Abstract

In a boundary wall of a pipe for developed laminar flow, to find the best example in which the least enthalpy and entropy are created, non-uniform distribution of convective flow in wall is studied. Some factors are simulated for transfer coefficient heat variations of moving the pipe. Distribution of temperature, entropy and enthalpy along the radius and distribution of generated entropy and enthalpy along the tube axis are shown. Entropy and enthalpy are reduced along the axis. Entropy, except some areas close to the wall, is increasing along the radius. Temperature and enthalpy, approaching the wall along the radius, have increased.
