Abstract The evolution of the flow structure and heat transfer with an increase in the characteristic temperature drop in the ranges of Grashof and Marangoni numbers 3558 ≤ Gr ≤ 7116 and 2970 ≤ Ma ≤ 5939 are investigated numerically. The boundary of the transition to unsteady flow and heat transfer regimes has been determined.

A detailed experimental study has been conducted on the wake-induced unsteady flow and heat transfer in a linear turbine cascade. The unsteady wakes with passing frequencies in the range zero to 240 Hz were generated by moving cylinders on a squirrel cage device. The velocity fields in the blade-to-blade flow and in the boundary layers were measured with hot-wire anemometers, the surface pressures with a pressure transducer and the heat transfer coefficients with a glue-on hot film. The results were obtained in ensemble-averaged form so that periodic unsteady processes can be studied. Of particular interest was the transition of the boundary layer. The boundary layer remained laminar on the pressure side in all cases and in the case without wakes also on the suction side. On the latter, the wakes generated by the moving cylinders caused transition, and the beginning of transition moves forward as the cylinder-passing frequency increases. Unlike in the flat-plate study of Liu and Rodi (1991a) the instantaneous boundary layer state does not respond to the passing wakes and therefore does not vary with time. The heat transfer increases under increasing cylinder-passing frequency even in the regions with laminar boundary layers due to the increased background turbulence.

The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stagnation point flow over a shrinking or stretching flat sheet is investigated. The governing partial differential equations (PDEs) are reduced into a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by a similarity transformation and are solved numerically with the help of MATLAB software. The numerical results obtained are for different values of the magnetic parameter M, heat generation parameter Q, Prandtl number Pr and reciprocal of magnetic Prandtl number ε. The influences of these parameters on the flow and heat transfer characteristics are investigated and shown in tables and graphs. Two solutions are found for a certain rate of the shrinking strength. The stability of the solutions in the long run is determined, and shows that only one of them is stable. It is found that the skin friction coefficient f ″ ( 0 ) and the local Nusselt number − θ ′ ( 0 ) decrease as the magnetic parameter M increases. Further, the local Nusselt number increases as the heat generation increases.
