Radiation effect on temperature distribution in three-dimensional Couette flow with suction or injection

A theoretical analysis of three-dimensional Couette flow with radiation effect on temperature distribution has been analysed, when the injection of the fluid at the lower stationary plate is a transverse sinusoidal one and its corresponding removal by constant suction through the upper porous plate is in uniform motion. Due to this type of injection velocity, the flow becomes three-dimensional. The effect of Prandtl number, radiation parameter and injection parameter on rate of heat transfer has been examined by the help of graphs. The Prandtl number has a much greater effect on the temperature distribution than the injection or radiation parameter.     

Model of explosive pulsed vaporization of dielectric liquids by intense laser irradiation of their surfaces

The mechanism of explosive vaporization interaction of laser radiation with matter is studied theoretically. It is shown that, in dielectric liquids with a free surface, periodic explosive boiling is possible if the laser radiation intensity exceeds the rate of heat transfer from the region of laser radiation absorption. Analytical expressions are obtained to estimate the pulsating boiling period and the thickness of the surface liquid layer dispersed by fluctuation vapor bubbles during each boiling. The degree of absorption of laser radiation by the aerosol formed above the liquid surface is estimated. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 49, No. 6, pp. 17–24, November–December, 2008.     

Étude numérique du couplage de la convection naturelle avec le rayonnement de surfaces en cavité carrée remplie d'airNumerical study of natural convection-surface radiation coupling in air-filled square cavities

A numerical tool is developed for coupling natural convection in cavities with surface radiation and computations are performed for an air-filled square cavity whose four walls have the same emissivity. Compared to the adiabatic case without radiation, the top wall is cooled, the bottom wall is heated, air flow along the horizontal walls are reinforced and thermal stratification in cavity core is reduced. Detailed analysis shows that net radiative heat flux is linear with ΔT if $\mathrm{\Delta }T?T_0$, which is the case at low Rayleigh number, and that radiative Nusselt number is a linear function of the cavity height. Surface radiation induces an early transition to time-dependent flows: for $?=0.2$ and a cavity height of 0.335 m the critical Rayleigh number is equal to $9.3\times {10}^6$ and the corresponding Hopf bifurcation is supercritical. Furthermore, multiple periodic solutions are observed between $\mathit{Ra}=1.2\times {10}^7$ and $1.3\times {10}^7$. To cite this article: H. Wang et al., C. R. Mecanique 334 (2006).     

Numerical modeling of the single-phase Stefan problem in a layer with transparent and semitransparent boundaries

Numerical modeling of the single-phase Stefan problem in a semitransparent layer with transparent, nonabsorbing, and partially radiation-absorbing boundaries is performed. It is shown that at low temperatures of the medium, convection is a determining factor on the boundary of the irradiated sample, and at high temperatures, radiation is predominant. The absence of absorption on the boundaries of the layer leads to acceleration of the heating of the plate and considerable deceleration of melting processes. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 47, No. 3, pp. 84–91, May–June, 2006.     

Birth of periodic and artificial halo orbits in the restricted three-body problem

We investigate the bifurcation of artificial halo orbits from the Lyapunov planar family of periodic orbits around the collinear libration points of the circular, spatial, restricted three-body problem. Beside the gravitational forces, our model includes also the effect of the Solar Radiation Pressure (SRP) and this motivates the use of the term ‘artificial’ halo orbits. Indeed, as a typical problem, one may think of a solar sail, which is characterized by a performance parameter measuring the strength of the effect of the SRP on the spacecraft.To settle the model, we determine the position of the collinear points as a function of the mass and performance parameters and the energy values at which Hill׳s surfaces allow for transit orbits between the primaries. To analyze the dynamics we use a consolidated procedure which consists in the computation of a resonant normal form, allowing the reduction to the center manifold and providing an integrable approximation of the Hamiltonian dynamical system. Finally, we compute the bifurcation thresholds of the 1:1 resonant periodic orbit families (which have the standard ‘halo’ orbits as their first member) as a function of the performance and mass parameters.The results show that SRP is indeed a relevant ingredient for new dynamical features and must definitely be considered when planning a mission of a solar sail with trajectories in the neighborhoods of collinear points.

Effect of Lorentz forces on forced-convection nanofluid flow over a stretched surface

Magnetic nanofluid hydrothermal analysis over a plate is studied that includes consideration of thermal radiation. The Runge–Kutta (RK4) method is utilized to get solution of ODEs which are obtained from similarity solution. In considering the impacts of Brownian motion, we applied Koo–Kleinstreuer–Li correlation to simulate the properties of CuO–water. The influence is discussed of important parameters such as the temperature index, magnetic, radiation, and velocity ratio parameters and volume fraction of nanoparticle on hydrothermal behavior. Results illustrate that the coefficient of skin friction enhances with enhancing magnetic parameter while reduces with enhancing velocity ratio parameter. Also the Nusselt number was found to directly depend on the velocity ratio and temperature index parameters but has an inverse dependence on the magnetic and radiation parameters.

Acoustomechanical constitutive theory for soft materials

Acoustic wave propagation from surrounding medium into a soft material can generate acoustic radiation stress due to acoustic momentum transfer inside the medium and material, as well as at the interface between the two. To analyze acoustic-induced deformation of soft materials, we establish an acoustomechanical constitutive theory by com-bining the acoustic radiation stress theory and the nonlinear elasticity theory for soft materials. The acoustic radiation stress tensor is formulated by time averaging the momen-tum equation of particle motion, which is then introduced into the nonlinear elasticity constitutive relation to construct the acoustomechanical constitutive theory for soft materials. Considering a specified case of soft material sheet subjected to two counter-propagating acoustic waves, we demonstrate the nonlinear large deformation of the soft material and ana-lyze the interaction between acoustic waves and material deformation under the conditions of total reflection, acoustic transparency, and acoustic mismatch.     

THEORY OF GRAVITATIONAL RADIATION OF THE(Ω,Aμr)-FIELD

Further exploration of the Ω-field theory as first proposed by Yu (1989) is here presented to cover the equation of motion of a test particle which induces gravitational radiation. The same theory is shown to contain an exact gravitational radiation equation derived as a logical consequence of field equations without extra postulates. In this general dynamic context the theory is renamed "The (Ω,A_μr) field Theory".
