Flow And Heat Transfer

This work presents a post-processing tool for the verification of steady-state fluid flow and heat transfer finite volume computations. It is based both on the generalized Richardson extrapolation and the Grid Convergence Index GCI. The observed order of accuracy and a error band where the grid independent solution is expected to be contained are estimated. The results corresponding to the following two and three-dimensional steady-state simulations are post-processed: a flow inside a cavity with moving top wall, an axisymmetric turbulent flow through a compressor valve, a premixed methane/air laminar flat flame on a perforated burner, and the heat transfer from an isothermal cylinder enclosed by a square duct. Discussion is carried out about the certainty of the estimators obtained with the post-processing procedure. They have been shown to be useful parameters in order to assess credibility and quality to the reported numerical solutions.

Uniform Wall

The objective of this paper is to study the characteristic of a circular tube with a built-in arc belt on fluid flow and heat transfer in uniform wall temperature flows. Numerical simulations for hydrodynamically laminar flow was direct ran at Re between 600 and 1800. Preliminary results on velocity and temperature statistics for uniform wall temperature show that, arc belt can swirl the pipe fluid, so that the fluid at the center of the tube and the fluid of the boundary layer of the wall can mix fully, and plays the role of enhanced heat transfer, but also significantly increases the resistance of the fluid and makes the resistance coefficient of the enhanced tube greater than smooth tube. The combination property PEC is all above 1.5.
