Yes, the flow is developing in the entrance region. The developed flow should have parabolic velocity distribution due to viscous effect, which means lower velocity close to the wall. Close to wall, in entrance, the u velocity should be reducing, (u)in+(v)out=(u)out (continuity). Therefore, v...

Nod, Nod. I misunderstood the question. Sorry!

yes. lim(x->x0) {[f(x)-f(x0)]/(x-x0)}*lim(x->x0){x-x0}=0 Therefore, lim(x->x0){f(x)-f(x0)}=0, lim(x->x0) {f(x)}=f(x0)..

How about these? Title: Spacecraft thermal control handbook / David G. Gilmore, editor. Edition: 2nd ed. Published: El Segundo, Calif. : Aerospace Press ; Reston, Va. : American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, c2002- Description: v. : ill. ; 24 cm. Notes: Includes...

Up. I am looking for the same.

Actually, I should write non-uniform instead of uneven..

Try ASME website or engineering index. In order to do research, you need to have some web access. You should be able to get access from a university library.

I guess the back pressure of 4 outlets are same. Air is incompressible at room temperature. If so, the only reason that can cause uneven mass flow at outlet is uneven pressure distribution. This depends on inlet air velocity, inlet area comparing to the box volume, and locations of 4 holes...

Thermal fluid problem can be studies in two scales, macro and micro. If you try to study the problem in micro scale, there is no pressure, temperature, viscosity and so on. There is only kinetic energy of molecules in three directions. Normally, we study the problem in macro scale, in...

Don't know free ones. But there are many here paid for. www.knovel.com

Dr. Japikse has a book called Diffuser Design Technology. You can try to take a look first. http://www.conceptseti.com/education/pub_books.htm#two

Show the definition of L and L'..?

Try this to see if it works. s=C_{v}\ln T_{2}/T_{1}+R\ln V_{2}/V_{1}

You can get in Engineering first and decide your major when you become senior. I would say Aero is the best choice for your goals. You can go to a school physically close to a NASA division and then get a co-op experience with NASA. You will have more chance to work for NASA after you graduate...

ANSYS is always the common one for thermal analysis.
