Pressure-gradient-driven flows in grooved horizontal channels were investigated. The
results show that a significant reduction in pressure losses can be achieved by exposing …

An analysis of natural convection in a horizontal, geometrically non-uniform slot exposed to
spatially non-uniform heating has been carried out. The upper plate is smooth and …

In this article, a set of parametric studies is performed to establish the optimum configuration
of magnetic field strength and its orientation for enhancement in the convection heat transfer …

A numerical investigation and reduced-order modelling of natural convection in a cavity with
differentially heated sidewalls is discussed. The effect of conjugate boundary conditions on …

An analysis of heat transfer in non-uniformly heated corrugated slots has been carried out. A
sinusoidal corrugation is placed at the lower plate that is exposed to heating consisting of …

The use of streamwise grooves for intensification of streaks created by heating in shear
layers has been investigated. Three ranges of groove wave numbers were of interest: wave …

An algorithm suitable for analysis of convection problems in corrugated conduits has been
developed. The algorithm uses the immersed boundary conditions (IBC) concept to capture …

Streaks and rolls are of interest in mixing intensification. It is shown that they can be created
in a controlled manner in fully developed shear layers using spatially distributed heating …

When the heating intensity is below the critical threshold required for the onset of Rayleigh-
Bénard (RB) convection, heat transport across a horizontal fluid layer uniformly heated from …

Classical Rayleigh–Bénard convection occurs when a horizontal fluid layer is heated
sufficiently strongly from below. In more recent times, there has been increased interest in …
