Abstract
This paper presents a theoretical study of conjugate heat/mass transfer from a circular cylinder with an internal heat/mass source and a surrounding fluid flow. The heat/mass source consists of a constant temperature/concentration wire imbedded in the cylinder center. A finite difference method discretizes the equations. The multigrid method solves the discrete system. Numerical investigations were carried out for cylinder Re numbers equal to 2 and 20. The values of the Pr number were selected such that the product Re × Pr is constant and equal to 100. The main aspect analysed is the influence of the conductivity ratio on the local and average Nu numbers at different values of the wire diameter.
