We present a GPU-accelerated method for large scale, coupled incompressible fluid flow and heat transfer problems. A high-order, nodal discontinuous Galerkin method is utilized to discretize governing equations on unstructured triangular meshes. A semi-implicit scheme with explicit treatment of the advective terms and implicit treatment of the split Stokes operators are used for time discretization. The pressure system is solved with a conjugate gradient method together with a fully GPU-accelerated multigrid preconditioner. The code is built on scalable libParanumal solver which is a library of high-performance kernels for high-order discretizations. Performance portability is achieved by using the open concurrent compute abstraction, OCCA. A set of numerical experiments including free and mixed convection problems indicate that our approach experimentally reaches design order of accuracy.

A Numerical forced convection heat transfer analysis of nanofluids considering performance criteria Kirez, Oğuz; Güvenç Yazıcıoğlu, Almıla; Kakaç, Sadık; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2012) A nanofluid is a new heat transfer fluid produced by mixing a base fluid and solid nano sized particles. This fluid has great potential in heat transfer applications, because of its increased thermal conductivity and even increased Nusselt number due to higher thermal conductivity, Brownian motion of nanoparticles, and other various effects on heat transfer phenomenon. In this work, the first aim is to predict convective heat transfer of nanofluids. A numerical code is created and run to obtain results in a...
Computational Modeling of the Effects of Viscous Dissipation on Polymer Melt Flow Behavior During Injection Molding Process in Plane Channels Tutar, M.; Karakuş, Ali (2013-02-01) The present finite volume method based fluid flow solutions investigate the boundary-layer flow and heat transfer characteristics of polymer melt flow in a rectangular plane channel in the presence of the effect of viscous dissipation and heat transfer by considering the viscosity and density variations in the flow. For different inflow velocity boundary conditions and the injection polymer melt temperatures, the viscous dissipation effects on the velocity and temperature distributions are studied extensive...
A CSCM Approximation of Steady MHD Flow and Heat Transfer Between Parallel Plates with Hydrodynamic Slip and Convective Boundary Conditions Tezer, Münevver; Türk, Önder (2021-01-01) © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.The steady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow and heat transfer between parallel plates is considered in which the electrically conducting fluid has temperature dependent properties such as viscosity, thermal and electrical conductivity. The fluid is driven by a constant pressure gradient, and a uniform external transverse magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plates. The effects of viscous and Joule dissipations are considered in the energy equation, and the flui...
A comparative experimental and density functional study of glucose adsorption and electrooxidation on the Au-graphene and Pt-graphene electrodes Caglar, Aykut; Duzenli, Derya; Önal, Işık; Tersevin, Ilker; Sahin, Ozlem; Demir Kıvrak, Hilal (2020-01-01) At present, the graphene is covered on Cu foil with the 5 sccm hexane (C6H14) flow rate, 50 sccm hydrogen (H-2) flow rate, and 20 min deposition time parameters by the CVD method. The graphene on the Cu foil is then covered onto few-layer ITO electrode. Furthermore, the Pt and Au metals are electrodeposited on graphene/ITO electrode with electrochemical method. These electrodes are characterized by Raman spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive X-Ray analysis (SEM-EDX). The graphene s...
A numerical study of single-phase convective heat transfer in microtubes for slip flow Sun, Wei; Kakac, Sadik; Yazicioglu, Almila G. (2007-11-01) The steady-state convective heat transfer for laminar, two-dimensional, incompressible rarefied gas flow in the thermal entrance region of a tube under constant wall temperature, constant wall heat flux, and linear variation of wall temperature boundary conditions are investigated by the finite-volume finite difference scheme with slip flow and temperature jump conditions. Viscous heating is also included, and the solutions are compared with theoretical results where viscous heating has been neglected. For ...
