Summary

AN ANALYSIS WAS CARRIED OUT FOR THE TEMPERATURE AND THE VELOCITY FIELDS OF A HEAT GENERATING FLUID WITHIN A HORIZONTAL CYLINDER. THE MAIN CONCERN WAS ON THE CASE THAT A FROZEN LAYER WAS FORMED AROUND THE INNER SURFACE OF THE CYLINDER, WHICH WAS COOLED ISOTHERMALLY TO BELOW A FUSION TEMPERATURE. THE RATE OF HEAT GENERATION WAS ASSUMED TO BE CONSTANT AND UNIFORM THROUGHOUT THE LIQUID AND THE SOLID. THE CALCULATED TEMPERATURE AND VELOCITY FIELDS OF THELIQUID CONFINED IN THE FROZEN LAYER BECAME SIMILAR TO THOSE WITHOUT A FROZEN LAYER, WHEN THE RAYLEIGH NUMBERS WERE EVALUATED WITH THE EQUIVALENT DIAMETER OF THE LIQUID.
