• Computational Modelling Of Heat Transfer In Reheat Furnaces 

      Harish, J (Indian Institute of Science, 2006-08-24)
      Furnaces that heat metal parts (blooms) prior to hot-working processes such as rolling or forging are called pre-forming reheat furnaces. In these furnaces, the fundamental idea is to heat the blooms to a prescribed ...
    • The Effect Of Viscosity On The Erosion Of Gradient- Zone In A Laboratory Solar Pond 

      Pradhan, Sudeep S (Indian Institute of Science, 2006-08-24)
      Double diffusive phenomena occur in many natural systems and in a variety of engineering applications, such as solar ponds. In a solar pond, the erosion of gradient zone due to convection and diffusion is the main cause ...
    • Transport Phenomena In Laser Surface Alloying: A Numerical Investigation 

      Mohan Raj, P (Indian Institute of Science, 2006-08-24)
      A comprehensive, transient three-dimensional model of a single-pass laser surface alloying process has been developed and used to examine the heat, momentum and species transport phenomena. A numerical study is performed ...
    • Turbulent Mixed Convection 

      Ramesh Chandra, D S (Indian Institute of Science, 2006-08-28)
      Turbulent mixed convection is a complicated flow where the buoyancy and shear forces compete with each other in affecting the flow dynamics. This thesis deals with the near wall dynamics in a turbulent mixed convection ...
