From a set of non-linear differential equations, the influence ofsystem parameters on the performance of the CPL is discussed, including the working temperature(the Set point), loop resistance, vapor volume etc. From the analysis, some measures were taken tohoprove the performance of the loop.

Different heating rates have been designed for detailed experiment,and relatively high heating rate is especially demanded for space experiment due to the limited time of experiment. In the present paper, the influence of heating rate on (△T)c was studied experimentally for cases of upper or lower rod heating for different geometry of liquid bridge. The results show that there is large variation of (△T)c for different heating rate, changing from around 0.1℃/s to 1.6℃/s.This result is helpful for the design of Marangoni convection experiment and the explanation of the dispersion of experimental results.展开更多

The unsteadiness in the flow and temperature fields is caused by the time-dependence of the stretching velocity and the surface temperature. The fluid is considered to be non-Newtonian, whose flow is governed by the equation of a third-order fluid. The problem is first reduced to solving a system of coupled nonlinear differential equations involving several parameters. Considering blood as an electrically conducting fluid and using the present analysis, an attempt is made to compute some parameters of the blood flow by developing a suitable numerical method and by devising an appropri- ate finite difference scheme. The computational results are presented in graphical form, and thereby some theoretical predictions are made with respect to the hemodynamical flow of the blood in a hyperthermal state under the action of a magnetic field. Com- putational results for the variation in velocity, temperature, concentration, skin-friction coefi^icient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in graphical/tabular form. Since the study takes care of thermal radiation in blood flow, the results reported here are likely to have an important bearing on the therapeutic procedure of hyperthermia, particularly in understanding blood flow and heat transfer in capillaries.展开更多
