Flow phenomena, local heat and mass transfer and pressure drop of corrugated passages in process equipment are examined. Based on a method for measuring local heat and mass transfer, developed in previous investigations, a procedure has been formulated for the determination of local heat and mass tr

β¦ Synopsis
Combined forced and free convective flows having locally complicated geometries or boundary conditions were numerically studied with a finite difference method of coarse and fine meshes. The coarse-and-fine mesh method developed can be used for numerical calculations of both unsteady and steady processes of heat and mass transfer in convective and diffusion flows which are strongly influenced by locally fine flows. The method was applied to a numerical calculation of the steady flow field of a CVD (chemical vapour deposition) reactor which has locatly complicated flows caused by small inlet nozzles. The results of the calculation showed a considerable contribution of locally fine flows to the overall flow field, which is well predicted with the present method.

This paper proposes a computational procedure based on the Trefftz method for the solution of non-linear Poisson problems. The problem is solved by finding an approximate particular solution to the Poisson equation and using boundary collocation to solve the resulting Laplace equation. This method r
