Heat transfer from a moving fluid sphere with internal heat generation

In this work, we solve numerically the unsteady conduction-convection equation including heat generation inside a fluid sphere. The results of a numerical study in which the Nusselt numbers from a spherical fluid volume were computed for different ranges of Reynolds number (0
