Transfer Mechanisms

Results are presented from flow-rig tests in which water from an automotive engine injector was sprayed on to a small heated surface in the presence of both steady and pulsative air flow. The injection was intermittent and synchronized with the pulsating air flow. The aim of the tests was to improve understanding of some of the basic heat and mass transfer mechanisms that occur in port-injected sparkignition engines where fuel is usually sprayed on to the back of the inlet valve. The main observations focused on the heat transfer to the film and the entrainment of the spray and film by the air stream.

Experimental Errors

Some of the previously reported heat transfer coefficients with evaporation are fairly large as compared with those of a dry body under similar hydrodynamic conditions. In order to clarify this curious enhancement of heat transfer, a method of error evaluation was developed and applied to correct the experimental errors in the recently reported results. An experimental study was also made on turbulent heat and mass transfer of air flowing over a water surface. The present and the previously reported experimental results revealed that the heat transfer coefficient with evaporation agrees with that of a dry body without evaporation, within experimental error, if the erroneous heat inputs into the liquid are properly corrected according to the proposed method.

Heat transfer describes the exchange of thermal energy, between physical systems depending on the temperature and pressure, by dissipating heat. The fundamental modes of heat transfer are conduction or diffusion, convection and radiation. Heat and mass transfer are kinetic processes that may occur and be studied separately or jointly. Studying them apart is simpler, but both processes are modeled by similar mathematical equation in the case of diffusion and convection. There are complex problems where heat and mass transfer processes are combined with chemical reactions, as in combustion. The resulting behavior of heat transport in microscale will be very different from macroscale heat transfer based on the averages taken over hundreds of thousands of grains (in space) and collision (in time). From the microscopic point of view, the process of heat transport is governed by phonon-electron interaction in metallic films and by phonon scattering in dielectric films, insulators and semi-conductors. For extremely heated surfaces by high energy laser pulse, it is very difficult to measure temperature of flux at the heated surface because of the unendurable capacity of the conventional sensors. Laser is the tool of choice when drill holes ranging in diameter from several millimeters to less than one micro-meter. Instead of having advanced melting and resolidification modeling process recently, the inherent uncertainties of the input parameters can directly cause unstable characteristics of the output results which means the parametric uncertainties may influence the characteristics of the phase change processes (melting and resolidification) which will affect the predictions of interfacial properties i.e., temperature, velocity and mainly the location of solid-liquid interface. All of those processes can be considered under high energy laser interaction with materials.

The traditional refrigeration method of internet data center (IDC) is mostly air refrigeration, which has undesired cooling effect and high power consumption. This study addresses this problem and proposes an evaporative air cooler (EAC) suitable for IDC. Given the high specific heat capacity of water, the evaporative condensing coil and spray device are added to the evaporative cooler to enhance the heat transfer effect. Heat and mass transfer mathematical models are established to analyze the heat transfer performance. The mathematical model is used to simulate the profile of the heat and mass transfer coefficient of the EAC with the amount of spray water and air flow. The results show that when the air flow changes from 10 to 20 kg/s, the air equivalent heat transfer coefficient increases by about 41%. When the air flow rate is 20 kg/s and the spray water volume is 0.00124 kg/(mꞏs), the total heat transfer coefficient is increased by about 308% compared with the case without spray water.

Mist Flow

Heat transfer of mist flow in a rib-roughened square duct was experimentally determined using infrared thermography. The mist flow was generated by introducing fine dispersed water droplets into the air stream. A constant heat flux was applied to the surface during the test and the surface temperature was kept below the boiling point. The heat transfer measurement was performed on a heated surface located inside a vertical square duct with a hydraulic diameter of 4cm. The air/water mist flow was carried upward by air flow from a blower placed at the bottom of the duct. The flow passed through a flow straightener and entered the heated region of the square duct. The Reynolds numbers of the carrier fluid were 7900, 16000 and 24000. The results showed that mist flow cooling achieved higher heat transfer rates compared to the air cooling. Thin liquid films formed on the heated surface by the mist flow and the evaporation from the droplets and liquid film contributed to a higher heat removal rate. The heat transfer enhancement on the smooth surface by the mist flow was 4 to 6 times higher compared to the air flow. Rib turbulators were typically applied in channel walls for heat transfer enhancement in gas turbine blades or heat exchangers. Ribs caused flow reattachment and promoted flow mixing. The higher Nusselt number induced by flow reattachment can be visualized using infrared thermography. For the ribbed case, the heat transfer contours were reported based the regions between ribs. Square brass ribs were used and the rib height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio was 0.05. The rib pitch-to-height ratios were 10 and 20 in the current study. For the mist flow in the ribbed duct, the intense flow mixing and secondary flow caused by the ribs blew away liquid films on the surface. The heat transfer enhancement near the reattachment region was mainly influenced by the droplet impingement on the surface. In the ribbed duct, the heat transfer enhancement from using the mist flow was 2.5 to 3.5 times higher compared to the air flow.

Film Boiling

Nanofluid using for intensification of heat transfer during boiling are analyzed. The using boiling nanofluids for cooling high-temperature surfaces allows significantly intensify heat transfer process by increasing the heat transfer coefficient of a nanofluid in comparison with a pure liquid. The properties of nanoparticles, their concentration in the liquid, the underheating of the liquid to the saturation temperature have significant effect on the rate of heat transfer during boiling of the nanofluid. Increasing critical heat flux during boiling of nanofluids is associated with the formation of deposition layer of nanoparticles on heated surface, which contributes changing in the microcharacteristics of heat exchange surface. An increase in the critical heat flux during boiling of nanofluids is associated with the formation of a layer of deposition of nanoparticles on the surface, which contributes to a change in the microcharacteristics of the heat transfer of the surface. Mathematical model and results of calculation of film boiling characteristics of nanofluid on vertical heated wall are presented. It is shown that the greatest influence on the processes of heat and mass transfer during film boiling of the nanofluid is exerted by wall overheating, the ratio of temperature and Brownian diffusion and the concentration of nanoparticles in the liquid. The mathematical model does not take into account the effect changing structure of the heated surface on heat transfer processes but it allows to evaluate the effect of various thermophysical parameters on intensity of deposition of nanoparticles on heated wall. The obtained results allow to evaluate the effect of nanofluid physical properties on heat and mass transfer at cooling of high-temperature surfaces. The using nanofluids as cooling liquids for heat transfer equipment in the regime of supercritical heat transfer promotes an increase in heat transfer and accelerates the cooling process of high-temperature surfaces. Because of low thermal conductivity of vapor in comparison with the thermal conductivity of the liquid, an increase in the concentration of nanoparticles in the vapor contributes to greater growth in heat transfer in the case of supercritical heat transfer.

The work is devoted to the study of heat and mass transfer in a liquid film flowing down on a heated surface under conditions of evaporation into a crossflow of a gas neutral with respect to the liquid. The work aimed to experimentally determine the average heat transfer coefficients from a heated surface to the film, heat transfer and mass transfer from the film to the gas flow and to establish their dependence on the input parameters of the heat and mass transfer process. To achieve this goal, an experimental setup was created, and a research technique was developed based on the proposed mathematical model of the heat and mass transfer process. The results of the study showed that the dependences of the average heat and mass transfer coefficients on the initial liquid flow rate are extreme with the minimum values of these coefficients at the liquid flow rate, which corresponds to the critical value of the Reynolds criterion Re l cr ≈ 500, which indicates a transition from the laminar falling films to turbulent mode under the considered conditions. The dependences of the heat and mass transfer coefficients on other process parameters for both modes of film falling are established. A generalization of the experimental data made it possible to obtain empirical equations for calculating these coefficients.
