Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this work is to highlight the effects of partial unipolar injection on electro-thermo-convection (ETC) in dielectric liquid contained between two eccentric cylinders.
Design/methodology/approach
A finite volume method was used to solve governing equations. The study is performed for different parameters, such as radius ratio (0.2 ≤ Γ ≤ 0.6), dimensionless electric Rayleigh number (0 ≤ T ≤ 900), eccentricity (−0.4 ≤ e ≤ 0.4) and thermal Rayleigh number (10 ≤ Ra ≤ 5.105).
Findings
It is found that heat transfer increases with increase in dimensionless electric Rayleigh number and eccentricity ratio.
Originality/value
The originality of this work is to analyze the ETC in dielectric liquid subjected to partial unipolar injection between two eccentric cylinders
