Coupled Heat and Mass Transfer in a Weld Pool
A mathematical model is proposed for coupled laminar high Reynolds (Re) number shear-driven flow and high Péclet (Pe) number heat flow in a semi-circular tungsten inert gas (TIG) weld pool. The fluid flow within ...

On the uniform vorticity in a high Reynolds number flow
A method is proposed for determining the value of the uniform vorticity (ω0) in the inviscid region of a high Reynolds number (Re) flow with closed streamlines. An asymptotic treatment of the area integral of the...

Concerning closed-streamline flows with discontinuous boundary conditions
High-Reynolds-number (Re) flow containing closed streamlines (Prandtl-Batchelor flows), within a region enclosed by a smooth boundary at which the boundary conditions are discontinuous, is considered. In spite...

Oxidation-induced stresses in the isolation oxidation of silicon
The two-dimensional isolation oxidation of silicon is studied in the reaction-controlled limit, which corresponds to the case of initially thin oxides. This limit is both of physical relevance and one of the f...

Analysis of a Model for Twin-Wire Forming
A model for the dewatering of pulp suspension in the twin-blade forming papermaking process is formulated and analysed. The slenderness of the geometry permits reduction to a one-dimensional problem, which can...

A note on electrolysis with forced convection at large peclet number in a channel and an excess of supporting electrolyte
Electrolysis of an aqueous solution of a metal salt with an excess of supporting electrolyte flowing in a two-dimensional channel is considered. The reaction kinetics is modeled by a Butler-Volmer law. The met...

Air gaps in vertical continuous casting in round moulds
A recent asymptotic thermomechanical model for the formation and evolution of air gaps in vertical continuous casting is extended from an idealized geometry to a cylindrical one that is of actual industrial re...

Evaporative cooling and the Mpemba effect
The Mpemba effect is popularly summarized by the statement that “hot water can freeze faster than cold”, and has been observed experimentally since the time of Aristotle; however, there exist almost no theoret...
