Heat transfer in falling laminar-wavy liquid films

Thermophysics and Aeromechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

Heat transfer in the laminar-wavy film of liquid falling over the heated plate is studied numerically. To describe the wavy film flow the integral model is applied. Calculation results demonstrate the effect of physical properties of liquid and wavy flow parameters on heat transfer intensification by stationary running waves.
