Correction to: Heat and Mass Transfer
1) On the first page, in the Nomenclatures section, the overbar symbol is missing. Add ¯.
Overbar
¯ normalized
2) On Page 3, at the beginning of the second column, correct \( \dot{q},{\dot{q}}_s^p, and\ {\dot{q}}_f^p \) in the text and Eq. 1; the dots, subscripts, and superscripts are misaligned.
At steady state, the total heat flow (\( \dot{q} \)) in a parallel configuration is the sum of the heat flow in the solid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_s^p \)) plus the heat flow in the fluid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_f^p\Big) \),
3) On Page 4, at the beginning of the second column, correct \( \dot{q},{\dot{q}}_s^s, and\ {\dot{q}}_f^s \) in the text and Eq. 8; the dots, subscripts, and superscripts are misaligned.
At steady state, the total heat flow (\( \dot{q} \)) in a series configuration is equal to the heat flow in the solid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_s^s \)) and the heat flow in the fluid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_f^s\Big) \):
4) On Page 5, the second column starting with the sentence before Eq. 19a, change Eq. 20 to Eq. 17. Correct, Eqs. 19a and 19b by adding overbars, on \( {\overline{S}}_s^p,{\overline{A}}_s^p,{\overline{S}}_f^p, and\ {\overline{A}}_f^p \).
The normalized Langmuir shape factors in Eq. 17 are related to the normalized cross-sectional areas and porosity as follows:
5) On Page 6, Correct Eqs. 29a and 29b by adding overbars on \( {\overline{S}}_s^s,{\overline{A}}^s,{\overline{S}}_f^s, and\kern0.5em {\overline{A}}^s \).
6) On Page 7, the second paragraph on the second column, correct \( \dot{q},{\dot{q}}_s^p,{\dot{q}}_f^p,\kern0.5em and\ {\dot{q}}_{sf}^s \) in the text and Eq. 35; the dots, subscripts, and superscripts are misaligned.
Assuming the solid and fluid phases of the porous medium are transferring heat in parallel and series at the same time. Simple superpositioning of the parallel and series heat transfer configuration results in an energy balance where the total heat flow (\( \dot{q} \)), at steady state is the sum of the parallel heat flow in the solid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_s^p \)), the parallel heat flow in the fluid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_f^p\Big), \)and the series heat flow through the solid-phase and fluid-phase \( \left({\dot{q}}_{sf}^s\right) \).
7) On Page 7, Eq. 36, correct \( {\overline{k}}_e,{\overline{k}}_f,\kern0.5em {\overline{S}}_s^p,{\overline{S}}_s^s,\kern0.5em and\ {\overline{S}}_f^s \)by adding the overbars,
8) On Page 8, Eq. 41, correct, \( {\overline{k}}_e\kern0.5em and\ {\overline{k}}_f,\kern0.5em \)by adding the overbars,
9) On Page 8, the beginning of the second column, the last sentence before Section 4, change “Equations 40 to 43” to “Equations 38 to 41”,
Equations. 38 to 41 represent the re-examined parallel-series model.
10) On Page 12, Fig. 13 caption, correct (\( {\dot{q}}_s^p/\dot{q}\Big),\left({\dot{q}}_f^p/\dot{q}\right) \), and (\( {\dot{q}}_{sf}^p/\dot{q}\Big) \); the dots, subscripts, and superscripts are misaligned.
Fig. 13. Fractions of the parallel heat transfer through the solid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_s^p/\dot{q}\Big) \) and the fluid-phase \( \left({\dot{q}}_f^p/\dot{q}\right) \); also shown is the fraction of the series heat transfer through the solid and fluid phases (\( {\dot{q}}_{sf}^p/\dot{q}\Big) \) vs. porosity: comparisons between the re-examined parallel and the re-examined parallel-series models.
11) On Page 13, first column, second paragraph, correct (\( {\dot{q}}_s^p/\dot{q}\Big),\left({\dot{q}}_f^p/\dot{q}\right) \), and (\( {\dot{q}}_{sf}^p/\dot{q}\Big) \); the dots, subscripts, and superscripts are misaligned.
Fractions of the parallel heat transfer through the solid-phase (\( {\dot{q}}_s^p/\dot{q}\Big) \) and through the fluid-phase \( \left({\dot{q}}_f^p/\dot{q}\right) \), as predicted by the re-examined parallel and parallel-series model, are shown in Fig. 13; where \( \dot{q} \) is the total heat transfer rate. Also shown in Fig. 13 is a fraction of the series heat transfer through the solid and fluid phases (\( {\dot{q}}_{sf}^p/\dot{q}\Big) \), as predicted by the parallel-series model.
