Entrance Region Flow Heat Transfer in Concentric Annuli with Rotating Inner Wall for Herschel-Bulkley Fluids
Department of Mathematical and Computational Sciences, National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal, Mangalore, Karnataka - 575025, India
A finite difference analysis of the entrance region flow heat transfer of Herschel-Bulkley fluids in concentric annuli with rotating inner wall has been carried out. The analysis is made for simultaneously developing hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layer in concentric annuli with one wall being isothermal and other one being adiabatic. The inner cylinder is assumed to be rotating with a constant angular velocity and the outer cylinder being stationary. A finite difference analysis is used to obtain the velocity distributions, pressure drop and temperature variations along the radial direction. Computational results are obtained for various values of aspect ratio, flow index, Prandtl’s number and Herschel-Bulkley number. Comparison of the present results with the results available in literature for various particular cases has been done and found to be in agreement.
