. In heat exchangers, an incompressible ﬂuid is heated initially and cooled at the boundary. The goal is to transfer the heat to the boundary as eﬃciently as possible. In this paper we study a related steady version of this problem where a steadily stirred ﬂuid is uniformly heated in the interior and cooled on the boundary. For a given large Péclet number, how should one stir to minimize some norm of the temperature? This version of the problem was previously studied by Marcotte, Doering et al…

Motivated by the search for sharp bounds on turbulent heat transfer as well as the design of optimal heat exchangers, we consider incompressible flows that most efficiently cool an internally heated
Three dimensional branching pipe flows for optimal scalar transport between walls
We consider the problem of “wall-to-wall optimal transport” in which we attempt to maximize the transport of a passive temperature ﬁeld between hot and cold plates. Speciﬁcally, we optimize the

Natural convection is omnipresent on Earth. A basic and well-studied model for it is Rayleigh–Bénard convection, the fluid flow in a layer heated from below and cooled from above. Most explorations
