerical, and experimental analysis tools for design and characterization of thermally driven microfluidic systems. We demonstrate these tools through the analysis of two different systems: an electrothermal microstirring biochip, and a high aspect heat pipe for cooling. First, a numerical model is developed for temperature and velocity fields, in a hybrid electrothermal-buoyancy microstirring device. An analytical tool, the electrothermal Rayleigh number, is used to further explore the relative importance of electrothermal and buoyancy driven flow. Finally, two experimental thermometry techniques are described: fluorescence thermometry and infrared thermometry. These analytical, numerical, and experimental tools are useful in the design of thermally driven microfluidic systems, as demonstrated here through the development and analysis of microstirring and heat pipe systems.

A numerical analysis is performed to study the characteristics of heat transfer from a block heat source module at different angles in two-dimensional cabinets. Great efforts are carried out to conduct the effects of thermal interaction between the air steams inside and outside the cabinet on the conjugate conduction–natural convection phenomena. Moreover, the enhancement of cooling performance of the heat source module through the construction of air vents on cabinet wall is rigorously examined. The computation domain covers the cabinet and the surrounding area, and the temperature and velocity fields of the cabinet and surrounding area are solved simultaneously. Results show that the thermal interaction between the airs inside and outside the cabinet, the module angle and vent position can significantly affect the transfer characteristics. Comparing the results for cases with and without the consideration of thermal interaction between the air streams, the difference in hot spot temperature of module can be up to 26% for Pr = 0.7, Kbf = Kpf = Kwf = 100, 105 ≦ Ra ≦ 107 and φ = 0°, 90°, 270°. The maximum reduction in hot spot temperature is about 41% when two air vents are constructed on cabinet wall. The variation of module angle results in the maximum difference of the hot spot temperature is 15% for closed cabinet, and 10% for ventilated cabinet.

In this paper, measurements are presented of the temperature and velocity fields about two PCBs, with an array of five equally spaced two dimensional ribs. The ribs are two dimensional approximations of the Super Ball Grid Array (SuperBGA) package from Amkor electronics. The temperature and Nusselt number distributions are measured using Digital Moire´ Subtraction Interferometry and PIV is used to measure the velocity field. The effect of substrate conductivity is examined, and the level of thermal interaction is quantified. It is found that substrate conductivity significantly alters the induced boundary layer flow and also the recirculating vortex structure external to it. It is also found that there is a trade-off between a downstream component being heated by the thermal energy of the plume from a lower component, and cooled by the kinetic energy of that plume. The spacing to length ratio, above which the cooling effect is greater, is three for components mounted on a board with a high effective conductivity (15 W/m K). The ratio is greater than three for PCBs with lower effective conductivities. Previous work in the literature indicates a ratio greater than four for components mounted flush with an adiabatic substrate.

This work investigates the feasibility and thermal comfort of using natural ventilation in order to achieve thermal comfort in a handball arena with realistic dimensions and a full occupation of 4300 persons in the Gulf area. The work numerically simulates the temperature and velocity fields inside the full arena using computational fluid dynamics techniques at different internal loads, prevailing wind speeds, prevailing wind temperatures and prevailing wind angles. The work generates certain air opening configuration to be used for natural ventilation and the results show that natural ventilation is feasible if the following conditions are met simultaneously: the occupation density is 25% or less, sitting in the prevailing wind side, the lighting load does not exceed 50% of its full capacity, the prevailing wind temperature does not exceed 30 °C and the prevailing wind velocity is in range 3-4 m/s, where the upper limit arises from the requirement to avoid high velocities in the playing area. These conditions can be met during the training time and during parts of the day and over parts of the year hours making this method conditionally feasible.

The nonclassical heat conduction equation based on the Maxwell-Cattaneo-Fox (MCF) model is used to study the Stokes’ first and second problems for the Rivlin-Ericksen fluids. The discontinuities in velocity gradients in fluid flows induced by impulsive or sudden heating of a plate and the influence of the thermal relaxation time and elastic parameter of the fluid on the velocity field are investigated. The structure of the waves in the temperature and velocity fields is presented. An anomalous behavior of the medium is characterized by infinite or negative values of the group velocity for the wave packets as the frequency attains or exceeds a critical value. The displacement thickness and the rate of heat transfer at the plate are determined.
