Notes:
The phenomenon of unsteady heat transfer from a spherical droplet or solid particle moving slowly in a different fluid is analyzed, for the case in which the thermal resistances of the dispersed and continuous phases are comparable. The effect of the Peclet number (over the range 0 ≤ Pe ≤ 1,000) and of the internal circulation of the droplet on the development of temperature fields is investigated. The energy equations for the interior and exterior of the droplet are solved by the finite-difference method of alternating directions. The results are compared with a number of previously published approximate models.
