Abstract:A semi-analytic solution is presented for the solidi cation of laminar Couette ow within a one-dimensional annular region with a rotating inner cylinder and stationary outer cylinder. Viscous dissipation in the liquid is taken into account. The inner cylinder is maintained under adiabatic conditions while the outer cylinder is convectively cooled. Analytic expressions for the dimensionless quasi-steady temperature distribution in the solid and liquid regions, Nusselt number at the solid-liquid interface, dimen… Show more
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.
