Thermo-mechanical failure of components in planar-type solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) depends strongly on the local temperature gradients at the interfaces of different materials. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to accurately predict the temperature fields within the stack, especially near the interfaces. Because of elevated operating temperatures (of the order of 1000 K or even higher), radiation heat transfer could become a dominant mode of heat transfer in the SOFCs. In this study, we extend our recent work on radiative effects in solid oxide fuel cells (Journal of Power Sources, Vol. 124, No. 2, pp. 453–458) by accounting for the spectral dependence of the radiative properties of the electrolyte material. The measurements of spectral radiative properties of the polycrystalline yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte we performed indicate that an optically thin approximation can be used for treatment of radiative heat transfer. To this end, the Schuster-Schwartzchild two-flux approximation is used to solve the radiative transfer equation (RTE) for the spectral radiative heat flux, which is then integrated over the entire spectrum using an N-band approximation to obtain the total heat flux due to thermal radiation. The divergence of the total radiative heat flux is then incorporated as a heat sink into a 3-D thermo-fluid model of a SOFC through the user-defined function utility in the commercial FLUENT CFD software. The results of sample calculations are reported and compared against the baseline cases when no radiation effects are included and when the spectrally gray approximation is used for treatment of radiative heat transfer.

Numerical model of the convective-radiative heat transfer of porous media was proposed. A stainless wire-net was used as porous media. The physical properties, consisting of porosity (φ) and optical thickness (τ0), of porous media were independent variables. The air velocity was reported in the form of Reynolds number (Re). Two equations of the conservative energy with local thermal non-equilibrium were analyzed. The gas (θf) and solid (θs) phases of conservative energy equation inside porous media were investigated. The radiative heat flux (ψ) at down-stream of solid phase emitted into outside was dealt by the P1 approximation. From the study, it was found that the level of θf and θs decreased as Re increased because the effect of convection heat transfer. Inversely, the level of ψ increased as increasing Re. The level of θf, θs and ψ were decreased as φ increased owing to a lower volume of material depended on the increasing level of φ resulting to the heat transfer rate became lower. The level of θf, θs and ψ gave increased with τ0 becaues a wider distance in absorping energy leading to a higher emission energy from the porous media was achieved.

PurposeMiniaturization with high thermal performance and lower cost is one of the advanced developments in industrial science chemical and engineering fields including microheat exchangers, micro mixers, micropumps, cooling microelectro mechanical devices, etc. In addition to this, the minimization of the entropy is the utilization of the energy of thermal devices. Based on this, in the present investigation, micropolar nanofluid flow through an inclined channel under the impacts of viscous dissipation and mixed convection with velocity slip and temperature jump has been numerically studied. Also the influence of magnetism and radiative heat flux is used.Design/methodology/approachThe nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations are obtained by applying suitable dimensionless variables to the governing equations, and then the Runge–Kutta–Felhberg integration scheme is used to find the solution of velocity and temperature. Entropy generation and Bejan number are calculated via using these solutions.FindingsIt is established to notice that the entropy generation can be improved with the aspects of viscous dissipation, magnetism and radiative heat flux. The roles of angle of inclination (α), Eckert number (Ec), Reynolds number (Re), thermal radiation (Rd), material parameter (K),  slip parameter (δ), microinertial parameter (aj), magnetic parameter (M), Grashof number (Gr) and pressure gradient parameter (A) are demonstrated. It is found that the angle of inclination and Grashof number enhances the entropy production while it is diminished with material parameter and magnetic parameter.Originality/valueElectrically conducting micropolar nanofluid flow through an inclined channel subjected to the friction irreversibility with temperature jump and velocity slip under the influence of radiative heat flux has been numerically investigated.
