Section 9.4: Heat Conduction with a Viscous Heat Source
pp. 276-279
> restart; The velocity is assumed to vary linearly between the cylinders > Vz :=x-> (x/b)*V; equation 9.4.2 > Sv := mu*(diff(Vz(x),x))^2; equation 9.4.1: the rate of viscous dissipation per volume > A:= W*L; define area of conduction > Q:=x->-k*A*D(T)(x); Heat flow at any x > eq:=limit((Q(x)-Q(x+dx))/dx,dx=0)+A*Sv=0; energy balance: In - out + rate of production =0. > s:= dsolve({eq,T(0)=T0, T(b)=Tb},T(x)); solve the equation with BCs #1 and #2: equation 9.4-9 and 9.4-10 > assign(s); T:=unapply(T(x),x); > Theta:=xi->simplify((T(xi*b)-T0)/(Tb-T0)); The LHS of eq. 9.4-11 and xi=x/b > Theta(xi); > mu:=Br*k*(Tb-T0)/V^2; Defining the Brinkman No. and replacing the viscosity with it. > Thet:=simplify(Theta(x/b)); Thetbook:=((x/b)+(1/2)*Br*(x/b)*(1-(x/b))); difference:=simplify(Thet-Thetbook); Here is what we found for the left hand side of eq. 9.4-11 compared to the book's answer.
