In light of the difficulty including the complicacy of heat transfer process with hot natural gas injected in gas lift annulus, regular temperature prediction methods are commonly used to consider the tubing fluid temperature for the heat transfer from tubing to annulus, actually the tubing fluid will not be the external heat transfer but it will be heated by annulus when the gas temperature in annulus is higher than the tubing fluid temperature, as well as especially the prediction of tubing wellhead temperature in terms of fluid temperature distribution traits in annulus and tubing, regular temperature prediction methods manifest limitation due to their applicability. Based on the fairly comprehensive tubing fluid temperature distribution prediction model with consideration of Thomson effect and such factors as kinetic energy, annular convection heat transfer and phase change etc. developed by the predecessors, and according to the basic principle of conservation of energy and heat transfer, the actual heat transfer process with hot natural gas injected in gas lift annulus was considered as a plus in this paper. The models for actual heat transfer and tubing fluid modified temperature prediction were established and eventually, the models were verified via multiple field tests. The reliability, capable of satisfying the requirements of engineering precision, in terms of temperature distribution of model prediction was proved.

This paper analyses the mixed convection process in a fanless evaporator of an air heat pump. The text of the paper shows the authors’ experimental studies results of the temperature distribution and the local values of heat transfer coefficients on the outer surface of vertical tubes with longitudinal fins for the case of mixed convection and fins of a specific shape of their cross-section (prismatic, wavy fins). The experimental studies include the air velocities wa=2,3 m/s and the temperature differences between air and the refrigerant inside the heat exchanger tubes which is ΔT=24-40K. The results obtained were used for verification of CFD modeling of the heat transfer process for the discussed case of heat transfer and the geometry of the finned surface. The numerical analysis was performed for: the temperature distribution along the fin height, the tube perimeter and height, the distribution of local heat transfer coefficients on the finned tube perimeter and along its height. The simulated calculations were used to verify the method of determination of fin efficiency.

Abstract. The paper presents some theoretical and experimental data regarding the directional solidification, revealing the main factors (especially those which are related to the heat transfer process) which have influence on the crystals size and morphology. The crystalline structure of alloys is determined by three important factors: chemical composition, thermal conditions, and characteristics of germination and growth from liquid of solid nuclei. The solidification structure can be influenced by acting on the mould properties or directly on the cast material, both of these actions being based upon the change of temperature distribution in the alloy-mould system. Experimental data demonstrated the major influence of the thermal regime on the crystallization-solidification process, on the transcrystallization zone and they pointed out the limits to direct the crystals formation (size and shape) by changing the cooling regime.

An optimal performance analysis of a parabolic-trough direct-steam-generation solar-driven Rankine cycle power plant at maximum power (MP) and under maximum power density (MPD) conditions is performed numerically to investigate the effects of heat loss from the heat source and working fluid. In this study, the ideal Rankine cycle of the solar-driven power plant is modified into an equivalent Carnot-like cycle with a finite-rate heat transfer. The main assumptions of this study include that: (a) the parabolic collector is the thermal reservoir at a high temperature, (b) the heat transfer process between the collector and the working fluid is through either radiation and convection simultaneously or radiation only, and (c) the heat transfer process from the working fluid to the low-temperature thermal reservoir is convection dominated. Comprehensive discussions on the effect of heat loss during the heat transfer process from the hot thermal reservoir to the working fluid in the parabolic-trough solar collector are provided. The major results of this study can be summarized as follows: (a) the working fluid temperature at the hot-side heat exchanger decreases remarkably whereas the working fluid temperature at the cold-side heat exchanger does not show any significant change with increasing heat loss, (b) the MP, MPD, and thermal efficiencies decrease with increasing heat loss, and (c) the effect of heat loss on the decrease of thermal efficiency increases when convection is the dominant heat transfer mode at the hot-side heat exchanger.

The objective of this research was to develop methods for improved the uniformity of temperature distribution within plasma surface alloying furnace by simulating the heat transfer process and numerical calculation. Results show that the structure of charging basket, hanging auxiliary cathode plates in both sides of charging basket and blackness of material influence strongly temperature distribution within the plasma surface alloying furnace. Discharge intensity of the center zone can be weakened through increasing the distance between backs both column blades in center of the furnace, which decreased the consumption of discharge power in center, depressed temperature of the center zone of the furnace. Intensity of discharge in fringe of the charging basket can be reinforced and that of discharge in center can be weakened when auxiliary cathode plates were hanged to outer flank of the charging basket, which increased boundary temperature of the system, at the same time the auxiliary cathode plate plays a heat preservation role. Decreasing the blackness of outside material of charging basket may decrease heat dissipating capacity of outside, decrease temperature difference of outside and center of the furnace and improve the uniform of temperature distribution in the furnace.

This paper presents the adsorption isotherm experiment of Methane and Maxsorb III activated carbon that was conducted and analyzed at temperatures from 5 to 55 °C and pressures up to 2.2 MPa in a volumetric apparatus. It is a complementary to the previous efforts by ways of analyzing the importance between charging and discharging rate, temperature increase and reduce of the bed, the heat transfer process, and the cylinder cooling and heating requirements during the charging and discharging of adsorbed natural gas.

We present a novel indicator for the effectiveness of longitudinal, convecting-radiating fins to dissipate heat. Starting from an analysis of the properties of the entropy rate of the steady state, we show how it is possible to assess the efficiency of such devices by looking at the amount of entropy produced in the heat transfer process. Our study concerns both purely convective fins and convection-radiant fins and takes advantage of explicit expressions for the distribution of heat along the fin. It is shown that, in a suitable limit, the standard definition of efficiency and the entropic definition coincide. The role of the fluid temperature is explicit in the new definition and in the purely convective case. An application to an aluminium fin is given. Analytical and numerical results are discussed.
