This requires the use of additional reinforcement in order to prevent excessive or permanent deformation of PVC windows. In the paper particular attention was devoted to space located in a corrosive environment exposed to chemical agents. For this purpose, proposed to change the previously used steel profiles reinforcements made of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy corrosion-resistant in the air, at sea and many types of industrial atmosphere. Analysis of the thermal insulation properties of PVC windows with additional reinforcement of profile Ti6Al4V titanium alloy was performed. PVC window set in a layer of thermal insulation was analyzed. Research was conducted using Finite Element Analysis. Numerical models and thermal calculations were made in the program ADINA, assuming appropriate material parameters. The constant internal temperature of 20 ̊ and an outer-20 ̊ was assumed. The course of temperature distribution in baffle in time 24 hours and graphs of characteristic points was obtained. The time of in which followed the steady flow of heat, as well as the course of isotherm of characteristic temperature in the baffle was determined. On the basis of numerical analysis obtained vector distribution of heat flux q [W/m2] and was determined heat transfer coefficients U [W/m2K] for the whole window with titanium reinforcement . All results were compared with the model of PVC windows reinforced with steel profile.

Due to the complexity of hot stamping mechanism, including the coupling of material formability, thermal interaction and metallurgical microstructure, it makes the process design more difficult even with the aid of the finite element analysis. In the present study, the experimental platforms were developed to measure and derive the friction and heat transfer coefficients, respectively. The experiments at various elevated temperatures and contact pressures were conducted and the friction coefficients and heat transfer coefficients were obtained. A finite element model was also established with the experimental data and the material properties of the boron steel calculated from the JMatPro software. The finite element simulations for the hot stamping forming of an automotive door beam, including transportation analysis, hot forming analysis and die quenching analysis were then performed to examine the forming properties of the door beam. The validation of the finite element results by the production part confirms the efficiency and accuracy of the developed experimental platforms and the finite element analysis for the process design of hot stamping.

Abstract This paper presents an experimental investigation on MEMS impinging jets as applied to micro heat exchangers. We have fabricated MEMS single and array jet nozzles using DRIE technology, as well as a MEMS quartz chip providing a simulated hot surface for jet impingement. The quartz chip, with an integrated polysilicon thin-film heater and distributed temperature sensors, offers high spatial resolution in temperature measurement due to the low thermal conductivity of quartz. From measured temperature distributions, heat transfer coefficients are computed for single and array micro impinging jets using finite element analysis. The results from this study for the first time provide extensive data on spatial distributions of micro impinging-jet heat transfer coefficients, and demonstrate the viability of MEMS heat exchangers that use micro impinging jets.

One characteristic of hot stamping of ultra high strength steels is the high wear rate of the used tools which leads to shorter tool life. Coatings improving wear resistance can increase the lifetime of the used tools but process relevant data such as the heat transfer capability of coated tool steels are missing. Within this paper the heat transfer capabilities of coated tool steels for the hot stamping processes are determined. Therefore different coating systems based on AlCrN are applied on the tool steels and the pressure dependent heat transfer coefficient is determined using process relevant conditions. As semi-finished blank the hot stamping steel 22MnB5 with an aluminum-silicon pre-coating is used. With respect to a finite element analysis of the forming operation of the hot stamping process the heat transfer coefficient represents an important input data for the process layout.

Polyisocyanurate (PIR) thermal insulation boards faced with carboard, plastic, aluminum, or multilayer facings are used for thermal insulation of buildings. Facing materials are selected according to the conditions of use of PIR products. At the corners of the building where these products are joined, facings can be in the direction of the heat flux movement and significantly increase heat transfer through the linear thermal bridge formed in the connection of PIR boards with facing of both walls. Analyzing the installation of PIR thermal insulation products on the walls of a building, the structural schemes of linear thermal bridges were created, numerical calculations of the heat transfer coefficients of the linear thermal bridges were performed, and the influence of various facings on the heat transfer through the thermal bridge was evaluated. Furthermore, an experimental measurement using a heat flow meter apparatus was performed in order to confirm the results obtained by numerical calculation. This study provides more understanding concerning the necessity to evaluate the impact of different thermal conductivity facings on the heat transfer through corners of buildings insulated with PIR boards.

The brakes of an automobile are among the most critical components regarding the safety features, and disc brakes are the most common type used in passenger vehicles. In this research, the squeal phenomena of a swirl-vent brake rotor and the thermal analysis of two straight-vent brake rotors, made of cast-iron and aluminum-alloy, are investigated. For the squeal analysis, finite element models are created and analyzed using a prestressed modal analysis with complex eigen-solutions. For the thermal analysis, heat transfer coefficients on the surfaces of a rotor as functions of time are first estimated by CFD simulation, and then imported to a thermal analysis program as the boundary condition. Finally, the temperature distribution of the rotor can be calculated by finite element analysis. The simulation results show that vortices will arise in the vented passages of straight-vent rotors, which means less heat carried away and lower heat transfer coefficients. The swirl-vent brake design is clearly better for thermal ventilation. Furthermore, under the same condition, aluminum-alloy rotors exhibit more uniform temperature distributions with smaller temperature gradients than cast-iron rotors do.

It is expected that the next generation of water-cooled nuclear reactors will operate at supercritical pressures (∼25 MPa) and high coolant temperatures (350–625°C). In support of the development of SuperCritical Water-cooled Reactors (SCWRs), research is currently being conducted for heat-transfer at supercritical conditions. Currently, there are no experimental datasets for heat transfer from power reactor fuel bundles to the fuel coolant (water) available in open literature. Therefore, for preliminary calculations, heat-transfer correlations obtained with bare-tube data can be used as a conservative approach. A number of empirical generalized correlations, based on experimentally obtained datasets, have been proposed to calculate Heat Transfer Coefficients (HTCs) in forced convective heat transfer for various fluids, including water, at supercritical pressures. These bare-tube-based correlations are available in various literature sources. There have been a number of methods applied to correlate heat transfer data. The most conventional approach, which accounts for property variations in the data, is to modify the classical Dittus-Boelter equation for forced convection. However, analysis and comparison of these correlations has shown that differences in HTC values can be up to several hundred percent. In general, the familiar correlations of Dittus-Boelter and Bishop et al. have used the bulk-fluid temperature approach for characteristic temperature properties evaluations. However, at high heat fluxes, fluid near the tube-wall will have a temperature close to that of the wall temperature. This might be significantly different from the bulk-fluid temperature. Therefore, another approach can be used based on the wall temperature as the characteristic temperature. The Swenson et al. correlation is based upon this approach. Finally, a third approach has been considered in which the film-temperature is used as the characteristic temperature (Tf = (Tw+Tb) / 2). McAdams et al. based their correlation for annuli on this approach. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to evaluate the three characteristic temperature approaches, (1) Bulk-fluid temperature approach; (2) Wall-temperature approach; and (3) Film-temperature approach, and determine which characteristic temperature method can most accurately predict supercritical water heat transfer coefficients. Both classical correlations and more recently developed correlations are considered in this investigation.

Materials with a low coefficient of surface radiation intensively reflect the radiant component of the heat flux and reduce heat losses through the building envelope. When designing building structures with reflective thermal insulation it is necessary to evaluate the efficiency of its application. However, at present there are no methods for calculating the value of thermal losses through external walls in the presence of reflective thermal insulation on internal surface of the wall, as well as there are no data on the values of heat transfer coefficients at the inner surface of building envelope with reflective thermal insulation. In this regard, in the climatic chambers of NIISF RAABS, complex thermal engineering studies were carried out. For this a cellular concrete wall 2,8 x1,2 m was put up into the chamber with reflective thermal insulation on the inner surface and without it. The obtained results of experimental studies, presented in the work, allowed obtaining numerical values of heat transfer coefficients at the inner surface of walls with reflective thermal insulation, and use the obtained data in further calculations.

Trailing edge cooling cavities in modern gas turbine airfoils play an important role in maintaining the trailing edge temperature at levels consistent with airfoil design life. In this study, local and average heat transfer coefficients were measured in a test section simulating the trailing edge cooling cavity of a turbine airfoil using the steady-state liquid crystal technique. The test rig was made up of two adjacent channels, each with a trapezoidal cross sectional area. The first channel, simulating the cooling cavity adjacent to the trailing-edge cavity, supplied the cooling air to the trailing-edge channel through a row of racetrack-shaped slots on the partition wall between the two channels. Eleven crossover jets, issued from these slots entered the trailing-edge channel and exited from a second row of race-track shaped slots on the opposite wall in staggered or inline arrangement. Two jet angles were examined. The baseline tests were for zero angle between the jet axis and the trailing-edge channel centerline. The jets were then tilted towards one wall (pressure or suction side) of the trailing-edge channel by five degrees. Results of the two set of tests for a range of local jet Reynolds number from 10,000 to 35,000 were compared. The numerical models contained the entire trailing-edge and supply channels with all slots to simulate exactly the tested geometries. They were meshed with all-hexa structured mesh of high near-wall concentration. A pressure-correction based, multi-block, multi-grid, unstructured/adaptive commercial software was used in this investigation. Standard high Reynolds number k–ε turbulence model in conjunction with the generalized wall function for most parts was used for turbulence closure. Boundary conditions identical to those of the experiments were applied and several turbulence model results were compared. The numerical analyses also provided the share of each cross-over and each exit hole from the total flow for different geometries. The major conclusions of this study were: a) except for the first and last cross-flow jets which had different flow structures, other jets produced the same heat transfer results on their target surfaces, b) jets tilted at an angle of 5 degrees produced higher heat transfer coefficients on the target surface. The tilted jets also produced the same level of heat transfer coefficients on the wall opposite the target wall and c) the numerical predictions of impingement heat transfer coefficients were in good agreement with the measured values for most cases thus CFD could be considered a viable tool in airfoil cooling circuit designs.

An investigation of die temperature changes and the heat transfer coefficient during hot forging of titanium alloy has been carried out using experiments and a thermal-plastic coupled finite element analysis. Hot Ti-6A1–4V rings were forged between two heated flat dies made of Inconel alloy IN718. The bottom die was instrumented with high-response thermocouples on its surface and subsurface. The recorded temperatures were analysed and used to determine the interface heat transfer coefficient between the die and the workpiece in conjunction with the thermal-plastic coupled finite element analysis using a reverse algorithm. The coefficients determined were then used in a finite element model for the analysis of the upsetting process and the results produced were in good agreement with the experimental data.
