    Entrance Region Flow Heat Transfer in Concentric Annuli with Rotating Inner Wall for Herschel-Bulkley Fluids
    (EDP Sciences edps@edpsciences.com, 2017) Nadiminti, S.R.; Kandasamy, A.
    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. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2017.

    Entrance Region Flow in Concentric Annuli with Rotating Inner Wall for Herschel–Bulkley Fluids
    (Springer, 2015) Kandasamy, A.; Nadiminti, S.R.
    A finite difference analysis of the entrance region flow of Herschel–Bulkley fluids in concentric annuli with rotating inner wall has been carried out. The analysis is made for simultaneously developing hydrodynamic boundary layer in concentric annuli with the inner cylinder 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 and pressure variations along the radial direction. With the Prandtl boundary layer assumptions, the continuity and momentum equations are solved iteratively using a finite difference method. Computational results are obtained for various non-Newtonian flow parameters and geometrical considerations. A significant asymmetry is found in the entrance region which is gradually reduced as the flow develops. For smaller values of aspect ratio and higher values of Herschel–Bulkley number the flow is found to stabilize more gradually. Comparison of the present results with the results available in literature for various particular cases has been done and found to be in agreement. © 2015, Springer India Pvt. Ltd.

    Entrance region flow heat transfer in concentric annuli with rotating inner wall for bingham fluid
    (Budapest University of Technology and Economics office@pp.bme.hu Budafoki ut 4 Budapest H-1111, 2016) Nadiminti, S.R.; Kandasamy, A.
    A finite difference analysis of the entrance region flow heat transfer of Bingham fluid 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 N, Bingham number B and Prandtl's 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.

    Heat and mass transfer effects of casson fluid in the entrance of concentric annuli with moviment of walls
    (Research Publication, 2020) Nadiminti, S.R.; Kandasamy, A.
    Heat and mass transfer effects of Casson fluid in the entrance of concentric annuli with moviment of inner wall was analyzed here. The problem analysis concerns the simultaneous development of thermal boundary layers and hydrodynamic in concentric walls, one ring is isothermal and the other wall being adiabatic. With the assumption that the inner ring rotates with a fixed angular velocity, also the outer ring is at rest. The finite difference technique is applied to find the velocity Profiles, variation of pressure in the radial coordinate direction and temperature changes in the same direction. Calculation results are obtained for different annular gap values, Casson number and Prandtl’s number. The comparison of the results for different special cases was made and observed. © 2020, Research Publication. All rights reserved.
