Several models for calculating the heat transfer coefficient of wheel rims of large capacity steam turbines are presented. Taking a certain 600MW supercritical turbine rotor as an example, the heat transfer coefficient of wheel rim under cold start-up are analyzed and calculated, according to the and comparison, and the quantitative calculation results are given The results show that the heat transfer coefficient of rotor rims obtained by Sarkar method is close to the heat transfer coefficient obtained by a research institute based on a rib heat transfer model. In finite element analyses, the calculation results by mentioned method could provide the heat transfer boundary condition of temperature and thermal stress field calculations of supercritical and ultra-supercritical steam turbine rotors.

A combustion and heat transfer model in oxy-fired CFBB was set. Particle diameter, voidage of the bed ,etc, was analyzed with 30%, 50%, and 70% oxygen. Take a 300MW CFBB for example, the heat transfer characteristics in furnace were numerical simulated. In the sparse zone, heat transfer coefficient is proportional to oxygen concentration at the same voidage of the bed; under the same operation condition, the heat transfer coefficient in CFB increases with the voidage of the bed at first, then it decreases. It was found the heat transfer capability decrease due to the higher concentration of oxygen. It is necessary to set an external heat exchanger to keep a normal combustion

According to the operation conditions of time unlimited passive containment heat removal system (TUPAC), a separate effect experiment facility was established to investigate the heat transfer performance of steam condensation in presence of non-condensable gas. The effect of wall subcooling temperature, total pressure and mass fraction of the air on heat transfer process was analyzed. The heat transfer model was also developed. The results showed that the heat transfer coefficient decreased with the rising of subcooling temperature, the decreasing of the total pressure and air mass fraction. It was revealed that Dehbi’s correlation predicted the heat transfer coefficient conservatively, especially in the low pressure and low temperature region. The novel correlation was fitted by the data obtained in the following range: 0.20~0.45 MPa in pressure, 20% ~ 80% in mass fraction, 15°C ~ 45°C in temperature. The discrepancy of the correlation and experiment data was with ±20%.

The heat transfer coefficient between the alloys and cooling water is affected by a lot of factors and hard to measure, a new method was investigated with a self-designed system ultilizing SP-15 high-frequency inductive heating unit. Based on measured temperature curves and Fourier heat transfer model, quantitative correlation between heat transfer coefficient and temperature was obtained by inverse algorithm method of iterative simulation and automatic optimization. The results showed that in submerged water-cooling process, the heat transfer coefficient reached to a peak value at the beginning and then decreased with increasing temperature. A decrease of cooling water temperature increased the peak value of the heat transfer coefficient, but did not change temperature range of the peak value from 200°C to 225°C . The heat transfer coefficient was mainly dependent of interfacial temperature between the Al-Cu alloys and the cooling water.The temperatures range from 200°C to 225°C gave the highest heat flux transfer.

A heat transfer model was built to predict the temperature evolution of semi-solid aluminum billets produced with the SEED process. An inverse technique was used to characterize the heat transfer coefficient at the interface between the crucible and the semi-solid billet. The effect of several process parameters on the heat transfer coefficient was investigated with a design of experiments and the coefficient was inserted in a computer model. Numerical simulations were carried out and validated with experimental results.

Many of the pulp mill biorefinery concepts recently presented include removal of lignin from black liquor. In this work, the aim was to study how the change in liquor chemistry affected the evaporation of kraft black liquor when lignin was removed using the LignoBoost process. Lignin was removed from a softwood kraft black liquor and four different black liquors were studied: one reference black liquor (with no lignin extracted); two ligninlean black liquors with a lignin removal rate of 5.5% and 21%, respectively; and one liquor with maximum lignin removal of 60%. Evaporation tests were carried out at the research evaporator in Chalmers University of Technology. Studied parameters were liquor viscosity, boiling point rise, heat transfer coefficient, scaling propensity, changes in liquor chemical composition, and tube incrustation. It was found that the solubility limit for incrustation changed towards lower dry solids for the lignin-lean black liquors due to an increased salt content. The scaling obtained on the tubes was easily cleaned with thin liquor at 105°C. It was also shown that the liquor viscosity decreased exponentially with increased lignin outtake and hence, the heat transfer coefficient increased with increased lignin outtake. Long term tests, operated about 6 percentage dry solids units above the solubility limit for incrustation for all liquors, showed that the heat transfer coefficient increased from 650 W/m2K for the reference liquor to 1500 W/m2K for the liquor with highest lignin separation degree, 60%.

AbstractInvestigations of flow boiling in highly viscous fluids show that heat transfer mechanisms in such fluids are different from those in fluids of low viscosity like refrigerants or water. To gain a better understanding, a modified standard apparatus was developed; it was specifically designed for fluids of high viscosity up to 1000 Pa∙s and enables heat transfer measurements with a single horizontal test tube over a wide range of heat fluxes. Here, we present measurements of the heat transfer coefficient at pool boiling conditions in highly viscous binary mixtures of three different polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) and n-pentane, which is the volatile component in the mixture. Systematic measurements were carried out to investigate pool boiling in mixtures with a focus on the temperature, the viscosity of the non-volatile component and the fraction of the volatile component on the heat transfer coefficient. Furthermore, copper test tubes with polished and sanded surfaces were used to evaluate the influence of the surface structure on the heat transfer coefficient. The results show that viscosity and composition of the mixture have the strongest effect on the heat transfer coefficient in highly viscous mixtures, whereby the viscosity of the mixture depends on the base viscosity of the used PDMS, on the concentration of n-pentane in the mixture, and on the temperature. For nucleate boiling, the influence of the surface structure of the test tube is less pronounced than observed in boiling experiments with pure fluids of low viscosity, but the relative enhancement of the heat transfer coefficient is still significant. In particular for mixtures with high concentrations of the volatile component and at high pool temperature, heat transfer coefficients increase with heat flux until they reach a maximum. At further increased heat fluxes the heat transfer coefficients decrease again. Observed temperature differences between heating surface and pool are much larger than for boiling fluids with low viscosity. Temperature differences up to 137 K (for a mixture containing 5% n-pentane by mass at a heat flux of 13.6 kW/m2) were measured.
