The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Two-phase CFD calculations using commercial code Fluent were employed to calculate the air and droplet flows with and without mist in an impinging jet. The effects of phase changing of the water droplets, the mist injection rate, the heat flux of target and the geometrical parameters of the slot were studied to reveal the cooling effectiveness. The results show that the key enhancement mechanism of mist/air impinging jet is the effect of evaporation of the droplets. The wall temperature significantly decreased because of mist injection and the injection of 5% mist has a strengthen of cooling effectiveness with 89% enhancement. This enhancement would be reduced by higher heat flux of target wall. Concentration plays a major role in the cooling performance. Increasing the mist ratio makes the cooling strengthen significantly. A mist of 5% can provide a cooling enhancement of 32% at stagnation than the mist of 1%. The effect of the mist ratio on cooling declines gradually from the impingement area to the downstream area. A fit width and height ratio had a major impact on the cooling performance of mist/air impinging jet. For constant mist/air mass flow and inlet width b, when H/b increases, the heat transfer coefficient increases first and then decreases; for constant mist/air mass flow and impinging distance H, the heat transfer coefficient increases as H/b increases.

A new approach for steady-state heat transfer measurements is proposed. Temperature distributions are measured at the surface and a defined depth inside the wall to provide boundary conditions for a three-dimensional heat flux calculation. The practical application of the technique is demonstrated by employing a superposition method to measure heat transfer and film cooling effectiveness downstream of two different 0.75D deep narrow trench geometries and cylindrical holes. Compared to the cylindrical holes, both trench geometries lead to an augmentation of the heat transfer coefficient supposedly caused by the highly turbulent attached cooling film emanating from the trenches. Areas of high heat transfer are visible, where recirculation bubbles or large amounts of coolant are expected. Increasing the density ratio from 1.33 to 1.60 led to a slight reduction of the heat transfer coefficient and an increased cooling effectiveness. Both trenches provide a net heat flux reduction (NHFR) superior to that of cylindrical holes, especially at the highest momentum flux ratios.

Film cooling performance of a new shaped hole: waist-shaped slot hole is studied in this paper. Experimental measurement and numerical simulation are carried out to investigate the film cooling character and physics of this new shaped hole. And comparisons between the waist-shaped slot hole and two kinds of console holes are also performed. Both the cooling effectiveness distribution and the heat transfer coefficient distribution of the waist-shaped slot hole are similar with those of the console hole with large divergence angle because of the effect of the waist-shaped slot hole’s structure. The middle constriction structure of the waist-shaped slot hole and the coupled vortices make jets from the waist-shaped slot holes produce higher cooling effectiveness in the midspan region between adjacent holes. And also due to the effect of the middle constriction structure, the heat transfer coefficient of the waist-shaped slot hole is very high in the upstream midspan region. However, the heat transfer coefficient in the downstream midspan region is lower than that in the region near the hole centerline because of the effect of the coupled vortices. The waist-shaped slot holes provide the surface with very good thermal protection, especially in the upstream region. Although the console holes with small exit-entry area ratio provide better thermal protection than the waist-shaped slot holes due to small turbulence intensity, the flow resistance characteristic of the waist-shaped slot hole is much better.

Film Cooling Effectiveness

The effect of film cooling on a transonic squealer tip has been examined in a high speed linear cascade, which operates at engine-realistic Mach and Reynolds numbers. Tests have been performed on two uncooled tip geometries with differing pressure side rim edge radii, and a cooled tip matching one of the uncooled cases. The pressure sensitive paint technique has been used to measure adiabatic film cooling effectiveness on the blade tip at a range of tip gaps and coolant mass flow rates. Complementary tip heat transfer coefficients have been measured using transient infrared thermography, and the effects of the coolant film on the tip heat transfer and engine heat flux were examined. The uncooled data show that the tip heat transfer coefficient distribution is governed by the nature of flow reattachments and impingements. The squealer tip can be broken down into three regions, each exhibiting a distinct response to a change in the tip gap, depending on the local behavior of the overtip leakage flow. Complementary computational fluid dynamics (CFD) shows that the addition of casing motion causes no change in the flow over the pressure side rim. Injected coolant interacts with the overtip leakage flow, which can locally enhance the tip heat transfer coefficient. The film effectiveness is dependent on both the coolant mass flow rate and tip clearance. At increased coolant mass flow, areas of high film effectiveness on the pressure side rim coincide strongly with a net heat flux reduction and in the subsonic tip region with low heat transfer coefficient.

An experimental investigation has been performed to measure the cooling performance of the louver scheme using a two-dimensional cascade simulating the scaled vane of a high-pressure gas turbine. Two rows of an axially oriented louver scheme are distributed in a stagger arrangement over the pressure side. The effect of hole location on the cooling performance is investigated for each row individually, then the row interaction is investigated for both rows. The temperature distribution on the vane is mapped using a transient Thermochromic Liquid Crystal (TLC) technique to obtain the local distributions of the heat transfer coefficient and film cooling effectiveness. The performance of the louver scheme for each case is compared with that of two similar rows with a standard cylindrical exit at 0.9 density ratio. The exit Reynolds number based on the true chord is 1.5E5 and exit Mach number is 0.23. The local distributions of the effectiveness and the heat transfer coefficient are presented at four different blowing ratios ranging from 1 to 2. The louver scheme shows a superior cooling effectiveness than that of the cylindrical holes at all blowing ratios in terms of protection and lateral coverage. The row location highly affects the cooling performance for both the louver and cylindrical scheme due to the local pressure change and the variation of the surface curvature.

Abstract There are many factors that can affect the heat transfer coefficient (HTC) of supercritical water in forced and natural circulation. The correlation between the factors with the HTC under different circulation modes has an important influence on the reactor core design. By extracting the experimental data of supercritical water in forced circulation and natural circulation, the grey correlation model was used to analyze the relational degree between these factors with HTC. The results show that: Under the condition of forced circulation, there is a positive correlation between the inlet temperature, mass flow velocity, the thickness of the grid body with the HTC of supercritical water, and the order is: mass flow velocity > inlet temperature > the thickness of the grid body; there is a negative correlation between the pressure, heat flux with the heat transfer coefficient of supercritical water, and the order is: pressure > heat flux. Under the condition of natural circulation, there is a positively correlation between heating power, inlet temperature and circulation flow rate with HTC, and the order of magnitude is: circulation flow rate > heating power > inlet temperature; diameter and pressure are negatively correlated with heat transfer coefficient, and the order of magnitude is: pressure > diameter. In the two circulation modes, mass flow rate is an important factor affecting the heat transfer capacity of supercritical water, while the effect of heat flux on the heat transfer coefficient is contrary.

Film cooling method of hot section components in the gas turbine engines is under continuous optimization for the enhanced cooling performance. In the present study, film cooling performance for a row of different shaped holes like triangular, circular and extended triangular have been considered. The adiabatic film effectiveness and the convective heat transfer coefficients are found experimentally on a flat plate. All the three test models are having holes of 5 mm diameter drilled at 20 mm pitch and inclined at an angle of 22 degrees. At the immediate downstream of these models, a flat plate is attached for finding the effect of these hole configurations. This flat plate is made with the low conductivity substrate and the stainless sheet of 0.2 mm thick is pasted over it in the flow path. The test model along with the flat plate is placed to the side wall of the rectangular duct where the mainstream air is supplied. The setup is made in such a way that the coolant air passed through the holes will create a film over the flat plate downstream. Infra Red camera is used to capture the thermal image of the entire test plate. The flat plate is connected with six thermocouples to have the reference surface temperature to correct the IR thermal image data. K-type thermocouples are used to measure the coolant and mainstream air temperatures. In both the heat transfer coefficient and adiabatic film cooling effectiveness experiments the blowing ratio is varied by 0.5 to 2.0, by keeping the constant mainstream air velocity of 20 m/s at ambient temperature. In the heat transfer coefficient experiments, the flat plate is heated with the constant heat flux conditions. In the adiabatic film cooling experiments, the coolant air is maintained at the temperature of −50°C with the help of liquid nitrogen heat exchanger bath. Results are plotted by taking the adiabatic film cooling effectiveness and convective heat transfer coefficient values from the centerline of holes downstream along the flow direction. From the results, the triangular and extended triangular hole models shown higher heat transfer coefficient and adiabatic film cooling effectiveness than the circular hole model.

In order to continue increasing the efficiency of gas turbines, an important effort is made on the thermal management of the turbine stage. In particular, understanding and accurately estimating the thermal loads in a vane passage is of primary interest to engine designers looking to optimize the cooling requirements and ensure the integrity of the components. This paper focuses on the measurement of endwall heat transfer in a vane passage with a three-dimensional (3D) airfoil shape and cylindrical endwalls. It also presents a comparison with predictions performed using an in-house developed Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) solver featuring a specific treatment of the numerical smoothing using a flow adaptive scheme. The measurements have been performed in a steady state axial turbine facility on a novel platform developed for heat transfer measurements and integrated to the nozzle guide vane (NGV) row of the turbine. A quasi-isothermal boundary condition is used to obtain both the heat transfer coefficient and the adiabatic wall temperature within a single measurement day. The surface temperature is measured using infrared thermography through small view ports. The infrared camera is mounted on a robot arm with six degrees of freedom to provide high resolution surface temperature and a full coverage of the vane passage. The paper presents results from experiments with two different flow conditions obtained by varying the mass flow through the turbine: measurements at the design point (ReCax=7.2×105) and at a reduced mass flow rate (ReCax=5.2×105). The heat transfer quantities, namely the heat transfer coefficient and the adiabatic wall temperature, are derived from measurements at 14 different isothermal temperatures. The experimental data are supplemented with numerical predictions that are deduced from a set of adiabatic and diabatic simulations. In addition, the predicted flow field in the passage is used to highlight the link between the heat transfer patterns measured and the vortical structures present in the passage.

To investigate the effects of the inclined ribs on internal flow structure in film hole and the film cooling performance on outer surface, experimental and numerical studies are conducted on the effects of rib orientation angle on film cooling of compound cylindrical holes. Three coolant channel cases, including two ribbed cross-flow channels (135° and 45° angled ribs) and the plenum case, are studied under three blowing ratios (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0). 2D contours of film cooling effectiveness as well as heat transfer coefficient were measured by transient liquid crystal measurement technique (TLC). The steady RANS simulations with realizable k-ε turbulence model and enhanced wall treatment were performed. The results show that the spanwise width of film coverage is greatly influenced by the rib orientation angle. The spanwise width of the 45° rib case is obviously larger than that of the 135° rib case under lower blowing ratios. When the blowing ratio is 1.0, the area-averaged cooling effectiveness of the 135° rib case and the 45° rib case are higher than that of the plenum case by 38% and 107%, respectively. With the increase of blowing ratio, the film coverage difference between different rib orientation cases becomes smaller. The 45° rib case also produces higher heat transfer coefficient, which is higher than the 135° rib case by 3.4–8.7% within the studied blowing ratio range. Furthermore, the discharge coefficient of the 45° rib case is the lowest among the three cases. The helical motion of coolant flow is observed in the hole of 45° rib case. The jet divides into two parts after being blown out of the hole due to this motion, which induces strong velocity separation and loss. For the 135° rib case, the vortex in the upper half region of the secondary-flow channel rotates in the same direction with the hole inclination direction, which leads to the straight streamlines and thus results in lower loss and higher discharge coefficient.

The study focuses on the aggregation kinematics in the quadratic convective magneto-hydrodynamics of ethylene glycol-titania ([Formula: see text]) nanofluid flowing through an inclined flat plate. The modified Krieger-Dougherty and Maxwell-Bruggeman models are used for the effective viscosity and thermal conductivity to account for the aggregation aspect. The effects of an exponential space-dependent heat source and thermal radiation are incorporated. The impact of pertinent parameters on the heat transfer coefficient is explored by using the Response Surface Methodology and Sensitivity Analysis. The effects of several parameters on the skin friction and heat transfer coefficient at the plate are displayed via surface graphs. The velocity and thermal profiles are compared for two physical scenarios: flow over a vertical plate and flow over an inclined plate. The nonlinear problem is solved using the Runge–Kutta-based shooting technique. It was found that the velocity profile significantly decreased as the inclination of the plate increased on the other hand the temperature profile improved. The heat transfer coefficient decreased due to the increase in the Hartmann number. The exponential heat source has a decreasing effect on the heat flux and the angle of inclination is more sensitive to the heat transfer coefficient than other variables. Further, when radiation is incremented, the sensitivity of the heat flux toward the inclination angle augments at the rate 0.5094% and the sensitivity toward the exponential heat source augments at the rate 0.0925%. In addition, 41.1388% decrement in wall shear stress is observed when the plate inclination is incremented from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text].
