INVESTIGATIONS IN THE FIELD OF HEAT EXCHANGE AND HYDRODYNAMICS IN LITHUANIA
J. V. Vilemas UDC 536.24:532.5 Consideration is given to the general features of fundamental thermophysical and hydrodynamic investigations carried out at scientific centers of the Lithuanian Republic. They are concentrated on the study of mixed convection and thermogravitation, processes of transfer as applied to the safety of nuclear reactors, processes of combustion in boilers, thermohydraulic processes in films and cooling basins, heat and mass exchange in two-phase systems of statically stable foams, processes of evaporation of dispersed bodies in complex systems, and issues of civil-engineering thermophysics.
