Laminar mixed convection from a horizontal rotating disc
The effect of buoyancy on the flow and heat transfer above a heated, horizontal rotating disk is investigated. It is assumed that the flow is steady, laminar, incompressible, and nondissipative. The transport properties of the fluid are considered constant. The Boussinesq approximation is applied to...

| Summary: | The effect of buoyancy on the flow and heat transfer above a heated, horizontal rotating disk is investigated. It is assumed that the flow is steady, laminar, incompressible, and nondissipative. The transport properties of the fluid are considered constant. The Boussinesq approximation is applied to the governing equations, which are solved by a numerical method. It is seen that buoyancy alters only the hydrostatic pressure distribution over an isothermal disk. |
