Etude numérique de transfert de chaleur d’un écoulement de fluide dans un canal cylindrique

Abstract

The discretization of the governing equations by the finite volume method allows to introduce them into a digital program executed by the microcomputer, which has the property of a fast resolution and avoid the calculation errors that the man can do because of the large number of operations. This work then concerns the study of heat transfer of a fluid in a cylindrical channel by numerical simulation and by use of the Finite Volume Method (M.V.F.) with application on MATLAB. During this stady, we evaluated the influence of the fluid velocity and the pipe thickness on the temperature
