Numerical analysis has been performed on three-dimensional natural convection in inclined concentric annuli with the nonuniform temperature distribution of the inner cylinder. The governing equations are numerically solved by successive over-relaxation methods for various inclination angles at $R_{a}$=3*10$^{4}$, $P_{r}$=7.0 and $r_{1}$ / $r_{2}$=0.6. Temperature and Nusselt number distributions are obtained and calculated results are compared with those of published uniform temperature distributions. It is found that the mean Nusselt numbers for the nonuniform temperature distributions increase more than those for the uniform temperature distributions by about 9. 6% at .delta.= 0.deg., 7.5% at .delta. = 30.deg. and 4.6% at .delta. = 60.deg.. In the case of .delta. = 0.deg., the maximum local Nusselt numbers on the inner and outer cylinder walls show at .xi. = 0.5, 1.5 of .psio=100 .deg. and .xi. = 0.4, 1.6 of .psi. = 180 .deg.. But in the case of .delta. = 30.deg. and .delta. = 60.deg., the maximum local Nusselt numbers on the inner and other cylinder walls show at .xt. = 0.0 of .psi. = 180 .deg. and .xi. = 2.0 of .psi. = 180 .deg...

In the sintering of YIG, abnormal grain growth phenomena was observed. This abnormal grain growth is related to the sintering temperature in this experiment. In the sintering below 145$0^{\circ}C$., the sintered body showed narrow size distribution. However, in the sintering at 145$0^{\circ}C$, a few grains grew rapidly with respect to other grains, and bimodal size distribution was appeared. Liquid phase was not observed far from the abnormally grown large grains, but only near the large grains. This means that the abnormal grain growth was caused by the nonuniform distribution of liquid phase which promote the grains growth. This nonuniform distribution of liquid phase was thought to be due to the nonuniform mixing of the starting materials. This abnormal grain growth was suppressed by enhance the compositional uniformity by multiple calcination.

In this study, dimensionless correlations of frost properties (i.e. the thickness and surface temperature of frost) on heat exchanger fin with nonuniform temperature distribution are proposed from frosting experiments. We analyzed the local fin temperature distribution, frost thickness and frost surface temperature on a 2D fin; in the airflow direction and the direction perpendicular to airflow. As a result, the frost growth on the fin had a close relation with fin heat conduction. The dimensionless correlations for the average frost properties were expressed as a function of dimensionless temperature, humidity ratio, Reynolds number, and Fourier number. These correlations agreed well with experimental data with the error less than 14%.

In the sintering of YIG, abnormal grain growth phenomena were observed. This abnormal grain growth is related to the sintering temperature in this experiment. In the sintering below 1450$^{\circ}C$, the sintered body showed narrow size distribution. However, in the sintering at 1450$^{\circ}C$, a few grains grew rapidly with respect to other grains, and bimodal size distribution was appeared. From the observation of the microstructure, liquid phase was not observed far from the abnormally grown large grains, but only near the large grains. This means that the abnormal grain growth was caused by the nonuniform distribution of liquid phase which promote the grains growth. Because the growth rate of grains near the liquid phase is much higher than that of the other grains, a few grains grow rapidly. This nonuniform distribution of liquid phase was thought to be due to the nonuniform mixing of the calcined powders. This abnormal grain growth was suppressed by enhancement of the compositional uniformity by multiple calcination.

When an integral pressurized water reactor is operated under low power conditions, once-through steam generator group operation strategy is applied. However, group operation strategy will cause nonuniform coolant flow distribution at the core inlet and lower plenum. To help coolant flow mix more uniformly, a flow mixing chamber (FMC) has been designed. In this paper, computational fluid dynamics methods have been used to investigate the coolant distribution by the effect of FMC. Velocity and temperature characteristics under different low power conditions and optimized FMC configuration have been analyzed. The results illustrate that the FMC can help improve the nonuniform coolant temperature distribution at the core inlet effectively; at the same time, the FMC will induce more resistance in the downcomer and lower plenum.

This article investigates the statically analysis regarding the thermal buckling behavior of a nonuniform small-scale nanobeam made of functionally graded material based on classic beam theories along with the nonlocal Eringen elasticity. The material distribution of functionally graded structures is composed of temperature-dependent ceramic and metal phases in axial and thickness directions, called two-dimensional functionally graded (2D-FG). The partial differential (PD) formulations and end conditions are extracted by using to the conservation energy method. The porosity voids are assumed in the nonuniform functionally graded (FG) structure. The thermal loads are in the axial direction of the beam. The extracted nonlocal PD equations are also solved by employing generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM). Last but not least, the information acquired is used to produce miniature sensors, providing a unique perspective on the growth of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS).

The experimental study investigates two aspects of counterflow sensible heat regenerator operation. First, it examines the regenerator performance in periodic steady state operation with spatially nonuniform inlet temperature in one of the fluid stream. Second, the study examines the transient response of a regenerator to a step change in the inlet temperature of one of the fluid streams. The effect of transient inlet temperatures is analyzed in terms of the response of the outlet fluid temperatures to a step change in temperature of one of the inlet fluid streams. The effect of temperature nonuniformities is analyzed in terms of the change of temperature nonuniformities is analyzed in terms of the change in steady state effectiveness due to a circumferential temperature distribution in one of the inlet fluid streams. an experimental analysis has been conducted using a counterflow, parallel passage, and rotary regenerator made from polyethylene film. Efficiencies follow similar trends with increasing matrix to fluid capacity rate ratio for the balanced and symmetric regenerator with nonuniform inlet temperature.

The present study discusses the deviation from the pure dead-time model of passive scalars such as temperature and concentration in the Poiseulle flow Even in the case of no thermal diffusion, there exists a substantial amount of damping and large deviation of phase lag from that computed by the traditional dead-time model after only 10 diameter downstream. These are caused by the phase difference of temperature in the radial direction due to the nonuniform velocity distribution. In the presence of thermal diffusion, damping is more pronounced.

The phenomenon of decrease in sizing efficiency when the stock temperature is increased is well recognized as summer sizing, and this is believed to be caused by uneven distribution of sizing agents on paper surface most often incurred by coagulation of sizing agents. When unevenly sized paper is used as coating base stock, nonuniform consolidation of the coating layer may result, which, in turn, causes uneven distribution of binder on coating surface. This causes nonuniform ink absorption to produce print mottle. In this study the effects of simple or polymeric electrolytes, storage temperature and time on the coagulation of cationic dispersed rosin size were investigated using a turbidity measurement method which was verified to correlate well with the particle size of rosin emulsion or its coagulates. Handsheets sized with rosin dispersions coagulated under various conditions were prepared and their sizing degree and coated paper properties including gloss and ink density were examined. The relationship between the sizing nonuniformity of coated papers and its ink absorption property was evaluated. Turbidity of rosin emulsion increased as the storage temperature and time were increased. Addition of simple or polymeric electrolytes caused reduction in $zeta$ -potential of the rosin dispersion and accelerated the coagulation tendency substantially. Reversion of the $zeta$ -potential of rosin dispersion, however, did not occur when coagulation was induced with simple electrolytes. On the other hand, addition of an anionic polyelectrolyte reversed the $zeta$ -potential of the flocculated rosin dispersion. This indicated that electrical double layer compaction and bridging flocculation were coagulation mechanisms for simple and polymeric electrolytes, respectively. Sizing degree decreased as coagulation of rosin was increased. Paper gloss, ink gloss and ink density were increased when sizing degree of base stock was increased most probably due to prevention of base paper swelling and increased binder migration to coating surface. This suggested that uneven printing ink density occurred when uneven sizing development was induced by coagulation of rosin particles.
