Transient heat convection in a circular microchannel for hydrodynamically fully developed and thermally developing flow conditions is analytically solved by the integral transform and the Laplace transform techniques. A prescribed wall temperature boundary condition is assumed. The effects of velocity slip, temperature jump, and viscous heating are investigated. The results confirm that the viscous heating effects increase the Nusselt number for the specified conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
