Heat is transferred through building envelopes by conduction, radiation, and convection. Of
these, convective heat transfer is often the weakest 'link'in the overall heat transfer model …

It would not have been possible to produce this book without the wealth of published
knowledge in this subject. The author is particularly grateful to the following persons and …

In this article, Jive k-ε, two-equation models are studied: the standard k-ε model, a low-
Reynolds-number k-ε model, a two-layer k-ε model, a two-scale k-ε model, and a …

Numerical simulations have been undertaken for the benchmark problem of natural
convection flow in a square cavity. The control volume method is used to solve the …

The laminar and turbulent natural-convection flow in a two-dimensional square cavity
heated from the vertical side is numerically calculated up to a Rayleigh number of 10 14 for …

A fully coupled fluid flow, heat, and solute transport model was developed to analyze
turbulent flow, solidification, and evolution of macrosegregation in a continuous billet caster …

Convective heat transfer from internal room surfaces has major effect on the thermal comfort,
air movement and heating and cooling loads for the room. Recent studies have shown that …

Heat transfer to fluids flowing in vertical tubes under conditions of combined forced and free
('mixed') turbulent convection can exhibit marked departures from the case of purely forced …

A computational study of turbulent natural convection in a side-heated near-cubic enclosure
at a high Rayleigh number (Ra= 4.9× 1010) is performed, aimed at gaining a better insight …

Current turbulence models for simulating natural convection require too much computation
time or do not give sufficiently accurate results. A one-equation near-wall model is …
