The temperature evolution of nanoparticle packings on a substrate under high laser power is investigated both experimentally and via numerical simulations. Numerical modeling of temperature distributions in copper nanoparticle packings on a glass substrate is performed and results are compared with experiment under 2.6 kW/cm2 laser power. A coupled electromagnetic-heat transfer model is implemented to understand the nanoparticle temperature distribution. Very good agreement between the coupled electromagnetic-heat transfer model and the experimental results is obtained by matching the interfacial thermal conductance, G, between the nanoparticles using the experimental result in the coupled electromagnetic-heat transfer model.

Primary Role

The temperature distribution and thermal efficiency of a molten salt cavity receiver are investigated by a nonuniform heat transfer model based on thermal resistance analysis. For the cavity receiver MSEE in Sandia National Laboratories, thermal efficiency in this experiment is about 87.5%, and the calculation value of 86.93–87.79% by a present nonuniform model fits very well with the experimental result. Different from the uniform heat transfer model, the receiver surface temperature in the nonuniform heat transfer model is remarkably higher than the backwall temperature. The incident radiation flux plays a primary role in thermal performance of cavity receiver, and thermal efficiency approaches to maximum under optimal incident radiation flux. In order to increase thermal efficiency, various methods are proposed and studied, including heat convection enhancement by an increase of flow velocity or the decrease of the tube diameter and number of tubes in the panel, and heat loss decline by a decrease of view factor, surface emissivity and insulation conductivity. According to calculation results by different modes of the nonuniform heat transfer model, the thermal efficiency of the cavity receiver is reduced by nonuniform heat transfer caused by variable fluid temperature or variable circumferential temperature, so thermal efficiency calculated by variable fluid temperature and variable circumferential temperature is lower than that calculated by average fluid temperature and bilateral uniform circumferential temperature for 0.86%.

Cup-cast method is a new method deals with semi-solid slurry preparation recently developed by the authors. In this method, suspension of globular solid particles in molten metal is prepared by controlling the nucleation and growth of solid-particles through the simplest and quickest techniques. In this method, heat transfer phenomenon plays an important role in governing the shape, size, and fraction of solid particles. In the current study, a heat transfer model was proposed and applied to Al-A356 alloy semi-solid slurry preparation. The heat transfer model was based on heat balance consideration between cup and slurry and it was in a good agreement with experimental results.

An understanding of the flow of heat in grain store structures, in particular, within the peripheral layer, is important from many industrial perspectives. To analyse the heat transfer within such regions a mathematical model known as the two-stage heat transfer model is proposed. This model makes a distinction between the air and grain within the grain bulk, and thus takes into consideration the fact that the rate of heat transfer through the grain is different to that through the interstitial air surrounding the grain. Such a model lends itself to a solution via Laplace transforms and approximate analytical results are obtained for small and large times. In addition, the Stehfest numerical algorithm is used for the inversions and very good agreement is obtained between the two approaches. The present model is compared to a previously developed double-diffusivity heat transfer model by the authors, and good agreement is obtained. At present, no experimental data is available to validate the model as it is very difficult to measure the air and grain temperatures separately, particularly in the peripheral layer. The proposed model provides insight into the potential difference existing between the air and grain temperatures.

Abstract Nanoparticle heating due to laser irradiation is of great interest in electronic, aerospace, and biomedical applications. This paper presents a coupled electromagnetic-heat transfer model to predict the temperature distribution of multilayer copper nanoparticle packings on a glass substrate. It is shown that heat transfer within the nanoparticle packing is dominated by the interfacial thermal conductance between particles when the interfacial thermal conductance constant, GIC, is greater than 20 MW/m2K, but that for lower GIC values, thermal conduction through the air around the nanoparticles can also play a role in the overall heat transfer within the nanoparticle system. The coupled model is used to simulate heat transfer in a copper nanoparticle packing used in a typical microscale selective laser sintering (μ-SLS) process with an experimentally measured particle size distribution and layer thickness. The simulations predict that the nanoparticles will reach a temperature of 730 ± 3 K for a laser irradiation of 2.6 kW/cm2 and 1304 ± 23 K for a laser irradiation of 6 kW/cm2. These results are in good agreement with the experimentally observed laser-induced sintering and melting thresholds for copper nanoparticle packing on glass substrates.

Heat transfer through hold wall sections was investigated to improve prediction of heat leakage through fish hold boundaries of steel fishing vessels in the range of 14 to 32 m (45 to 105 ft). A finite-difference heat-transfer model was developed and eight fish hold wall sections representative of a 14 m (45 ft) boat were tested using the "guarded hot box" technique (ASTM C 236-80). Good agreement was obtained between the predicted and tested results. By applying the model, design curves of wall sections representative of typical West Coast steel vessels are presented.

In this study, we study a heat transfer model, with the surface of the microbolometer device receiving radiation from blackbody constructed using a COMSOL Multiphysics simulator. We have proposed three kinds of L-type 2-leg and 4-leg with the pixel pitch of 35 μm based on vanadium oxide absorbent membrane sandwiched with top passivated and bottom Si3N4 supporting films, respectively. Under the blackbody radiation, the surface temperature changes and distributions of these samples are simulated and analyzed in detail. The trend of change of the temperature dependent resistance of the four kinds of bolometer devices using the proposed heat transfer model is consistent with the actual results of the change of resistance of 4 samples irradiated with 325 K blackbody located in the front distance of 5 cm. In this paper, ΔT indicates the averaged differences of the top temperature on the suspended membrane and the lowest temperature on the post of legs of the microbolometers. It is shown that ΔT ≈ 17 mK is larger in nominal 2-leg microbolometer device than that of 4-leg one and of 2-leg with 2 μm × 2 μm central square hole and two 7.5 μm × 2 μm slits in suspended films. Additionally, only ΔT ≈ 5 mK with 4-leg microbolometer device under the same radiated energy of 325 K blackbody results from the larger total thermal conductance.
