Представлены результаты численного моделирования конвективного теплообмена электропроводящей жидкости между концентрическими сферами при подводе тепла к внутренней сфере. Исследовано влияние числа Грасгофа и джоулевой диссипации на структуру течения жидкости, поля температуры, магнитной индукции и распределение локальных чисел Нуссельта. Получено уравнение подобия теплообмена, когда ускорение свободного падения направлено к центру сферического слоя. The Boussinesq approximation is used for modelling a large class of problems of convective heat transfer in spherical concentric layers in which the gravity vector is directed vertically downwards. But for problems of geophysics and astrophysics there is a fundamental difference, the gravity vector is directed along the radius to the center of the spherical layer. Therefore, the study of convective heat transfer in spherical layers, when the vector of gravitational acceleration is directed along the radius to the center of the spherical layer, is of independent interest. In this paper, the influence of the Grashof number, the Joule dissipation heat on the fluid flow structure, temperature field, magnetic induction, and the distribution of Nusselt numbers when heat is applied from below are studied. To solve the problem, the finite element method is used. In a dimensionless formulation, the problem is solved taking into account both the heat of the Joule dissipation, magnetic, inertial, viscous and lifting forces in a spherical coordinate system and the symmetry in longitude. The stationary fields of temperature, stream functions, vortex strength, radial and meridional components of magnetic induction and the distribution of local Nusselt numbers of electro conductive liquid in a concentric spherical layer for different Grashof numbers with and without accounting for the heat of Joule dissipation are obtained when heat is applied to the inner sphere. Two critical values of the Grashof number are numerically determined. The equation of heat exchange similarity is obtained, when the acceleration of gravity is directed to the center of the spherical layer. The mathematical model and the presented results may be useful for the study of convective heat exchange of electrically conducting fluid in space technologies and in the geophysical and astrophysical problems.

In this paper the heat transfer and flow in minichannels was investigated by using CFD methods. The numerical simulation results show that the equivalent diameter has little influence on resistance coefficient in the laminar region. In the turbulent flow region, the resistance coefficient decreases with the increasing of the equivalent diameter. In all computation region, the friction factors increases with increasing of the aspect ratio, and the friction factors decreases obviously with increasing of Reynolds number. The numerical simulation results show that the equivalent diameter has little influence on heat transfer Nusselt number in laminar flow region. In turbulent region, the Nusselt numbers are larger than those in macro channels. The Nusselt numbers increase with decreasing of equivalent diameter and the aspect ratio for a given Reynolds number.

The increasing power dissipation and decreasing dimensions of microelectronic devices have emphasized the demand for extremely efficient compact cooling technology. Microchannel heat sinks are of particular interest due to high rates of heat transfer, which have become known as one of the effective cooling technologies. In the present work, numerical simulation of incompressible flow in two dimensional microchannels by implementing nonuniform electrokinetic forces is performed using finite volume method. The velocity field and the heat transfer rate are influenced by the wall potential variations through the microchannel. Nondimensional parameters of heat transfer and fluid flows, Debay Huckel length, microchannel size and wall charge potential distribution, have major roles in this investigation. For fixed values of Reynolds number and microchannel size, the patterns of wall potentials are optimized to enhance the heat transfer rate. Velocity profiles are computed and temperature distribution and Nusselt number are obtained for uniform wall heat flux boundary condition. Average and local Nusselt numbers are illustrated for different wall potential configurations and Reynolds number. Velocity vectors and pressure drop are presented for different zeta potentials and Reynolds numbers. Finally, results of nonuniform electrical force are compared to uniform ones.

Experiments are performed to determine the local heat transfer performance in a rotating serpentine passage with rib-roughened surfaces. The ribs are placed on the trailing and leading walls in a corresponding posited arrangement with an angle of attack of 90 deg. The rib height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio, e/Dh, is 0.0787 and the rib pitch-to-height ratio, s/e, is 11. The throughflow Reynolds number is varied, typically at 23,000, 47,000, and 70,000 in the passage both at rest and in rotation. In the rotation cases, the rotation number is varied from 0.023 to 0.0594. Results for the rib-roughened serpentine passages are compared with those of smooth ones in the literature. Comparison is also made on results for the rib-roughened passages between the stationary and rotating cases. It is disclosed that a significant enhancement is achieved in the heat transfer in both the stationary and rotating cases resulting from an installation of the ribs. Both the rotation and Rayleigh numbers play important roles in the heat transfer performance on both the trailing and leading walls. Although the Reynolds number strongly influences the Nusselt numbers in the rib-roughened passage of both the stationary and rotating cases, Nuo and Nu, respectively, it has little effect on their ratio Nu/Nuo.

Local flow behavior and heat transfer results are presented from two swirl chambers, which model passages used to cool the leading edges of turbine blades in gas turbine engines. Flow results are obtained in an isothermal swirl chamber. Surface Nusselt number distributions are measured in a second swirl chamber (with a constant wall heat flux boundary condition) using infrared thermography in conjunction with thermocouples, energy balances, and in situ calibration procedures. In both cases, Reynolds numbers Re based on inlet duct characteristics range from 6000 to about 20,000. Bulk helical flow is produced in each chamber by two inlets, which are tangent to the swirl chamber circumference. Important changes to local and globally averaged surface Nusselt numbers, instantaneous flow structure from flow visualizations, and distributions of static pressure, total pressure, and circumferential velocity are observed throughout the swirl chambers as the Reynolds number increases. Of particular importance are increases of local surface Nusselt numbers (as well as ones globally averaged over the entire swirl chamber surface) with increasing Reynolds number. These are tied to increased advection, as well as important changes to vortex characteristics near the concave surfaces of the swirl chambers. Higher Re also give larger axial components of velocity, and increased turning of the flow from each inlet, which gives Go¨rtler vortex pair trajectories greater skewness as they are advected downstream of each inlet.

Abstract 3-D numerical simulations are performed to investigate liquid sodium (Na) flow and the heat transfer within miniature heat sinks with different geometries and hydraulic diameters of less than 5 mm. Two different straight small-scale heat sinks with rectangular and triangular cross-sections are studied in the laminar flow with the Reynolds number up to 1900. The local and average Nusselt numbers are obtained and compared against eachother. At the same surface area to volume ratio, rectangular minichannel heat sink leads to almost 280% higher convective heat transfer rate in comparison with triangular heat sink. It is observed that the difference between thermal efficiencies of rectangular and triangular minichannel heat sinks was independent of flow Reynolds number.

Abstract The aeroengine turbine cavity with pre-swirl structure makes the turbine component obtain better cooling effect, but the complex design of inlet and outlet makes it difficult to determine the heat transfer reference temperature of turbine disk. For the pre-swirl structure with two air intakes, the driving temperature difference of heat transfer between disk and cooling air cannot be determined either in theory or in test, which is usually called three-temperature problem. In this paper, the three-temperature problem of a rotating cavity with two cross inlets are studied by means of experiment and numerical simulation. By substituting the adiabatic wall temperature for the inlet temperature and summarizing its variation law, the problem of selecting the reference temperature of the multi-inlet cavity can be solved. The results show that the distribution of the adiabatic wall temperature is divided into the high jet area and the low inflow area, which are mainly affected by the turbulence parameters λT, the rotating Reynolds number Reω, the high inlet temperature Tf,H* and the low radius inlet temperature Tf,L* of the inflow, while the partition position rd can be considered only related to the turbulence parameters λT and the rotating Reynolds number Reω of the inflow. In this paper, based on the analysis of the numerical simulation results, the calculation formulas of the partition position rd and the adiabatic wall temperature distribution are obtained. The results show that the method of experiment combined with adiabatic wall temperature zone simulation can effectively solve the three-temperature problem of rotating cavity.

Local flow behavior and heat transfer results are presented from two swirl chambers, which model passages used to cool the leading edges of turbine blades in gas turbine engines. Flow results are obtained in an isothermal swirl chamber. Surface Nusselt number distributions are measured in a second swirl chamber (with a constant wall beat flux boundary condition) using infrared thermography, in conjunction with thermocouples, energy balances, and in situ calibration procedures. In both cases, Reynolds numbers Re based on inlet duct characteristics range from 6000 to about 20000. Bulk helical flow is produced in each chamber by two inlets which ore tangent to the swirl chamber circumference. Important changes to local and globally-averaged surface Nusselt numbers, instantaneous flow structure from flow visualizations, and distributions of static pressure, total pressure, and circumferential velocity are observed throughout the swirl chambers as the Reynolds number increases. Of particular importance are increases of local surface Nusselt numbers (as well as ones globally-averaged over the entire swirl chamber surface) with increasing Reynolds number. These are tiad to increased advection, as well as important changes to vortex characteristics near the concave surfaces of the swirl chambers. Higher Re also give larger axial components of velocity, and increased turning of the flow from each inlet, which gives Görtler vnrtex pair trajectories greater skewness as they are advected downstream of each inlet.
