Abstract The paper presents the results of the study of evaporation and boiling in a thin horizontal layer of liquid on microstructured surfaces in a wide range of changes in pressure. It is found that the thermal conductivity of materials of microstructured surfaces significantly affects the mechanism of steam removal from the pores and circulation of liquid along the heat transfer surface. It is determined that the pressure change leads to three regimes of heat transfer: evaporation, transition regime, and bubble boiling. The lowest values of the heat transfer coefficients and CHF were obtained in the transition regime; the highest ones were obtained in the bubble regime on both surfaces. Due to the higher thermal conductivity, the higher heat transfer coefficients and CHF were obtained on the bronze coating than on stainless steel over the entire pressure range.

Mass and heat transfer coefficients (MTC and HTC) in automotive exhaust catalytic monolith channels are estimated and correlated for a wide range of gas velocities and prevailing conditions of small up to real size converters. The coefficient estimation is based on a two dimensional computational fluid dynamic (2-D CFD) model developed in Comsol Multiphysics, taking into account catalytic rates of a real catalytic converter. The effect of channel size and reaction rates on mass and heat transfer coefficients and the applicability of the proposed correlations at different conditions are discussed. The correlations proposed predict very satisfactorily the mass and heat transfer coefficients calculated from the 2-D CFD model along the channel length. The use of a one dimensional (1-D) simplified model that couples a plug flow reactor (PFR) with mass transport and heat transport effects using the mass and heat transfer correlations of this study is proved to be appropriate for the simulation of the monolith channel operation.

This paper experimentally investigates the effect of rotation on heat transfer in typical turbine blade serpentine coolant passage with ribbed walls at low Mach numbers. To achieve the low Mach number (around 0.01) condition, pressurized Freon R-134a vapor is utilized as the working fluid. The flow in the first passage is radial outward, after the 180 deg tip turn the flow is radial inward to the second passage, and after the 180 deg hub turn the flow is radial outward to the third passage. The effects of rotation on the heat transfer coefficients were investigated at rotation numbers up to 0.6 and Reynolds numbers from 30,000 to 70,000. Heat transfer coefficients were measured using the thermocouples-copper-plate-heater regional average method. Heat transfer results are obtained over a wide range of Reynolds numbers and rotation numbers. An increase in heat transfer rates due to rotation is observed in radially outward passes; a reduction in heat transfer rate is observed in the radially inward pass. Regional heat transfer coefficients are correlated with Reynolds numbers for nonrotation and with rotation numbers for rotating condition, respectively. The results can be useful for understanding real rotor blade coolant passage heat transfer under low Mach number, medium–high Reynolds number, and high rotation number conditions.

In turbulent condensation with noncondensable gas, a thin noncondensable layer accumulates and generates a diffusional resistance to condensation and sensible heat transfer. By expressing the driving potential for mass transfer as a difference in saturation temperatures and using appropriate thermodynamic relationships, here an effective “condensation” thermal conductivity is derived. With this formulation, experimental results for vertical tubes and plates demonstrate that condensation obeys the heat and mass transfer analogy, when condensation and sensible heat transfer are considered simultaneously. The sum of the condensation and sensible heat transfer coefficients becomes infinite at small gas concentrations, and approaches the sensible heat transfer coefficient at large concentrations. The “condensation” thermal conductivity is easily applied to engineering analysis, and the theory further demonstrates that condensation on large vertical surfaces is independent of the surface height.

Optimum dimensions of circular fins of trapezoidal profile with variable thermal conductivity and heat transfer coefficients are obtained. Linear variation of the thermal conductivity is considered of the form k = k0(1 + εT/T0), and the heat transfer coefficient is assumed to vary according to a power law with distance from the bore, expressed as h = K[(r − r0)/(r0 − re)]m. The results for m = 0, 0.8, 2.0, and −0.4 ≤ ε ≤ 0.4, have been expressed by suitable nondimensional parameters which are presented graphically. It is shown that considering the thermal conductivity as constant, the optimum base thickness and volume of the fin are inversely proportional to the thermal conductivity of the material of the fin, while the optimum length and effectiveness are independent of the properties of the material used.

Polyisocyanurate (PIR) thermal insulation boards faced with carboard, plastic, aluminum, or multilayer facings are used for thermal insulation of buildings. Facing materials are selected according to the conditions of use of PIR products. At the corners of the building where these products are joined, facings can be in the direction of the heat flux movement and significantly increase heat transfer through the linear thermal bridge formed in the connection of PIR boards with facing of both walls. Analyzing the installation of PIR thermal insulation products on the walls of a building, the structural schemes of linear thermal bridges were created, numerical calculations of the heat transfer coefficients of the linear thermal bridges were performed, and the influence of various facings on the heat transfer through the thermal bridge was evaluated. Furthermore, an experimental measurement using a heat flow meter apparatus was performed in order to confirm the results obtained by numerical calculation. This study provides more understanding concerning the necessity to evaluate the impact of different thermal conductivity facings on the heat transfer through corners of buildings insulated with PIR boards.

Heat transfer coefficients were measured for forced convection of isobutanol in crossflow past coiled wires with different coil geometries. Flow rate and heat flux have been varied over a wide range to include laminar and turbulent flow for convective sensible and subcooled boiling heat transfer. To investigate the effect of coil geometry on heat transfer, the wire diameter, coil diameter, and coil pitch were varied systematically. The measured data are compared with the predictions of four correlations from the literature.

Measurements are reported of heat transfer coefficients in steady natural convection on a vertical constant flux plate embedded in a saturated porous medium. Results show that heat transfer coefficients can be adequately determined via a Darcy-based model, and our results confirm a correlation proposed by Bejan [Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer. 26(9), 1339–1346 (1983)]. It is speculated that the reason that the Darcy model works well in the present case is that the porous medium has a lower effective Prandtl number near the wall than in the bulk medium. The factors that contribute to this effect include the thinning of the boundary layer near the wall and an increase of effective thermal conductivity.

Local heat transfer coefficients on a flat plate surface downstream a row of cylindrical ejection holes were investigated. The parameters blowing angle, hole pitch, blowing rate, and density ratio were varied over a wide range, emphasizing engine relevant conditions. A high-resolution IR-thermography technique was used for measuring surface temperature fields. Local heat transfer coefficients were obtained from a Finite Element analysis. IR-determined surface temperatures and backside temperatures of the cooled test plate measured with thermocouples were applied as boundary conditions in this heat flux computation. The superposition approach was employed to obtain the heat transfer coefficient hf based on the difference between actual wall temperatures and adiabatic wall temperatures in the presence of film cooling. The hf data are given for an engine relevant density ratio of 1.8. Therefore, heat transfer results with different wall temperature conditions and adiabatic film cooling effectiveness results for identical flow situations (i.e., constant density ratios) were combined. Characteristic surface patterns of the locally resolved heat transfer coefficients hf are recognized and quantified as the different ejection parameters are changed. The detailed results are used to discuss the specific local heat transfer behavior in the presence of film cooling. They also provide a base of surface data essential for the validation of the heat transfer capabilities of CFD codes in discrete hole film cooling.

The results of experimental research of heat exchange under the nucleate boiling of refrigerants R404a, R407c and R410a on the tubes with capillary-porous coating are presented. Experimental studies were carried out with the aid of an experimental installation in conditions of a large volume at pressures of saturation pн = 0.9–1.4 MPa and densities of the heat flux q = 5–35 kW/m2. For the first time the criterion equation for the calculation of the intensity of heat transfer during evaporation of ozone safe refrigerants on surfaces with high thermal conductivity sintered capillary-porous coating was obtained. Experimental data are summarized satisfactorily in a wide range of parameters of the porous layer, i.e. the pressure (pн = 0.9–1.4 MPa) and heat loads (q = 5–35 kW/m2). The ratio makes us possible to calculate the heat transfer coefficients within ±20 %. The dependence can be used in engineering calculations of the characteristics of the heat exchangers of the evaporative type. The coefficient of heat transfer during boiling of refrigerants on the investigated surfaces with the sintered capillary-porous coating, 4 times higher than on a smooth one and 1.5 times higher than on the finned surface, that allows us to come to a conclusion about the advantage of porous coatings. Boiling in capillary-porous coating leads to a decrease in weight and size of the installations due to the heat exchange intensification and the size of the tubes smaller as compared to the size of the finned ones.

In spite of very significant progress in analytical and numerical methods during recent years, experimental techniques are still essential tools for the development of cooled turbine nozzles. This paper describes the major elements of the development process for cooled turbine nozzles with a primary emphasis on advanced experimental heat transfer techniques. Thermochromic liquid crystals were used to measure the internal (coolant side) heat transfer coefficients of a practical vane cooling design which has a combination of different heat transfer augmenting devices. A comparison of the results and analytical predictions provided validations of existing correlations which were developed from the generic cases (usually one type of augmenting device). The overall cooling design was evaluated in a full-scale annular hot cascade which maintained heat transfer similarity. The freestream turbulence level was measured with an in-house developed heat flux probe. Cooling effectiveness distribution was evaluated from the surface metal temperatures mapped with an in-house developed wide range temperature pyrometer. The test results led to the fine-tuning of the nozzle vane cooling design.
