Discussion of Boundary Conditions of Transpiration Cooling Problems Using Analytical Solution of LTNE Model
To compare five kinds of different boundary conditions (BCs), an analytical solution of a steady and one-dimensional problem of transpiration cooling described by a local thermal nonequilibrium (LTNE) model is presented in this work. The influence of the five BCs on temperature field and thermal effectiveness is discussed using the analytical solution. Two physical criteria, if the analytical solution of coolant temperature may be higher than hot gas temperature at steady state and if the variation trend of thermal effectiveness with coolant mass flow rate at hot surface is reasonable, are used to estimate the five BCs. Through the discussions, it is confirmed which BCs at all conditions are usable, which BCs under certain conditions are usable, and which BCs are thoroughly unreasonable.
