Electrolyte Flow and Temperature Calculations in Finite Cylinder Caused by Alternating Current
The distribution of electromagnetic fields, forces and source term of temperature induced by an alternating axially-symmetric system of electric current in a cylinder of a finite length with 6 electrodes has been investigated and calculated in [2, 1].
A model of oil burnout from glass fabric
A mathematical model is proposed for the process of the removal (by burning) of oil contained in a glass fibre insulation fabric manufactured in Latvia. The small aspect ratio of the fabric allows simplifications to the modelling which reduce the problem to a single nonlinear ordinary differential equation. When the effects of reflected radiation are also included, the differential equation is supplemented by two integral equations. Predictions of the position of the ‘burning zone’ accord well with observations made at the factory. The effect of the inclusion of extra heating chambers is also examined, and it is found that the temperature gradient in the fabric may be greatly decreased in t…
