In this paper, to identify the diffusion rate, i.e., the heterogeneity of medium, the authors consider an inverse coefficient problem utilizing finite measurements and obtain a local HSlder type conditional stability based upon two Carleman estimates for the corresponding differential equations of integer orders.展开更多

The coefficient of thermal diffusivity has been assumed to be the sum of the molecular diffusivity and the dynamic diffusivity due to mechanical dispersion. The effects of transverse magnetic field parameter (Hartmann number Ha), Reynolds number Re (different velocities), Prandtl number Pr (different types of fluids) and dispersion parameter on the wall shear stress and the heat transfer rate are discussed.展开更多
