The present review covers the heat transfer literature published in 2004 in English
language, including some translations of foreign language papers. Though extensive, some …

The present numerical work, the first of its kind, aims at establishing the threshold
parameters for dynamic similitude (based on the Rayleigh number (Ra)), for free convection …

Thermal efficiency improvement of a water heater was investigated numerically and
experimentally in response to presence of a baffle, particularly designed for modifying the …

This paper presents a computational model for the ammonothermal gallium nitride (GaN)
crystal growth process, including fluid flow, heat transfer, dissolution and crystallization …

This paper presents three-dimensional (3D) large eddy simulation (LES) calculations of
natural convection in laterally-heated cylindrical enclosures using ANSYS FLUENT. The …

Hydrothermal solution growth is an important technique to grow high-quality single crystals.
An autoclave, a closed cylindrical low-carbon steel vessel, is used to grow the large size …

This paper presents an investigation of flow and heat transfer in a large diameter (6.25 in)
cylindrical enclosure heated laterally and containing a porous block that simulates the …

Ammonothermal crystal growth technique is one of the most effective methods used for
growing Gallium Nitride (GaN) crystals. GaN crystals have wide applications in light emitting …

Achieving better thermal environment for the growth of high quality single crystals has been
the focus of numerous investigations. However, a literature review reveals that the topics of …

In order to solve the problem of uneven air inlet flow in the guide channel of autoclave, three
optimization schemes for the guide plate were proposed. The flow field in the guide …
