In this study, local heat transfer data under arrays of free-surface liquid jets are measured with a two-dimensional infrared radiometer. Experimental measurements were made for three nozzle diameters using a seven-jet staggered and a nine-jet inline geometric array configuration. Nozzle-to-plate spacings of two and five nozzle diameters were investigated for four jet center-to-center spacings ranging from two to eight diameters in the jet Reynolds number range of 5000 to 20,000. Results show that the stagnation Nusselt number under the central jet is independent of array configuration and jet-to-jet spacing. The different inter jet flow interaction, as represented by different jet array configurations (the in-line array and the staggered array with different nozzle-to-nozzle spacings), shows negligible influence on local heat transfer under the central jet. Differences in the heat transfer characteristics for the two nozzle-to-plate spacings investigated were the result of an observed transition from confined submerged central jet flow to free-surface jet flow as the nozzle-to-plate spacing was increased. Secondary maxima in the Nusselt number were observed between the adjacent jets, being a direct consequence of the radial flow interaction between jets. A correlation for average heat transfer is presented.

This is the second of a two-part study on the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics of turbulent, free-surface liquid jets. Part 2 deals with the effect of selected nozzle configurations on the local heat transfer in the stagnation zone. Infrared techniques have been used to characterize the local heat transfer for the four nozzle configurations whose mean and turbulent flow structure was detailed in Part 1. The results show that for identical jet Reynolds numbers, significant differences exist in the magnitudes of the local Nusselt number for the nozzle types studied. Differences of approximately 40 percent were observed. Local heat transfer results reveal that for already turbulent jets, the mean radial velocity gradient appears to be more influential in determining the heat transfer than incremental changes in the level of turbulence (as measured by the radial component of the fluctuations). An empirical correlation of the experimental data supports this conclusion, and reveals that the stagnation Nusselt number is affected independently by the jet Reynolds number and the dimensionless mean radial velocity gradient.

Heat Transfer Augmentation

Microchannels and minichannels have been shown to have many potential applications for cooling high-heat-flux electronics over the past 3 decades. Synthetic jets can enhance minichannel performance by adding net momentum flux into a stream without adding mass flux. These jets are produced because of different flow patterns that emerge during the induction and expulsion stroke of a diaphragm, and when incorporated into minichannels can disrupt boundary layers and impinge on the far wall, leading to high heat transfer coefficients. Many researchers have examined the effects of synthetic jets in microchannels and minichannels with single-phase flows. The use of synthetic jets has been shown to augment local heat transfer coefficients by 2–3 times the value of steady flow conditions. In this investigation, local heat transfer coefficients and pressure loss in various operating regimes were experimentally measured. Experiments were conducted with a minichannel array containing embedded thermocouples to directly measure local wall temperatures. The experimental range extends from transitional to turbulent flows. Local wall temperature measurements indicate that increases of heat transfer coefficient of over 20% can occur directly below the synthetic jet with low exit qualities. In this study, the heat transfer augmentation by using synthetic jets was dictated by the momentum ratio of the synthetic jet to the bulk fluid flow. As local quality was increased, the heat transfer augmentation dropped from 23% to 10%. Surface tension variations had a large effect on the Nusselt number, while variations in inertial forces had a small effect on Nusselt number in this operating region.

Iterative Regularization

This article treats the local heat transfer for nucleate pool boiling around the cylinder using the inverse heat conduction analysis. The physical model considers a half section of a cylinder with unknown surface temperature and heat flux density. The iterative regularization and the conjugate gradient methods are used for solving the inverse analysis. The local Nusselt number profiles for nucleate pool boiling are presented and analyzed for different electric heat. The mean Nusselt number estimated by IHCP is closed with the measured values. The results of IHCP are compared to those of Cornewell and Houston (1994), Stephan and Abdelsalam (1980) and Memory et al. (1995). The influence of the error of the measured temperatures and the error in placement of the thermocouples are studied.

Porous Enclosure

A comprehensive numerical study on the natural convection in a hydrodynamically anisotropic as well as isotropic porous enclosure is presented, flow is induced by non uniform sinusoidal heating of the right wall of the enclosure. The principal directions of the permeability tensor has been taken oblique to the gravity vector. The spectral Element method has been adopted to solve numerically the governing differential equations by using the vorticity-stream-function approach. The results are presented in terms of stream function, temperature profile and Nusselt number. The result show that the maximum heat transfer takes place at y = 1.5 when N is odd.. Also, increasing media permeability, by changing K* = 1 to K* = 0.2, increases heat transfer rate at below and above right corner of the enclosure. Furthermore, for the all values of N, profiles of local Nusselt number (Nuy) in isotropic as well as anisotropic media are similar, but for even values of N differ slightly at N = 2.. In particular the present analysis shows that, different periodicity (N) of temperature boundary condition has the significant effect on the flow pattern and consequently on the local heat transfer phenomena.

Transfer Characteristics

When heat is released by forced convection from electronic modules in a narrow printed circuit board channel, complex flow phenomena—such as stagnation and acceleration on the front surface, separation and reattachment on the top surface, wake or cavity flow near the rear surface—affect the heat transfer characteristics. The purpose of this study is to investigate how these flow conditions influence the local heat transfer from electronic modules. Experiments are performed on a three-dimensional array of hexahedral elements as well as on a two-dimensional array of rectangular elements. Naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to measure three-dimensional local mass transfer, and the mass transfer data are converted to their counterparts of the heat transfer process using the analogy equation between heat and mass transfer. Module location and streamwise module spacing are varied, and the effect of vortex generators on heat transfer enhancement is also examined. Dramatic change of local heat transfer coefficients is found on each surface of the module, and three-dimensional modules have a little higher heat transfer value than two-dimensional modules because of bypass flow. Longitudinal vortices formed by vortex generator enhance the mixing of fluids and thereby heat transfer, and the rectangular wing type vortex generator is found to be more effective than the delta wing type vortex generator.

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.
