Combined Heat Transfer

This study examines the combined heat transfer by thermal conduction, natural convection and surface radiation in the porous char layer that is formed from the intumescent coating under fire. The results show that some factors, such as the Rayleigh number, conductivity ratio, emissivity, radiation–conduction number, void fraction and heating mode have a certain effect on the total heat transfer. In addition, the natural convection of the air in the cavity always inhibits surface radiation among the solid walls and thermal conduction, and the character of the total heat transfer is the competition result of the three heat transfer mechanisms.

Theoretical Results

A one-dimensional analysis of a compressible vapor flowing within the evaporator section of a heat pipe is presented. Comparisons between the theoretical results and existing heat pipe data show that the presence of gasdynamic choking can limit the heat transfer capacity of a heat pipe operating at sufficiently low vapor pressures.
