Description:“Convective Flow and Heat Transfer from Wavy Surfaces: Viscous Fluids, Porous Media, and Nanofluids” book addresses the wavy irregular surfaces in heat transfer devices. Wavy geometries are used in many engineering systems as a means of enhancing the transport performance. Therefore, knowledge about convective flow and heat transfer from wavy surfaces becomes important in this context. Solar collectors, condensers in refrigerators, cavity wall insulating systems, grain storage containers, industrial heat radiators, for example, are a few of many applications where wavy surfaces are encountered to transfer small or large scale heat. The focus on the area of convective flow and heat transfer from wavy surfaces in complex enclosures like square, trapezoidal and rectangular has been intensifying over the years due to the increasing interest of researchers from applied mathematics, mechanical and chemical engineering as well as from biomechanics and engineering mechanics. The present monograph has been written with the idea of fulfilling a definite need to have a comprehensive treatise on the subject of convective flow and heat transfer from wavy surfaces and in cavities having wavy walls.The book is designed as a comprehensive review of the field that combines the basic theory with major up-to-date findings, touches upon ongoing research, and offers some suggestions for future developments. It can serve also as a useful starting point information base, to those who have the desire to move into this exciting field. Though the subject matter requires rather complex mathematics, a concerted effort has been made to provide simple explanations so that new entrants to this field can absorb the fundamental concepts rather easily. At the same time, a deliberate effort has been made to section the topics in such a way that the missing areas of research are automatically drawn out.It is sincerely hoped that the book will serve as a useful reference guide to all those researchers who intend to enter this pragmatic area of convective flow and heat transfer from wavy surfaces, and also to those who want to be creative and desire to contribute more to it. In our opinion, this book has a definite utility value to the experts in fluid mechanics, heat transfer theory, applied mathematicians, as well as for mechanical and chemical engineers interested in the investigation of convective flow and heat transfer processes from wavy surfaces and their applications. The book can be used also by graduate / PhD students and industry professionals.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
