This study concerns the analysis of the particle deposition rate of a two-dimensional, laminar, steady, and incompressible mixed convective flow over a vertical hot or cold cylinder subjected to the effects of convection, diffusion, geometric curvature and thermopheoresis. Employing non-similar equations to solve the boundary layer equation, the distributions of velocity, temperature, and mass and the deposition rate are shown. The results show that, within the non-uniform temperature field, the aerosol particle deposition rate is largely influenced by thermopherosis and convection. The particles are attracted to move toward the cold cylinder, and are blown away from the hot cylinder. On the other hand, as the particle diameter becomes larger than 0.1 μm, the deposition rate is shown to approach a constant value. This result is more obvious under the effect of thermophoresis. The larger the surface cylinder curvature, the higher the deposition rate. Buoyancy enhances the particle deposition rate onto a cold cylinder. |
