Generalized thermoelastic infinite medium with spherical cavity subjected to moving heat source

This paper deals with a problem of thermoelastic interactions in an isotropic unbounded medium with spherical cavity due to the presence of moving heat sources in the context of the linear theory of generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time. The governing equations are expressed in the Laplace transform domain and solved in that domain. The inversion of the Laplace transform is done numerically using the Riemann-sum approximation method. The numerical estimates of the displacement, temperature, stress, and strain are obtained for a hypothetical material. The results obtained are presented graphically to show the effect of the heat source velocity and the relaxation time parameters on displacement, temperature, stress, and strain.     

Transient magneto-thermoviscoelastic plane waves in a non-homogeneous anisotropic thick strip subjected to a moving heat source

The aim of this paper is to study the transient wave propagations in a non-homogeneous anisotropic thermoviscoelastic thick strip placed in a constant primary magnetic field and subjected to a moving heat source. The governing equations for temperature and displacement fields are solved by means of a dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM). In the case of plane deformation, a numerical scheme for the implementation of the method is presented and the numerical computations are carried out for the temperature, displacement components and thermal stress components. The validity of DRBEM is examined by considering a magneto-thermo-visco-elastic thick strip occupies a rectangular region and good agreement is obtained with existent results. The results obtained are presented graphically to show the effect of inhomogeneity on the displacement components and thermal stress components. Relevant results of previous investigations are deduced as special cases from this study.

Effect of phase-lags on Rayleigh wave propagation in initially stressed magneto-thermoelastic orthotropic medium

The present article deals with Rayleigh surface wave propagation in homogeneous magneto-thermoelastic orthotropic medium. Effect of initial stress and magnetic field on Rayleigh waves is studied in the context of three-phase-lag model of generalized thermoelasticity. The normal mode analysis is used to obtain the exact expressions for the displacement components, stresses and temperature distribution. Various frequency equations are derived and compared with the existing literature. The path of surface particles is elliptical during Rayleigh wave propagation. Effect of phase-lags on Rayleigh wave velocity, attenuation coefficient and specific loss are presented graphically. It is observed from graphical presentation that the effect of magnetic field and initial stress on different wave characteristics is pronounced.

Effect of double stratification on MHD free convection in a micropolar fluid

This paper analyzes the flow and heat and mass transfer characteristics of the free convection on a vertical plate with variable wall temperature and concentration in a doubly stratified micropolar fluid. A uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the plate. The governing non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into a system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations and then solved numerically using the Keller-box method. The numerical results are compared and found to be in good agreement with previously published results as special cases of the present investigation. The non-dimensional velocity, microrotation, temperature and concentration are presented graphically for various values of magnetic parameter, coupling number, thermal and solutal stratification parameters. In addition, the Nusselt number, the Sherwood number, the skin-friction coefficient, and the wall couple stress are shown in a tabular form.     

Transient thermoelastic response in a cracked strip of functionally graded materials via generalized fractional heat conduction

This work is devoted to analyzing a thermal shock problem of an elastic strip made of functionally graded materials containing a crack parallel to the free surface based on a generalized fractional heat conduction theory. The embedded crack is assumed to be insulated. The Fourier transform and the Laplace transform are employed to solve a mixed initial-boundary value problem associated with a time-fractional partial differential equation. Temperature and thermal stresses in the Laplace transform domain are evaluated by solving a system of singular integral equations. Numerical results of the thermoelastic fields in the time domain are given by applying a numerical inversion of the Laplace transform. The temperature jump between the upper and lower crack faces and the thermal stress intensity factors at the crack tips are illustrated graphically, and phase lags of heat flux, fractional orders, and gradient index play different roles in controlling heat transfer process. A comparison of the temperature jump and thermal stress intensity factors between the non-Fourier model and the classical Fourier model is made. Numerical results show that wave-like behavior and memory effects are two significant features of the fractional Cattaneo heat conduction, which does not occur for the classical Fourier heat conduction.     

The nonsimilar laminar wall jet along a moving wall,in a free stream and in a free stream/moving wall

The flow of a laminar wall jet along either a moving plate, or in a free stream, or in combined moving plate and free stream is considered. The plate is isothermal and its temperature is different from that of the ambient fluid. The governing boundary-layer equations are converted into non-dimensional form and are solved numerically. Velocity and temperature profiles as well as the variation of wall shear stress and wall heat transfer are presented for all cases considered. For the case of a moving plate new results have been found although this problem has been investigated in the past. For the case of the free stream and the combined moving plate/free stream all the results are new and are presented for the first time in the literature. The three cases have been tackled with a unified way.     

Fractional order theory of Cattaneo-type thermoelasticity using new fractional derivatives

Transient thermoelastic interactions between materials and the moving heat sources, i.e. Laser additive manufacturing, Laser-assisted thermotherapy, high speed sliding and rolling contacts, are becoming increasingly important. In this work, a unified fractional thermoelastic theory is developed, and applied to study transient responses caused by a moving heat source. Theoretically, new insights on fractional thermoelasticity are provided by introducing new definitions of fractional derivative, i.e. Caputo-Fabrizio, Atangana–Baleanu and Tempered-Caputo type. Numerically, a semi-infinite medium subjected to a source of heat moving with constant velocity is considered within the present model under two different sets of boundary conditions: stress free and temperature given for the first, displacement fixed and thermally adiabatic for the second. Analytical solutions to all responses are firstly formulated in Laplace domain, and then transformed into time domain through numerical method. The numerical results show that Caputo-Fabrizio and Atangana–Baleanu type models predict smaller transient responses than Caputo type theory, while Tempered-Caputo model may give larger results by increasing the tempered parameter. Meanwhile, the effect of fractional order, tempered parameter of Tempered-Caputo model, and the velocity of heat source on all responses is discussed in detail. The time history of responses shows that: for long-term process, the exponential function of TC definition will make sense, and the temperature from TC model is greatly different from that of C model. This work may provide comprehensive understanding for thermoelastic interactions due to moving heat source, and open up possibly wide applications of such new fractional derivatives.     

Effects of thermal radiation and space porosity on MHD mixed convection flow in a vertical channel using homotopy analysis method

A study of MHD mixed convection flow through porous space in the presence of a temperature dependent heat source in a vertical channel with radiation has been analyzed. The Rosseland approximation is considered in the modeling of the conduction radiation heat transfer and temperatures of the walls are assumed constants. The governing equations are expressed in non-dimensional form and the series solutions of coupled system of equations are constructed for velocity and temperature using homotopy analysis method (HAM). The effects of various involved parameters on the velocity and temperature field are shown and discussed. The coefficient of skin friction, and the rate of heat transfer coefficient are obtained and illustrated graphically.     

Effects of chemical reaction and radiation on an unsteady MHD flow past an accelerated infinite vertical plate with variable temperature and mass transfer

This paper deals with the study of the effects of first order chemical reaction and radiation on an unsteady MHD flow of an incompressible viscous electrically conducting fluid past an accelerated infinite vertical plate with variable temperature and mass transfer. The resulting approximate dimensionless system of governing partial differential equations are integrated in closed form by the Laplace transform technique A uniform magnetic field is assumed to be applied transversely to the direction of the flow. Rosseland model of radiation has been chosen in the investigation, the expressions for the velocity field, temperature field and concentration field and skin-friction in the direction of the flow, coefficient of heat transfer and mass flux at the plate have been obtained in non-dimensional form and these are illustrated graphically for various physical parameters involved in the study. Investigation reveals that the fluid velocity is decelerated in the region adjacent to the plate, due to the effect of first order chemical reaction and the rate of heat transfer (from plate to the fluid) decreases due to the absorption of thermal radiation. The results obtained in this work are consistent with physical situation of the problem.

Analysis of melting behavior of PCMs in a cavity subject to a non-uniform magnetic field using a moving grid technique

Melting flow and heat transfer of electrically conductive phase change materials subjecting to a non-uniform magnetic field are addressed in a square enclosure. The top and bottom walls of the cavity are adiabatic, and the sidewalls are isothermal at different temperatures. The temperature of the hot wall is higher than the fusion temperature of PCM (T_f), and the cold wall is at the fusion temperature or lower. At the initial time, the cavity is filled with a solid saturated PCM. In the vicinity to the hot wall, there is an external line-source magnet, inducing a magnetic field. The location of the magnetic source (Y₀) can be changed along the hot wall. The cavity domain is divided into two parts of the liquid domain and the solid domain. The moving grid method is utilized to track the phase change interface at the exact fusion temperature of T_f. The governing equations for continuity, flow and heat transfer associated with the Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) moving mesh technique are solved using the finite element method. The results are investigated for the melting behavior of PCM by the study of Hartmann number (0 ≤ Ha ≤ 50) and the location of the magnetic source (0 ≤ Y₀ ≤ 1). Outcomes show that the effect of the magnetic field on the melting behavior of PCM is negligible at the initial stages of the melting (Fo < 1.15). However, after the initial stages of the melting, the effect of the presence of a magnetic field becomes significant. Moreover, the location of the magnetic source induces a feeble effect on the melting front at the initial melting stages, but its effect on the shape of the melting front increases by the increase of the non-dimensional time. The location of the magnetic source also significantly affects the streamlines patterns. Changing the position of the magnetic source from the bottom of the cavity (Y₀ = 0.2) to the almost middle of the cavity (Y₀ = 0.6) would decrease the required non-dimensional time of full melting from Fo = 10.4 to Fo = 9.0.     

Magneto-Compound Reaction of Convective Flow via a Porous Inclined Plate with Heat Energy Absorption

The current study is concerned with the unsteady heat and mass transfer of MHD free convection flow via a porous inclined plate that accelerates exponentially with temperature and concentration. Heat emission, source/sink, radiation absorption, and reaction are taken into account in the energy and species equations. The innovative part of the work is the analysis of the flow phenomenon with a heat source or sink and radiation absorption along the chemical reaction. The governing PDEs are reduced into ODEs via the non-dimensional variables and afterward solved analytically utilizing the perturbation strategy. Graphical representations of liquid temperature, speed, and concentration as well as the Sherwood \& Nusselt quantities and the skin friction factor are displayed in tabular form for different combinations of appropriate stream quantities. The analysis of a resistance quantum grows with the size of the magnetic, whereas the rates of mass and heat transfer decline with increasing radiation, reaction, and Schmidt number. Thermal-velocity and concentration-velocity profiles interact reciprocally with the accelerating radiation, heat source, and compound reaction. The growth of speed and thermal profiles is clearly visible due to the absorption and Prandtl values. The present results are in strongly consistent with the earlier published results. There are numerous applications for this research in many sectors and material processing for understanding drag in seepage flows on heated/cooled and inclined surfaces.

Heat transfer in MHD viscoelastic boundary layer flow over a stretching sheet with thermal radiation and non-uniform heat source/sink

An analysis has been carried out to study the flow and heat transfer characteristics for MHD viscoelastic boundary layer flow over an impermeable stretching sheet with space and temperature dependent internal heat generation/absorption (non-uniform heat source/sink), viscous dissipation, thermal radiation and magnetic field due to frictional heating. The flow is generated due to linear stretching of the sheet and influenced by uniform magnetic field, which is applied vertically in the flow region. The governing partial differential equations for the flow and heat transfer are transformed into ordinary differential equations by a suitable similarity transformation. The governing equations with the appropriate conditions are solved exactly. The effects of viscoelastic parameter and magnetic parameter on skin friction and the effects of viscous dissipation, non-uniform heat source/sink and the thermal radiation on heat transfer characteristics for two general cases namely, the prescribed surface temperature (PST) case and the prescribed wall heat flux (PHF) case are presented graphically and discussed. The numerical results for the wall temperature gradient (the Nusselt number) are presented in tables and are discussed.
