We determine unsteady flow perturbations that are optimal for enhancing the rate of heat transfer between hot and cold walls (i.e. the Nusselt number Nu), under the constraint of fixed flow power (Pe$^2$, where Pe is the P\'{e}clet number).…
We compute incompressible two-dimensional fluid flows that maximize the rate of heat transfer from the walls of a straight channel given a specified flow input power $Pe^{2}$, where $Pe$ is the P\'{e}clet number. We use the…
Gradient ascent methods are developed to compute incompressible flows that maximize heat transport between two isothermal no-slip parallel walls. Parameterizing the magnitude of velocity fields by a P\'eclet number $\text{Pe}$ proportional…
We find steady channel flows that are locally optimal for transferring heat from fixed-temperature walls, under the constraint of a fixed rate of viscous dissipation (enstrophy = $Pe^2$), also the power needed to pump the fluid through the…
We study numerically the dependence of heat transport on the maximum velocity and shear rate of physical circulating flows, which are prescribed to have the key characteristics of the large-scale mean flow observed in turbulent convection.…
In this article, we present the governing equations for the temperature field upstream and downstream of the periodically developed flow region in channels with arrays of periodic solid structures. From the ansatz that the temperature field…
We compute steady planar incompressible flows and wall shapes that maximize the rate of heat transfer (Nu) between and hot and cold walls, for a given rate of viscous dissipation by the flow (Pe$^2$). In the case of no flow, we show…
Due to ample applications from medical services to industrial activities, the study of flow and heat transfer through a curved duct has attracted considerable attention to the researchers. In this paper, a comprehensive numerical study is…
We investigate nonlinear energy transfer for channel flows at friction Reynolds numbers of $Re_{\tau}=180$ and $590$. The key feature of the analysis is that we introduce a new variable, which quantifies the energy transferred from a source…
We study turbulent natural convection in enclosures with conjugate heat transfer. The simplest way to increase the heat transfer in this flow is through rough surfaces. In numerical simulations often the constant temperature is assigned at…
The divergence-free time-independent velocity vector field has been determined so as to maximise heat transfer between two parallel plates of a constant temperature difference under the constraint of fixed total enstrophy. The present…
In the presence of elastic forces, even dilute polymer suspensions can exhibit erratic flow fluctuations even when the viscous forces dominate over the inertial forces, which occur at vanishing-low Reynolds numbers (Re). This phenomenon is…
The use of extended surfaces find wide range of applications in heat transfer devices for achieving heat transfer augmentation like gas turbine blade cooling and nuclear reactor core since the last few decades. So, understanding the…
To understand how internal flow structures manifest themselves in the global heat transfer, we study the correlation between different flow modes and the instantaneous Nusselt number ($Nu$) in a two-dimensional square Rayleigh-B\'enard…
Steady flows that optimize heat transport are obtained for two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection with no-slip horizontal walls for a variety of Prandtl numbers $Pr$ and Rayleigh number up to $Ra\sim 10^9$. Power law scalings of…
We study steady flows that are optimal for heat transfer in a two-dimensional periodic domain. The flows maximize heat transfer under the constraints of incompressibility and a given energy budget (i.e. mean viscous power dissipation).…
Heat and momentum transfer in wall-bounded turbulent flow, coupled with the effects of wall-roughness, is one of the outstanding questions in turbulence research. In the standard Rayleigh-B\'enard problem for natural thermal convection, it…
In this work, the Nusselt number is examined for periodically developed heat transfer in micro- and mini-channels with arrays of offset strip fins, subject to a constant heat flux. The Nusselt number is defined on the basis of a heat…
We studied flow organization and heat transfer properties in mixed turbulent convection within Poiseuille-Rayleigh-B\'enard channels subjected to temporally modulated sinusoidal wall temperatures. Three-dimensional direct numerical…
In this research, a novel method to investigation the transient heat transfer coefficient in a channel is suggested experimentally, in which the water flow, itself, is considered both just liquid phase and liquid-vapor phase. The…
