The development of new areas of research in the field of theoretical thermophysics requires reliable analytical solutions that could take into account the main aspects of physical parameters in the studied objects. One such analytical technique is symmetry groups. On the basis of symmetry groups the problem of heat transfer in gradient laminar flows is solved in the paper. For the first time, the symmetries of the energy equation for the boundary layer at an arbitrary changing velocity at marching direction are obtained. Examples of the use of group analysis methods for the study of heat transfer in the boundary layer of an incompressible fluid are demonstrated. The problems of heat transfer in the boundary layer on a heat-conducting wall with a constant temperature and on a heat-insulated wall are considered. Analytical relations for temperature and heat transfer coefficients distribution are obtained.

Using the integral form of the laminar boundary layer thermal energy equation, a method is developed which permits calculation of thermal boundary layer development under more general conditions than heretofore treated in the literature. The local Stanton number is expressed in terms of the thermal convection thickness which reflects the cumulative effects of variable free stream velocity, surface temperature, and injection rate on boundary layer development. The boundary layer calculation is combined with the wall heat transfer problem through a coolant heat balance which includes the effect of axial conduction in the wall. The highly coupled boundary layer and wall heat balance equations are solved simultaneously using relatively straightforward numerical integration techniques. Calculated results exhibit good agreement with existing analytical and experimental results. The present results indicate that nonisothermal wall and axial conduction effects significantly affect local heat transfer rates.

In the present study, the heat transfer characteristics on the suction and pressure sides of an outlet guide vane (OGV) are investigated by using liquid crystal thermography (LCT) method in a linear cascade. Because the OGV has a complex curved surface, it is necessary to calibrate the LCT by taking into account the effect of viewing angles of the camera. Based on the calibration results, heat transfer measurements of the OGV were conducted. Both on- and off-design conditions were tested, where the incidence angles of the OGV were 25 degrees and −25 degrees, respectively. The Reynolds numbers, based on the axial flow velocity and the chord length, were 300,000 and 450,000. In addition, heat transfer on suction side of the OGV with +40 degrees incidence angle was measured. The results indicate that the Reynolds number and incidence angle have considerable influences upon the heat transfer on both pressure and suction surfaces. For on-design conditions, laminar-turbulent boundary layer transitions are on both sides, but no flow separation occurs; on the contrary, for off-design conditions, the position of laminar-turbulent boundary layer transition is significantly displaced downstream on the suction surface, and a separation occurs from the leading edge on the pressure surface. As expected, larger Reynolds number gives higher heat transfer coefficients on both sides of the OGV.

A detailed experimental study has been conducted on the wake-induced unsteady flow and heat transfer in a linear turbine cascade. The unsteady wakes with passing frequencies in the range zero to 240 Hz were generated by moving cylinders on a squirrel cage device. The velocity fields in the blade-to-blade flow and in the boundary layers were measured with hot-wire anemometers, the surface pressures with a pressure transducer and the heat transfer coefficients with a glue-on hot film. The results were obtained in ensemble-averaged form so that periodic unsteady processes can be studied. Of particular interest was the transition of the boundary layer. The boundary layer remained laminar on the pressure side in all cases and in the case without wakes also on the suction side. On the latter, the wakes generated by the moving cylinders caused transition, and the beginning of transition moves forward as the cylinder-passing frequency increases. Unlike in the flat-plate study of Liu and Rodi (1991a) the instantaneous boundary layer state does not respond to the passing wakes and therefore does not vary with time. The heat transfer increases under increasing cylinder-passing frequency even in the regions with laminar boundary layers due to the increased background turbulence.

The boundary-layer equations for laminar film condensation are solved for (a) a single horizontal tube, and (b) a vertical bank of horizontal tubes. For the single-tube case, the inertia effects are included and the vapor is assumed to be stationary outside the vapor boundary layer. Velocity and temperature profiles are obtained for the case μvρv/μρ ≪ 1 and similarity is found to exist exactly near the top stagnation point, and approximately for the most part of the tube. Heat-transfer results computed with these similar profiles are presented and discussed. For the multiple-tube case, the analysis includes the effect of condensation between tubes, which is shown to be partly responsible for the high observed heat-transfer rate for vertical tube banks. The inertia effects are neglected due to the insufficiency of boundary-layer theory in this case. Heat-transfer coefficients are presented and compared with experiments. The theoretical results for both cases are also presented in approximate formulas for ease of application.

Purpose This paper aims to examine the effect of Dufour and Soret diffusions on Al2O3-water nanofluid flow over a moving thin needle by using the Tiwari and Das model. Design/methodology/approach The governing equations are reduced to the similarity equations using similarity transformations. The resulting equations are programmed in Matlab software through the bvp4c solver to obtain their solutions. The features of the skin friction, heat transfer and mass transfer coefficients, as well as the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles for different values of the physical parameters, are analysed and discussed. Findings The non-uniqueness of the solutions is observed for a certain range of the physical parameters. The authors also notice that the bifurcation of the solutions occurs in which the needle moves toward the origin (λ < 0). It is discovered that the first branch solutions of the skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer coefficients increase, but the mass transfer coefficient decreases in the presence of nanoparticle. Additionally, the simultaneous effect of Dufour and Soret diffusions tends to enhance the heat transfer coefficient; however, dual behaviours are observed for the mass transfer coefficient. Further analysis shows that between the two solutions, only one of them is stable and thus physically reliable in the long run. Originality/value The problem of Al2O3-water nanofluid flow over a moving thin needle with Dufour and Soret effects are the important originality of the present study. Besides, the temporal stability of the dual solutions is examined for time.

A four vane subsonic cascade was used to investigate the influence of film injection on vane heat transfer distributions in the presence of high turbulence. The influence of high turbulence on vane film cooling effectiveness and boundary layer development was also examined in part II of this paper. A high level, large scale inlet turbulence was generated for this study with a mock combustor (12 %) and was used to contrast results with a low level (1 %) of inlet turbulence. The three geometries chosen to study in this investigation were one row and two staggered rows of downstream cooling on both the suction and pressure surfaces in addition to a showerhead array. Film cooling was found to have only a moderate influence on the heat transfer coefficients downstream from arrays on the suction surface where the boundary layer was turbulent. However, film cooling was found to have a substantial influence on heat transfer downstream from arrays in laminar regions of the vane such as the pressure surface, the stagnation region, and the near suction surface. Generally, heat transfer augmentation was found to scale on velocity ratio. In relative terms, the augmentation in the laminar regions for the low turbulence case was found to be higher than the augmentation for the high turbulence case. The absolute levels of heat transfer were always found to be the highest for the high turbulence case.

The present study compares measured and computed heat transfer coefficients for high-speed boundary layer nozzle flows under engine Reynolds number conditions (U∞=230 ÷ 880 m/s, Re* = 0.37 ÷ 1.07 × 106). Experimental data have been obtained by heat transfer measurements in a two-dimensional, nonsymmetric, convergent–divergent nozzle. The nozzle wall is convectively cooled using water passages. The coolant heat transfer data and nozzle surface temperatures are used as boundary conditions for a three-dimensional finite-element code, which is employed to calculate the temperature distribution inside the nozzle wall. Heat transfer coefficients along the hot gas nozzle wall are derived from the temperature gradients normal to the surface. The results are compared with numerical heat transfer predictions using the low-Reynolds-number k–ε turbulence model by Lam and Bremhorst. Influence of compressibility in the transport equations for the turbulence properties is taken into account by using the local averaged density. The results confirm that this simplification leads to good results for transonic and low supersonic flows.

Convective heat transfer in the cavity between two corotating disks is of great importance for turbomachinery applications. The complex three dimensional and unsteady flow structures induced by the Coriolis forces inside the cavity, and therefore the resulting heat transfer, are challenging to be measured in an experiment or predicted by simulation. In this paper a simplified cavity geometry, characterized experimentally by Long at al., has been chosen. The results obtained with a Very Large Eddy Simulation using Lattice-Boltzmann Method for two operating point with different rotation speeds are compared to the experimental heat transfer coefficients at the wall. The simulation results show the characteristic flow structures and behavior induced by the different regimes. A sensitivity analysis of the results is presented, both for numerical parameters such as grid resolution and for physical parameters, namely the throughflow velocity profile and shroud temperature.

AbstractThis paper studies the steady flow and heat transfer of Bingham plastic fluid over a rotating disk of finite radius with variable thickness radially in boundary layer. The boundary layer flow is caused by the rotating disk when the extra stress is greater than the yield stress of the Bingham fluid. The analyses of the velocity and temperature field related to the variable thickness disk have not been investigated in current literatures. The governing equations are first simplified into ordinary differential equations owing to the generalized von Kármán transformation for seeking solutions easily. Then semi-similarity approximate analytical solutions are obtained by using the homotopy analysis method for different physical parameters. It is found that the Bingham number clearly influences the velocity field distribution, and the skin friction coefficientCfris nonlinear growth with respect to the shape parameterm. Additionally, the effects of the involved parameters (i.e. shape parameterm, variable thickness parameterβ, Reynolds number Rev, and Prandtl number Pr) on velocity and temperature distribution are investigated and analyzed in detail.

The accurate prediction of heat transfer coefficients on cooled gas turbine blades requires consideration of various influence parameters. The present study continues previous work with special efforts to determine the separate effects of each of several parameters important in turbine flow. Heat transfer and boundary layer measurements were performed along a cooled flat plate with various freestream turbulence levels (Tu = 1.6−11 percent), pressure gradients (k = 0−6 × 10−6), and cooling intensities (Tw/T∞ = 1.0−0.53). Whereas the majority of previously available results were obtained from adiabatic or only slightly heated surfaces, the present study is directed mainly toward application on highly cooled surfaces as found in gas turbine engines.
