Two-dimensional numerical model is adopted to analyze the heat transfer process during solidification of the sample melted in an Arc-image furnace. Numerical solution of this complex problem enabled us to calculate the temperature distribution in both sample and substrate, including the phase change phenomena. Also, the effects of process parameters on the solidification of the sample melted on substrate that is cooled by water can be investigated numerically. The parameters include sample size, contact area size between the sample and the substrate, and degree of undercooling associated with rapid phase change and moving interface. The results obtained reveal that these parameters have strong effect on temperature distribution during solidification.

Heterogeneous integration in microelectronic systems using interposer technology has attracted significant research attention in the past few years. Interposer technology is based on stacking of several heterogeneous chips on a common carrier substrate, also referred to as the interposer. Compared to other technologies such as System-on-Chip (SoC) or System-in-Package (SiP), interposer-based integration offers several technological advantages. However, the thermal management of an interposer-based system is not well understood. The presence of multiple heat sources in various die and the interposer itself needs to be accounted for in any effective thermal model. While a finite-element based simulation may provide a reasonable temperature prediction tool, an analytical solution is highly desirable for understanding the fundamentals of the heat transfer process in interposers. In this paper, we describe our recent work on analytical modeling of heat transfer in interposer-based microelectronic systems. The basic governing energy conservation equations are solved to derive analytical expressions for the temperature distribution in an interposer-based microelectronic system. These solutions are combined with an iterative approach to provide the three-dimensional temperature field in an interposer. Results are in excellent agreement with finite-element solutions. The analytical model is utilized to study the effect of various parameters on the temperature field in an interposer system. Results from this work may be helpful in the thermal design of microelectronic systems containing interposers.

The heat produced in the nuclear reactor due to fission reaction must be kept in control or else it will damage the components in the reactor core. Nuclear plants are using water for the operation dissipation of heat. Instead, some chemical substances which have higher heat transfer coefficient and high thermal conductivity. This experiment aims to find out how efficiently a nanofluid can dissipate heat from the reactor vault. The most commonly used nanofluid is Al2O3 nanoparticle with water or ethylene as base fluid. The Al2O3 has good thermal property and it is easily available. In addition, it can be stabilized in various PH levels. The nanofluid is fed into the reactor?s coolant circuit. The various temperature distribution leads to different characteristic curve that occurs on various valve condition leading to a detailed study on how temperature distribution carries throughout the cooling circuit. As a combination of Al2O3 as a nanoparticle and therminol 55 as base fluid are used for the heat transfer process. The Al2O3 nanoparticle is mixed in therminol 55 at 0.05 vol.% concentration. Numerical analysis on the reactor vault model was carried out by using ABAQUS and the experimental results were compared with numerical results.

Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) conduction pumping is associated with the heterocharge layers of finite thickness in the vicinity of the electrodes, generated by the process of dissociation of the neutral electrolytic species and recombination of the generated ions. This paper numerically investigates the EHD conduction pumping of a thin liquid film in the presence of phase change. The flow system comprises a liquid film flowing over a two-dimensional flat plate while the vapor phase extended far beyond the interface to result in almost motionless vapor. The channel is separated into four different sections: the entrance, electrode, evaporation, and downstream sections. The entrance, electrode and downstream regions are adiabatic while a constant heat flux is applied in the evaporation side. The concept of EHD conduction pumping of liquid film in the presence of phase change is demonstrated in this paper. The enhanced heat transfer due to conduction pumping is evaluated.

The aim of this work is a theoretical investigation to the problem of heat transfer from an isothermal horizontal cylinder rotating in a quiescent fluid. The study is based on the solution of the conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy for two-dimensional flow of a Boussinesq fluid. The effects of the parameters which influence the heat transfer process namely the Reynolds number and Grashof number are considered while the Prandtl number is held constant. Streamline and isotherm patterns are obtained from the mathematical model and the results are compared with previous experimental data. A satisfactory agreement was found.

In many convective liquid–vapor phase-change heat transfer engineering applications, cryogenic fluids are widely used in industrial processes, spacecraft and cryosurgery systems, and so on. For example, cryogens are usually used as liquid fuels such as liquid hydrogen, liquid methane, and liquid oxygen in the rocket industry, liquid nitrogen and helium are frequently used to cool superconducting magnetic device for medical applications. In these systems, proper transport, handling, and storage of cryogenic fluids are of extreme importance. Among all the cryogenic transport processes performed in room temperatures, quenching, also termed chilldown, is an unavoidable initial, transient phase-change heat transfer process that brings the system down to the cryogenic condition. The Leidenfrost temperature or rewet temperature that signals the end of film boiling is practically considered the completion point of a quenching process. Therefore, rewet temperature has been considered the most important parameter for the engineering design of cryogenic thermal management systems. As most of the previous correlations for predicting the Leidenfrost temperature and the rewet temperature have been developed for water, they are shown to disagree with recent liquid nitrogen pipe chilldown experiments in upward and downward flow directions over a wide range of flow rates, pressures, and degrees of inlet subcooling. In addition to a complete review of the literature, two modified correlations are presented, one based on bubble growth and another based on the theoretical maximum limit of superheat. Each correlation performs well over the entire dataset.

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ventilation openings and fire intensity on heat transfer and fluid flow within the microclimate between 3D human body and clothing.Design/methodology/approachOn account of interaction effects of fire and ventilation openings on heat transfer process, a 3D transient computational fluid dynamics model considering the real shape of human body and clothing was developed. The model was validated by comparing heat flux history and distribution with experimental results. Heat transfer modes and fluid flow were investigated under three levels of fire intensity for the microclimate with ventilation openings and closures.FindingsTemperature distribution on skin surface with open microclimate was heavily depended on the heat transfer through ventilation openings. Higher temperature for the clothing with confined microclimate was affected by the position and direction of flames injection. The presence of openings contributed to the greater velocity at forearms, shanks and around neck, which enhanced the convective heat transfer within microclimate. Thermal radiation was the dominant heat transfer mode within the microclimate for garment with closures. On the contrary, convective heat transfer within microclimate for clothing with openings cannot be neglected.Practical implicationsThe findings provided fundamental supports for the ease and pattern design of the improved thermal protective systems, so as to realize the optimal thermal insulation of the microclimate on the garment level in the future.Originality/valueThe outcomes broaden the insights of results obtained from the mesoscale models. Different high skin temperature distribution and heat transfer modes caused by thermal environment and clothing structure provide basis for advanced thermal protective clothing design.

The problem of a planar solidification of a material with an additional nonstationary radiant of heat on a semi-infinite plane has been solved. For a solution the condition of Stefan was used. Results have been compared with an analytical solution in case of the absence of an additional radiant of heat, as well as with a solution obtained by perturbations method. A more complicated two-dimensional nonstationary problem of a solidification of a liquid with interface free-boundary has been also solved. The purpose of this problem solution is to predict position of a material phase boundary, as well as the temperature distribution in a layer of PCM (Phase-Change Material) with boundary conditions of Dirichlet.
