Natural convection flow in a vertical tube inspired by time-periodic heating

This paper theoretically analyzes the flow formation and heat transfer characteristics of fully developed natural convection flow in a vertical tube due to time periodic heating of the surface of the tube. The mathematical model responsible for the present physical situation is presented under relev...
