Energy transfer is a complex phenomenon influenced by various factors, including cavity geometry, obstacles, and different modes of convection. These variables introduce complexity into the process, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles to harness and manipulate energy effectively. Natural convection, mixed convection, and forced convection are distinct modes through which heat transfer occurs within these cavities, playing a pivotal role in the movement of thermal energy. Additionally, the concept of entropy generation is crucial, representing the irreversible nature of energy transformation and emphasizing the need to minimize it for enhanced energy efficiency.
The goal of this research topic is to provide a platform for interdisciplinary exploration of the principles underlying efficient energy transfer, focusing on the interplay between cavity geometry, obstacles, various modes of convection, and entropy generation. We aim to facilitate a deeper understanding of these concepts and their applications across a wide range of fields. Through this research, we seek to identify novel approaches and innovative solutions to optimize energy transfer processes, enhance sustainability, and improve performance in fields such as engineering, thermodynamics, aerospace, electronics cooling, renewable energy, biomedical engineering, environmental science, chemical engineering, material science, construction and architecture, and the food industry.
This research topic invites contributions that delve into the intricacies of energy transfer, cavity geometry, obstacles, and different modes of convection, with a particular emphasis on minimizing entropy generation for increased energy efficiency.
