본 연구에서는 K.J.Riu의 연구를 확장하여, 상향유동 영역에서 수직면으로부 터 경사각이 60˚이하인 경사등온면이 저온의 물속에 잠겨있을때 일어나는 다중정상상 태 영역을 밝혀내고, 이 영역에서 경사각이 열전달, 온도분포, 속도분포, 부력분포 및 Nusselt수에 미치는 영향을 구명하였다.또한 해석방법은 이제까지 발표된 연구결과 와 비교검토하기 위하여 기존 논문에서와 같이 상사해석을 사용하였다.
This study has been performed on multiple steady-state natural convection in the upflow region induced by an inclined isothermal plate immersed in pure cold water. The newly found additional steady-state solutions are of considerable practical interest because the heat-transfer rates for a pair of solutions with determining physical parameters and boundary conditions otherwise identical are sometimes vastly different. The results are as follows: First, in the largely upflow region, two solutions exist for 0.15157<R.leq.0.15157 (R=density extremum parameter). The range of the region was constant regardless of inclination angle. Second, as the inclination angle increases, the velocity boundary layer, thermal boundary layer and buoyant boundary layer increase along the downstream. Third, as the inclination angle increases, mean Nusselt number decreases.
