In this paper a modern gain-scheduling methodology is proposed which exploits recently developed velocity-based techniques to resolve many of the deficiencies of classical gain-scheduling approaches (restriction to near equilibrium operation, to slow rate of variation).
Simultaneously developing velocity and temperature fields in the slip-flow regime are investigated numerically in trapezoidal microchannels with constant wall temperatures.
We review and compare the literature correlations for estimating the heat and mass transfer coefficients as well as pressure drop in catalytic monoliths with simultaneously developing velocity, concentration and temperature profiles.
The effects of Reynolds number (0.1⩽Re⩽10), channel aspect ratio (0⩽α∗⩽1), and Knudsen number (Kn⩽0.1) on the simultaneously developing velocity and temperature fields, and on the key flow parameters like the entrance length, the friction coefficient, and Nusselt number are examined in detail.
A correlation of bubble rise velocity developed from an earlier study was modified to include the bubble length as the primary dimension defining the bubble.
In such cases, the velocity may be estimated using relationship developed between velocity and excess rainfall in the following manner.
