High Heat Transfer

Impingement cooling offers very high heat transfer coefficients. Flow field, involved in impingement cooling is dominated by stagnation zone, transition zone and developing zone. Understanding of complex flow phenomenon and its effects on heat transfer characteristics is useful for efficient designing of impingement channels. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has emerged as a powerful tool for the analysis of flow and heat transfer systems. Honeywell has been investigating the use of CFD to determine the characteristics of various complex turbine blade cooling heat transfer augmentation methods such as impingement. The objective of this study is to develop CFD methodology which is suitable for computational investigation of flow and heat transfer analysis of impingement cooling through validation. Single row of circular jets impinging on concave (curved) surface has been considered for this study. The validation was accomplished with the test results of Bunker and Metzger [10] and with the correlations of Chupp et al. [7]. The parameters which are varied in this study include jet Reynolds number (Re2B = 6750–10200), target plate distance to jet diameter ratio (Z/d = 3 and 4), and target surface sharpness (i.e. radius ratio, r* = 0.2, 0.4 and 1) the simulations are performed under steady state conditions. Predicted results are compared for local endwall heat transfer results along the curve length of the mid span target wall. Flow field results obtained at different locations are presented to understand the heat transfer behavior.

We present here the heat-transfer and fluid flow analysis of an acoustically levitated flattened disk-shaped liquid drop. The interest in this work arises from the noncontact measurement of the thermophysical properties of liquids. Such techniques have application to liquids in the undercooled state, i.e., the situation when a liquid stays in a fluidic state even when the temperature falls below the normal freezing point. This can happen when, for example, a liquid sample is held in a levitated state. Since such states are easily disrupted by measurement probes, noncontact methods are needed. We have employed a technique involving the use of acoustically levitated samples of the liquid. A thermal stimulus in the form of laser heating causes thermocapillary motion with flow characteristics depending on the thermophysical properties of the liquid. In a gravity field, buoyancy is disruptive to this thermocapillary flow, masking it with the dominant natural convection. As one approach to minimizing the effects of buoyancy, the drop was flattened (by intense acoustic pressure) in the form of a horizontal disk, about 0.5mm thick. As a result, with very little gravitational potential, and with most of the buoyant flow suppressed, thermocapillary flow remained the dominant form of fluid motion within the drop. This flow field is visualizable and subsequent analysis for the inverse problem of the thermal property can be conducted. This calls for numerical calculations involving a heat-transfer model for the flattened drop. With the presence of an acoustic field, the heat-transfer analysis requires information about the corresponding Biot number. In the presence of a high-frequency acoustic field, the steady streaming originates in a thin shear-wave layer, known as the Stokes layer, at a surface of the drop. The streaming develops into the main fluid, and is referred to as the outer streaming. Since the Stokes layer is asymptotically thin in comparison to the length scale of the problem, the outer streaming can be formally described by an effective slip velocity at the boundary. The presence of the thin Stokes layer, and the slip condition at the interface, changes the character of the heat-transfer mechanism, which is inherently different from the traditional boundary layer. The current analysis consists of a detailed semianalytical calculation of the flow field and the heat-transfer characteristics of a levitated drop in the presence of an acoustic field.

Grid Independence

This paper describes the numerical simulation of the flow and heat transfer around a ventilated brake disc. The aim of this investigation is to provide more insight on ventilated brake disc flow phenomena with a view to improve heat dissipation. Analysis of brake disc has been carried out using FLUENT (CFD code based on the Finite Volume Method). Numerical predictions of the flow and heat transfer are compared with available experimental data in the literature [2]. In the present work validation of numerical results are discussed in two parts. In the first part, the optimum grid was found from the grid independence test and in the second part the effect of turbulence models on flow field development was studied. Three rotors have been considered with each of 36, 40 and 45 number of vanes. Each rotor of two flow passages has been considered for the analysis. An isothermal analysis has been carried out to analyse the heat transfer. From the grid independence test it was found that the grid with 300,000 cells is seems to be the appropriate. SST k-ω turbulence model was able to predict the flow field with an accuracy of 3% and 1% in predicting tangential velocity and radial velocity respectively. From the isothermal rotor analysis it is found that the geometry having 45 vanes dissipates 7.7% and 5% more heat compared to geometries having number of vanes 36 and 40 respectively.
