Abstract

In this paper a fundamental problem of thermal transport in a channel-gas flow has been studied. The most general solution in terms of integral formulae has been obtained when the duct is bounded by an arbitrary closed contour, the prescribed normal temperature gradient at the wall varies arbitrarily along the periphery, and the specified additional heat generation varies in an arbitrary manner from point to point in a cross-section. The power series solution is also discussed, and is given in a separate section. One of the objects of the present study is to look forward to the qualitative as well as quantitative effects of viscous dissipation and work of compression. Several results and all the graphs of Tao ((13)) have also been corrected.
