The characteristics of flow and heat transfer in fluid are obtained by using of finite control volume method in CFD.
Other researchers studied various aspects of flow and heat transfer in a fluid of infinite extent; see, for instance, Chen [7] and Abo-Eldahab and Abd El-Aziz [8].
Cussler, E. L. Diffusion: Mass Transfer in Fluid Systems (Cambridge Univ. Press, Cambridge, 2009).
The problem of Darcy Forchheimer mixed convection heat and mass transfer in fluid-saturated porous media in the presence of thermophoresis was presented by Rami et al. [26].
The study of convective heat transfer in fluid-saturated porous media has many important applications in technology geothermal energy recovery, such as oil recovery, food processing, fiber and granular insulation, porous burner and heater, combustion of low-calorific fuels to diesel engines, and design of packed bed reactors.
The entropy generation due to fluid friction and heat transfer in the fluid system is computed and ratio of rate of heat transfer to irreversibility generated is obtained.
There occurs large amount of heat transfer in the fluid phase initially, and with large time the amount of heat transfer approaches a near constant value.
This study was subsequently extended by many authors to explore various aspects of heat transfer in a fluid surrounding a stretching sheet (Tsou et al. [2], Erickson et al. [3], Mucoglu and Chen [4], Grubka and Bobba [5], Karwe and Jaluria [6], Chen [7], Abo-Eldahab and El-Aziz [8], Salem and El-Aziz [9], Ali [10], Ishak et al. [11]).
In the heat transfer process, the fluid of shell-side flows into heat exchanger from the bottom inlet and the planar elastic tube bundle is heated by the fluid of tube-side.
In order to rationalize our experimental results, we develop a rigorous nonequilibrium (NEQ) stage model, incorporating the Maxwell Stefan diffusion equations to describe transfer in either fluid phase and a fundamental description of tray hydrodynamics.
