Title: The science and the history of the two Bejan numbers.
Authors: Awad, M.M.1 m_m_awad@mans.edu.eg

Subjects: Thermodynamics, Fluid mechanics, Heat transfer, Heat convection, Reynolds number
Abstract: In this note, a historical view on the Bejan numbers ( Be ) is presented. There are two definitions of Bejan number ( Be ) in the fields of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and mass transfer. A general form of Bejan number ( Be ) is introduced, and application of Bejan number ( Be ) to flows in porous media is shown. The note concludes with a critical discussion of the view that Bejan number in convection ( Be ) is the combination of the Euler ( Eu ) and Reynolds ( Re ) numbers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
