In the present work, numerical and experimental studies are proposed to predict and investigate the thermal characteristics of a thermal protection system consists of carbon foam matrix saturated with phase change material, PCM. Several types of carbon foam matrices with different porosities and thermal properties were introduced for the sake of a parametric study. The composite (carbon foam matrix saturated with PCM) was introduced into a cylindrical enclosure while it experiences its heat from a heat source setting on the top of the enclosure. The numerical simulation was performed using the volume averaging technique and a finite volume technique was used to discretize the heat diffusion equation while the phase change process was modeled using the enthalpy porosity method. The results are portrayed in terms of temperature and heat absorption time history and the numerical and experimental results showed good agreement. The results illustrated that the higher the porosity the more stability of the thermal performance of the matrix composite. On the other hand, the thermal conductivity of the composite matrix acts sharply to increase or decrease its heat absorption rate. 相似文献

In the present research work, solid–liquid phase change heat transfer was studied experimentally as well as numerically for paraffin wax encapsulated in the annulus of two coaxial circular cylinders with variable heat flux. Two‐dimensional mathematical model (Navier–Stokes equation) in terms of primitive variables has been formulated to study the melting characteristics of the phase change material (PCM). The finite volume method (FVM) and semi‐implicit, that is, SIMPLE scheme are applied to discretise the governing equations and track the solid–liquid moving front. From the comparison of experimental data and numerical simulation, it is evident that the convective heat transfer is dominant in melting phase. From the computational results it is also observed that both eccentricity and the variation in the angle of inclination of the eccentricity plays an important role for the net circulation of the molten phase as well as the thermal flux at the inner surface of the annulus. 相似文献

相变材料的低热导率是限制潜热蓄热广泛应用的重要原因。将相变材料石蜡真空条件下注入到泡沫金属铜内制备泡沫金属铜-石蜡复合相变材料,通过铜的高热导率及高孔隙材料的大面体比来强化相变换热过程。采用DSC示差扫描量热法对石蜡进行热物性测量获得准确的石蜡相变温度及相变潜热。以管壳式相变蓄热结构为对象,提取对称结构进行可视化设计,对比纯石蜡及泡沫金属铜-石蜡复合材料在相同运行条件下的相变过程,追踪二者熔化过程的相界面位置随时间的演化过程并布置热电偶准确测量材料内部的温度分布。结果显示加入泡沫金属后的复合材料的内部温差明显减小,温度分布均匀,蓄热热通量显著增大,有效缩短相变时间并缓解了自然对流造成的顶部过热和底部不熔化现象。 相似文献

Effective thermal conductivity of composites of graphite foam infiltrated with phase change materials (PCM) was investigated numerically and experimentally. Graphite foam, as a highly-conductive, highly-porous structure, is an excellent candidate for infiltrating PCM into its pores and forming thermal energy storage composites with improved effective thermal conductivity. For numerical simulation, the graphite structure was modeled as a three-dimensional body-centered cube arrangement of uniform spherical pores, saturated with PCM thus forming a cubic representative elementary volume (REV). Thermal analysis of the developed REV was conducted for unidirectional heat transfer and the total heat flux was determined, which leads to the effective thermal conductivity evaluation. For experimental verification, a sample of graphite foam was infiltrated with PCM. The effective thermal conductivity was evaluated using the direct method of measuring temperature within the sample under fixed heat flux in unidirectional heat transfer. The results indicate a noticeable improvement in the effective thermal conductivity of composites compared to the PCM. Our numerical and experimental results are in agreement and are also consistent with reported experimental results on graphite foam. Moreover, the role of natural convection within the pores is found to be negligible. 相似文献

相变材料由于具有相变潜热,被应用于各领域的热管理。锂离子动力电池作为一种新能源,近年来广泛应用于电动汽车,相变冷却作为一种有效的被动冷却方式,能够有效减缓锂电池的热聚集。为将相变材料应用于减缓锂电池热失控,本工作建立了石蜡/纳米银复合相变材料(CPCM)的圆柱系统,使用相变模型及流体体积(VOF)模型研究了相变材料的融化过程,得到了初始时期空气/石蜡气液交界面的变化以及石蜡的液相分布,与实验结果具有很好的一致性。在此基础上分析了相变过程的吸热及储热情况。同时,针对不同质量分数的石蜡/纳米银复合相变材料进行模拟,结果表明,添加0.5wt%~2wt%的纳米银颗粒能够改善石蜡的导热性能,但潜热会有所降低。相变结束后,材料吸收的热量将转化为显热,底面传热减小,主要是通过壁面传热。另外分析了融化过程中液相的流动情况,相变材料液态层增厚,Nu数下降并趋于稳定,增加纳米银浓度也会降低Nu数。 相似文献

The objective of this investigation is to characterize the thermal response of stored munitions exposed to real weather conditions in order to validate current test procedures as well as develop the ability to provide an estimate of the thermal exposure over the lifecycle of a munition. Currently, the thermal history of munitions in storage cannot be determined without continuous monitoring of individual items and there is no method to provide a detailed estimate of the exposure by analyzing existing data when continuous data was not collected. This work describes the experimental and initial numerical investigations of instrumented munitions in storage to characterize their thermal response. The numerical model has the capability to validate broad trends observed from the experimental data. For this investigation, data is being collected through field experiments of inert munitions instrumented with thermocouples that are collocated near a weather station. Data from field experiments are used to develop and validate the numerical model. The numerical model will save time and resources in future investigations of the thermal exposure of munitions in storage as well as advance the understanding of the implications of selecting a long term storage environment. At a fundamental research level, this work contributes to the advances in combined heat transfer by natural convection and radiation inside a 3D enclosure combined with external forced convection and radiation. The numerical model includes several features including heat transfer to the enclosure by solar radiation, conduction, and forced convection, heat transfer between the enclosure container walls and the projectiles by radiation, conduction, and natural convection, heat transfer within the projectile by conduction, distributed thermal energy storage in projectiles, and transient temperature boundary condition at the enclosure walls. 相似文献

Polymeric phase change composites for thermal energy storage 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This article describes a group of thermal energy storage (TES) composites that combine TES and structural functionality. The composites are encapsulations of low melt temperature phase change materials (PCM) such as paraffin waxes in polymer matrices. Room temperature cured bisphenol‐A epoxy and styrene–ethylene–butylene–styrene (SEBS) polymers are chosen as matrix materials because of their excellent chemical and mechanical properties. The polymeric network structure in the composite encapsulates the PCMs, which transform from the solid to the liquid phase. The PCMs provide the energy storage function via the solid–liquid latent heat effect. The resulting composite exhibits dry‐phase transition in the sense that fluid motion of the PCM, when in the liquid phase, is inhibited by the structure of the polymer matrix. The polymer matrix is formulated to provide structural functionality. The latent heat, thermal conductivity and contact conductance, and structural moduli of composites having various PCM‐to‐matrix volume fractions are measured. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Experiments and simulations on flow and heat transfer behavior of Therminol-55 liquid phase heat transfer fluid have been conducted in a ribbed tube with the outer diameter and inner diameter 25.0 and 20.0 mm,pitch and rib height of 4.5 and 1.0 mm.respectively.Experimental results show that the heat transfer and thermal performance of Therminol-55 liquid phase heat transfer fluid in the ribbed tube are considerably improved compared to those of the smooth tube.The Nusselt number increase with the increase of Reynolds number.The increase in heat transfer rate of the ribbed tube has a mean value of 2.24 times.Also,the pressure drop results reveal that the average friction factor of the ribbed tube is in a range of 2.4 and 2.8 times over the smooth tube.Numerical simulations of three-dimensional flow behavior of Therminol-55 liquid phase heat transfer fluid are carried out using three different turbulence models in the ribbed tube.The numerical results show that the heat transfer of ribbed tube is improved because vortices are generated behind ribs,which produce some disruptions to fluid flow and enhance heat transfer compared with smooth tube.The numerical results prove that the ribbed tube can improve heat transfer and fluid flow performances of Therminol liquid phase heat transfer fluid. 相似文献

A mathematical model is established to describe the thermal debinding process of polymeric binder from a powder injection molding compact. The model takes into account of the thermal degradation of liquid polymer into liquid volatile fragment, the evaporation of liquid volatile fragment, the capillary driven liquid phase transport, the binary diffusion in solution, the convection and diffusion of gas phases, and the heat transfer in a porous medium. The proposed model is solved numerically based on a finite volume method and validated with experimental data. Based on the numerical results, the binder removal, the pressure buildup, the binder distribution, the mass transfers, and the removal mechanisms during thermal debinding are studied. 相似文献

Free heat and mass transfer during drying in a porous enclosure with free vents has been investigated numerically. Enclosed moist air interacts with the surrounding air through freely vented ports situated on both sides perpendicular to the heated wall. Air, heat, and moisture transport structures are visualized respectively by streamlines, heat lines, and mass lines. Effects of thermal Rayleigh number, Darcy number, vent location, and enclosure inclination on the convective heat/moisture transfer rate and volume flow rate across this enclosure are discussed. For each case, partially enclosed fluid flow undergoes different phases, increasing with buoyancy ratio; that is, heat transfer–driven flow, heat- and moisture-aided flow, and moisture transfer–dominated flow. Numerical results demonstrate that the convective heat and moisture transport patterns and transport rates greatly depend on thermal Rayleigh number, properties of porous medium, and enclosure inclination. Practices for enhancing heat and moisture transfer have been suggested for drying processes. 相似文献
