Abstract We present the results of hybrid RANS/LES computations of non-isothermal buoyant flow in a rapidly revolving enclosure with paraxial transit stream of the cooling air. Foil heat flux meters mounted on the disk surface in the base experiment are mimicked by means of the grid resolved macro-relief. The results obtained using the relief and smooth disk models are collated with available measurements. According to the simulation, the addition of the relief has resulted in switching from two to three pairs of cyclonic/anti-cyclonic global circulations, and the overall heat transfer rate has increased by 20%. It has been found also that the sensor readings can be up to 25% higher than the heat flux averaged over the circumference at the same radius. Despite this distinct effect of the surface relief, the local heat transfer rate is still underestimated considerably as compared to measurements.

Heat transfer characteristics of a three-pass serpentine flow passage with rotation are experimentally studied. The walls of the square flow passage are plated with thin stainless-steel foils through which electrical current is applied to generate heat. The local heat transfer performance on the four side walls of the three straight flow passages and two turning elbows are determined for both stationary and rotating cases. The throughflow Reynolds, Rayleigh (centrifugal type), and rotation numbers are varied. It is revealed that three-dimensional flow structures cause the heat transfer rate at the bends to be substantially higher than at the straight flow passages. This mechanism is revealed by means of a flow visualization experiment for a nonrotating case. Along the first straight flow passage, the heat transfer rate is increased on the trailing surface but is reduced on the leading surface, due to the action of secondary streams induced by the Coriolis force. At low Reynolds numbers, the local heat transfer performance is primarily a function of buoyancy force. In the higher Reynolds number range, however, the circumferentially averaged Nusselt number is only a weak function of the Rayleigh and rotation numbers.

Abstract In the supercritical water (SCW)-particle two-phase flow of fluidized bed, the particles that make up the particle cluster interact with each other through fluid, and it will affect the flow and heat transfer. However, due to the complex properties of SCW, the research on particle cluster is lacking, especially in terms of heat transfer. This research takes two particles as an example to study the heat transfer characteristics between SCW and another particle when one particle exists. This research uses the distance and angle between the two particles as the influencing factors to study the average heat transfer rate and local heat transfer rate. In this research, it is found that the effect is obvious when L/D = 1.1. When L = 1.1D, the temperature field and the flow field will partially overlap. The overlap of the temperature field will weaken the heat transfer between SCW and the particle. The overlap of the flow field has an enhanced effect on the heat transfer between SCW and the particle. The heat transfer between SCW and particles is simultaneously affected by these two effects, especially local heat transfer rate. In addition, this research also found that as the SCW temperature decreases, the thermal conductivity and specific heat of SCW increases, which enhances the heat transfer between SCW and the particles. This research is of great significance for studying the heat transfer characteristics of SCW-particle two-phase flow in fluidized bed.

Contemporary electronic systems currently generate high heat fluxes at component level. Impingement cooling is an effective way to generate high heat transfer coefficients in order to meet thermal constraints. This paper investigates the heat transfer and hydrodynamic characteristics of a confined impinging liquid jet with a nozzle-to-plate spacing (H/D) ratio of 0.5. A custom measurement facility was created to infer local heat transfer rates from infra-red images of a jet impinging on a 12.5μm thick stainless steel foil configured to generate uniform heat flux. Particle-Image Velocimetry (PIV) was performed in order to obtain quantitative velocity data within the jet. A series of experiments were run for Reynolds numbers (Re) in the range of 1,000–24,000 for a jet of 8 mm diameter (D). For Re > 4,000, the local heat transfer rate — in terms of Nusselt number (Nu) as a function of dimensionless radius (r/D) — had a plateau section between 0 < r/D < 0.6 followed by a peak at r/D ∼ 1.35. For higher Re the Nu peak exceeds that of the plateau section. For Re < 4,000, a plateau section exists between 0 < r/D < 0.4 followed by a shoulder located between 1 < r/D < 1.4. The PIV data for Re > 4,000 showed a strong vortex in the area of the secondary peak in Nu which was not present in the lower Re range. This phenomenon — the local peaks of heat transfer rate — has been previously reported in the literature with a degree of uncertainty as to the related fluid mechanics. This paper contributes to an understanding of the fluidic phenomenon responsible for the distribution of heat transfer rate in confined jets.

In this present work, nonlinear dynamic analysis was performed to the fluctuation signals of the local heat transfer rate measured in three-phase reactors of different scales to characterize the dynamics of three-phase reactors. The results of nonlinear test with surrogate data give evidence of nonlinear determinism in heat transfer rates series. The chaotic nature of the local heat transfer rate was further characterized in terms of the correlation dimension and Kolmogorov entropy. It was found that the correlation dimensions were in the range between 2.0 and 4.0 and Kolmogorov entropies were varied with the change of measurement positions and the operating conditions. With the increase of column scale or the addition of solids, Kolmogorov entropies decrease significantly. The dependence of chaotic parameters on the column scale is considered to be closely related to the different macroscopic flow structures observed in three-phase reactors of different scales.

The problem of radiant heat transfer between parallel disks has been analyzed by generalizing the standard gray-body enclosure theory. In particular, the assumption that the radiant flux leaving a surface and the local heat flux are uniformly distributed over the surface has been lifted by an integral equation formulation. It has been shown that the general problem of disks at arbitrarily different temperatures can be conveniently broken down into two subproblems, each of which can be solved independently of the temperature level. Numerical solutions of the governing integral equations have been carried out for spacing ratios h/R (h = spacing, R = disk radius) ranging from 5.0 to 0.05 and for emissivities ranging from 0.1 to 0.9. Local heat-transfer results have been presented which, depending on spacing and emissivity, display marked variations over the disk surface. Over-all heat-transfer results have been calculated and compared with the predictions of the standard simplified enclosure theory. These predictions of the simplified theory were found to be unexpectedly good, especially in view of the large surface variations of the local heat transfer.

Abstract In this study, we use infrared thermography to calculate local heat transfer coefficients of top and bottom heated flows of near-critical carbon dioxide in an array of parallel microchannels. These data are used to evaluate the relative importance of buoyancy for different flow arrangements. A Joule heated thin wall made of Inconel 718 applies a uniform heat flux either above or below the horizontal flow. A Torlon PAI test section consists of three parallel microchannels with a hydraulic diameter of 923 μm. The reduced inlet temperature (TR = 1.006) and reduced pressure (PR = 1.03) are held constant. For each heater orientation, the mass flux (520 kgm−2s−2 ≤ G ≤ 800 kgm−2s−2) and heat flux (4.7 Wcm−2 ≤ q″ ≤ 11.1 Wcm−2) are varied. A 2D resistance network analysis method calculates the bulk temperatures and heat transfer coefficients. In this analysis, we divide the test section into approximately 250 segments along the stream-wise direction. We then calculate the bulk temperatures using the enthalpy from the upstream segment, the heat flux in a segment, and the pressure. To isolate the effect of buoyancy, we screen the data to omit conditions where flow acceleration may be important or where relaminarization may occur. In the developed region of the channel, there was a 10 to 15 percent reduction of the local heat transfer coefficients for the upward heating mode compared to downward heating with the same mass and heat fluxes. Thus buoyancy effects should be considered when developing correlations for these types of flow.

Predicting cooling flow migration and its impact on surface heat flux for a turbine operating at design-corrected conditions is a challenging task. While recent data sets have provided a baseline for comparison, they have also raised many questions about comparison methods and the proper implementation of boundary conditions. Simplified experiments are helpful for bridging the gap between the experimental and computational worlds to develop the best procedures for generating predictions and correctly comparing them to experiments. To this end, a flat-plate configuration has been developed that replicates the cooling hole pattern of the pressure side of a high-pressure turbine blade. The heat transfer for this configuration is investigated for a range of flow properties of current interest to the industry using a medium-duration blowdown facility. Heat-flux measurements are obtained using double-sided Kapton heat-flux gauges arrayed in two rows in the axial direction along the centerline of the hole pattern. Gauges are located upstream of the holes, in between rows of holes, and extending far downstream of the last row of holes. New parameters are proposed for analyzing the data including a corrected Stanton number and the length-corrected heat flux reduction parameter. These parameters are used for exploring the influence of Reynolds number and blowing ratio on local heat transfer. In addition, the temperatures of the main flow and the test section walls were varied to determine the effect of cooling on the local adiabatic wall temperature and to enable comparisons using the adiabatic cooling effectiveness.
