Abstract The numerical modelling of the heat flux distribution with neon impurity seeding on CFETR has been performed by the three-dimensional (3D) edge transport code EMC3-EIRENE. The maximum heat flux on divertor targets is about 18 MW m-2 without impurity seeding under the input power of 200 MW entering into the scrape-off layer. In order to mitigate the heat loads below 10 MW m-2, neon impurity seeded at different poloidal positions has been investigated to understand the properties of impurity concentration and heat load distributions for a single toroidal injection location. The majority of the studied neon injections gives rise to a toroidally asymmetric profile of heat load deposition on the in- or out-board divertor targets. The heat loads cannot be reduced below 10 MW m-2 along the whole torus for a single toroidal injection location. In order to achieve the heat load mitigation (<10 MW m-2) along the entire torus, modelling of sole and simultaneous multi-toroidal neon injections near the in- and out-board strike points has been stimulated, which indicates that the simultaneous multi-toroidal neon injections show a better heat flux mitigation on both in- and out-board divertor targets. The maximum heat flux can be reduced below 7 MWm-2 on divertor targets for the studied scenarios of the simultaneous multi-toroidal neon injections.

Spot Cooling

Spot cooling of local-high heat load by high-velocity thin liquid flow was examined experimentally. Steady state experiments were conducted using a copper thin-film and rectangular sub-millimeter-channels. The width of the test channel was 2 mm. The heights of the test channel were 0.5 and 0.2 mm. The width and length of a test heater was 2 mm and 2 mm, respectively. The test liquid was degassed pure water. The liquid velocities were 1.5, 5, 10 and 15 m/s. The liquid subcooling was 20 K. Location of the heater in the test channel also was an experimental parameter: the positions of the heater from the exit of the test channel were 30 mm (middle) and 0 mm (exit). Experimental results showed that the maximum heat flux (CHF or cooling limit) during experiment with the heater at exit of the test channel was similar to that with the heater at middle of the test channel: the maximum heat flux was independent of the position of heater in the test channel. The maximum heat flux occurred when bubbles coalesced together or a dry patch appeared on the heater. The coalescence bubble covered over the heater was observed at CHF in condition of low liquid velocity. For condition of high liquid velocity, a dry patch appeared on the heater, and then the dry region extended over the heater to come around the CHF. The maximum heat flux (critical heat flux) was about 8 MW/m2 in a range of present experiments. The CHF for the present sub-millimeter channel was similar to that for conventional channel. Furthermore, models were proposed using heat transfer around a coalesced bubble and at a dry patch on a heater.

A low dimensional precision is one of drawback for the GMAW-based rapid forming technique, which is related to pressure and heat flux on molten pool. To study pressure and heat flux on molten pool, the effect of droplet impinging process must been considered. A three-dimensional numerical model was built to analysis pressure and heat flux distribution on molten pool. Solving the model, it was found that pressure on the cathode by the arc decreases dramatically when the droplet is coming. As to heat flux, the appearance of droplet cuts down it within about 1.5 mm away from arc axial. Out of 1.5 mm away from arc axial, droplets effect on heat flux is not obvious.

Hydrothermal growth is the industry method of preference to obtain high quality single crystals. Due to the high pressure and high temperature growth conditions, growth process is carried out in closed containers. During a growth run, the only flow and heat transfer that control crystal growers have is the outside heating. An inverse algorithm, used to obtain the heating distribution for an autoclave with a two-dimensional flow, is further developed and used to determine the heating distribution for an industry autoclave with three-dimensional flows. A cross-section area average temperature distribution is set as a target. With the three steps, including CFD simulation of the fluid flow, heat conduction in the metal wall, and heat conduction in the insulation layer, the heater heat flux distribution is determined. The distributions appear close to linear from the median height to the top/bottom with small magnitude deviation in the circumferential direction. Linearly distributed heaters, based on the determined heat flux distribution, are then used and heat transfer and fluid flow is numerically simulated with a conjugate model. The achieved temperature agrees well with the targeted one. The distribution and heating rates of linearly distributed heaters can be applied to industry autoclaves.

Brush Seal

This paper discusses the question of heat flux distribution between bristle package and rotor during a rubbing event. A three-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics (3D CFD) model of the brush seal test rig installed at the Institute of Thermal Turbomachinery (ITS) was created. The bristle package is modelled as a porous medium with local non-thermal equilibrium. The model is used to numerically recalculate experimentally conducted rub tests on the ITS test rig. The experimentally determined total frictional power loss serves as an input parameter to the numerical calculation. By means of statistical evaluation methods, the ma in influences on the heat flux distribution and the maximum temperature in the frictional contact are determined. The heat conductivity of the rotor material, the heat transfer coefficients at the bristles and the rubbing surface were identified as the dominant factors.

Support Of Research

Research conducted at MIT since 1968 stemming from early initiatives on the Blowdown Compressor Experiment and on transonic three dimensional CFD, is reviewed from the viewpoint of the consequences of enlightened support of research by exceptionally capable leaders of government research. Among the consequences in this case are development of detailed understanding of the unsteady flows in transonic compressors and their contribution to losses, and the ability to compute the three-dimensional transonic flow in such machines. Analogous results for turbines include the ability to measure and compute the unsteady heat flux distribution on turbine blades and vanes as well as the flow field. In addition to these research results, the programs which are traceable to Mel Hartmann’s early support have produced more than seven faculty members who continue to teach and conduct research in aircraft propulsion and closely related fields, and a corresponding number of students.
