Viscous dissipation effects on heat transfer in flow over an inclined plate
G. Palani, K.-Y. Kim Department of Mechanical Engineering, Inha University, Incheon, 402-751, Republic of Korea
Abstract:
The effects of viscous dissipation are considered for natural convection flow past a semi-infinite inclined plate with variable surface temperature. Velocity and temperature profiles, skin friction, and rate of heat transfer are obtained. The effects of Grashof and Prandtl numbers, inclination angle, exponent in the wall temperature variation law, and viscous dissipation parameter on the flow are discussed. It is shown that the time required to reach steady states increases with increasing Prandtl number of the fluid. In addition, an increase in the plate temperature due to viscous dissipation was found to lead to a rise in the average skin friction and a decrease in the average Nusselt number.
Keywords:
inclined plate, transient flow, Grashof number, skin friction, viscous dissipative effect.
