In this paper an analysis of laminar heat transfer and fluid flow in a wavy fin-and-tube heat exchanger has been carried out. Three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulation results of a circular tube heat exchanger were compared with published numerical and experimental results. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) procedure was validated by comparing average Nusselt numbers, and good agreement between published and calculated results has been accomplished. The influence of inlet air velocity, varying from 0.5 to 5 m s?1, as well as fin pitch, varying from 0.4 to 4 mm, on heat transfer and pressure drop conditions has been studied. The results have shown that there is an optimal fin pitch for each air velocity, which gives the best heat exchanger performance from the heat transfer point of view. 相似文献

A lattice Boltzmann model is applied to simulate fluid–solid coupling heat transfer in fractal porous medium. The numerical simulation is conducted to investigate the influences of pressure drop and porosity on fluid flows and the effect of thermal conductivity ratio of solid matrix to fluid on heat transfer. The simulation results indicate that fluid flows still obey Darcy’s Law in the range of flow and pressure level in this paper, and that both velocity field and temperature evolution conform to the local structural characteristics of porous medium. The comparison of temperature results from lattice Boltzmann model against those from the finite-volume method (FVM, one of the conventional CFD methods) is also presented to demonstrate the reliability of LBM. The present results agree well with those from FVM, All these indicate the feasibility and the reliability for the lattice Boltzmann model to be used to reveal the phenomenon and rules of fluid–solid coupling heat transfer in complex porous structures. 相似文献

An active cooling substrate (ACS) is a microelectro mechanical system (MEMS) device which implements the synthetic jet concept into printed wiring board (PWB) to enhance thermal management. This paper presents a numerical approach to solve the synthetic jet fluid mechanics and heat transfer problem. Fluent, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) package, is utilized to perform the three-dimensional (3-D), unsteady, and double precision simulations. The large eddy simulation (LES) is selected as the turbulence model. The simulation results are consistent with the experimental data. A numerical predictive model is developed for future designs of synthetic jet based active cooling substrates. 相似文献

This article addresses the numerical analysis of single and multiple circular jets impinging perpendicularly on a flat plate for heating and cooling purposes. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to evaluate heat transfer calculations for different configurations and different flow boundary conditions. The commercial CFD package FLUENT is employed with various turbulence models. Results for a single jet are validated against experimental data. The SST k ? ω turbulence model is compared with the elliptic V2F model, and both were validated against experimental data. Results were obtained for a range of jet Reynolds numbers and jet-to-target distances. Optimization results for the single jet case are validated against experimental data. The SST k ? ω and V2F turbulence models succeeded with a reasonable accuracy (within 20% error) in reproducing experimental results. The heat transfer rates from the use of multijet configurations are discussed in the article. Transient heat transfer between multiple jets and a moving plate is more difficult to study due to the changing boundaries but is also very relevant in engineering applications. This article presents full CFD calculations of the transient heat transfer between a bank of circular jets and a moving plate. Design optimization has also been achieved for the single- and multiple-jet configurations. 相似文献

The efficient use of pulverized coal is crucial to the utility industries. The use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD)‐based numerical models has an important role in the design of new boiler furnaces or in retrofitting situations. The results of CFD simulations can be used to better understand the complex processes occurring within the boiler furnace. The use of these results to support boiler operation and training of operators requires that the CFD models can be easily accessed and the results are easily analysed. This paper discusses two ways to simulate the heat transfer process in boiler furnaces. The method directly applying CFD results is employed, in which the grid for solving the energy equation is the same as the flow grid in the CFD simulation while radiation heat transfer is solved in another relatively coarse grid. Comparison of the prediction results between CFD and Heat Transfer code (Simple model) is performed under boiler full load (100%) with one side wall fouling, as well as for different boiler loads (100, 98 and 95 per cent boiler full load, respectively). Finally, the flexible use of the results of CFD and the simple model for pulverized coal‐fired boilers is presented. To facilitate the use of the system, a user‐friendly interface was developed which enables the user to manipulate new calculations and to view results, namely performing ‘what–if’ analysis.

Measurement of the flame temperature in a micro combustor is essentially difficult due to the size constraint. A one-dimensional (1D) flame model coupled with the heat conduction in the solid wall is employed to analyze the heat transfer occurring in a cylindrical micro combustor. The flame temperature is given explicitly by taking into account the effects of the heat loss (from the flame to the wall) in the reaction zone and heat recirculation through the solid wall. With the data obtained from the simulation results of the 1D adiabatic freely propagating CH4–air laminar flames, the flame temperature in a cylindrical micro combustor can be solved iteratively. In order to validate the 1D model, the two-dimensional (2D) numerical simulations of premixed combustion of the CH4–air mixtures are carried out in a 0.5 mm radius cylindrical micro combustor. The comparisons of the flame temperature and heat recirculation between the 1D model and 2D numerical simulation indicate that despite the simplifications and assumptions made in the present study, the 1D theoretical model is able to predict the flame temperature to a reasonable accuracy. 相似文献

The heat transfer characteristics of solid cylinders in a bed with tube-to-particle diameter ratio equal to 2, by the presence of contact points between the cylinders were investigated numerically. Three-dimensional CFD simulation of air flow through two different arrangements of particles in this randomly packed bed have been carried out by the standard κ–ε turbulence model with the use of FEMLAB (Multiphysics in MATLAB) software version 2.3. The simulation results were validated by naphthalene sublimation mass transfer experiments. From mass and heat transfer analogy, the Nusselt numbers for each cylindrical particle in bed were found from the corresponding Sherwood numbers. It is shown that the CFD simulation results can predict the heat transfer characteristics, with an acceptable average error compared to experimental values. 相似文献

直接空冷凝汽器喷雾增湿系统的结构优化 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
应用气水两相流的传热传质理论,建立了600MW直接空冷机组空冷凝汽器喷雾增湿系统三维数学模型,利用CFD软件对该系统进行了数值摸拟,并分析了在喷嘴纵向布置时,喷嘴布置高度、喷雾方向、喷雾压力及喷嘴孔径对喷雾增湿效果的影响.结果表明:当喷嘴孔径越小、喷嘴流量越少时,空冷单元内所需的喷嘴数就越多,且雾滴雾化的细度越小,越有利于雾滴的均匀分布及其在空冷单元内的充满度,对喷雾增湿的效果越明显.当喷嘴孔径为0.4 m、喷雾压力为1.2 MPa、喷嘴以对称方式距风机栈桥中心线4 m、喷嘴高度为0.3 m及喷嘴方向在χy平面内与y轴正方向夹角为120°时,凝汽器压力降幅最大,比喷雾前降低了8.84 kPa. 相似文献

In this study, the flow and heat transfer characteristics of regularly arranged cylindrical particles in a bed with bed-to-particle diameter ratio of 2.65 (The particle and bed diameter are 25 and 66 mm respectively and the bed height is 200 mm) have been studied in two different arrangements of particles. The first layout is coaxial particles which embrace 8 layers and 3 equilateral cylindrical particles in each layer); the second arrangement is similar to the first one but the intermittent layers have been rotated 60o. Three dimensional CFD simulation of air flow through these arrangements of particles in bed have been carried out by the standard κ-ε turbulence model with using of FEMLAB (Multiphysics in MATLAB) software version 2.3. For two configurations, comparisons between CFD results and experimental data have been drawn. Our results have been compared with prediction of empirical correlations for pressure drop of flow through the bed. The heat transfer CFD results were validated by naphthalene sublimation mass transfer experiments. The particle Nusselt number was obtained by using analogy between mass and heat transfer. A good quantitative and qualitative agreement between hydrodynamic of CFD simulation and experimental results was gained for both arrangements. The model predicts pressure drop of channel with two arrangements, coaxial and non-coaxial particles with an average error of 10% and 15%, respectively. Moreover, the CFD simulation has predicted the average particle Nusselt numbers of these two arrangements with an average quantitative error of 7% and 14%. Furthermore, the influence of wider range of Reynolds number (2500–6800) on particle Nusselt number has been investigated. 相似文献

The heat transfer analysis of considering heat-generating components with different locations of two side-wall fans in a three-dimensional desktop computer was investigated in this paper. Herein, the well-known computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code of PHOENICS was employed to simulate the dissipative heat transfer in a ventilated enclosure. The SIMPLEST algorithm with the hybrid scheme was utilized to simulate these flows. The parameters are focused on the inlet Reynolds number and the locations of two fans on one of the side-wall boards. The calculating results show that the heat transfer efficiency of mode 4 is better than the other three modes due to the directly dissipative heat by forcing fans right on the vicinity of the high heat-generating components. The present findings not only set up a numerical heat transfer analysis of desktop computer but also provide a basis for further simulation of the associated heat transfer for more complicated situations. 相似文献

This simulation involved a two-dimensional axisymmetric model of a full-motor initial grain of the reusable solid rocket motor of the Space Transportation System. It was conducted with the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) commercial code FLUENT®. This analysis was performed to maintain continuity with most related previous analyses; serve as a non-vectored baseline for any three-dimensional vectored nozzles; provide a relatively simple application and test for various CFD solution schemes, grid sensitivity studies, turbulence modeling, and heat transfer; and calculate nozzle convective heat transfer coefficients. The theoretical prediction of turbulent convective heat transfer in supersonic nozzles is scarce and challenging. The accuracy of the present results and the selection of the numerical schemes and turbulence models were based on matching the rocket ballistic predictions of mass flow rate, head end pressure, measured chamber pressure drop and vacuum thrust, and specific impulse. The matching for these ballistic predictions was found to be good. This study was limited to convective heat transfer, and the results compared favorably with some of the methods cited. Good agreement with the backed-out data of the ratio of the convective heat transfer coefficient to the specific heat at a constant pressure was made at the nozzle throat. Qualitative agreement was achieved upstream and downstream of the nozzle throat due to effects that are absent in this study. These backed-out data were devised to match nozzle erosion that resulted from the combination of heat transfer (convective, radiative, and conductive), chemical (transpiration), and mechanical (shear and particle impingement forces) effects. To the author's knowledge, these effects have not been investigated/reported simultaneously. 相似文献

Microchannel two‐phase flow is an effective cooling method used in microelectronics, in which the heat flux density is unevenly distributed usually. The paper is focused on numerical study the effect of aspect ratio on the flow boiling of microchannels with nonuniform heat flux. The heat source is a three‐dimensional (3D) integrated circuit. 3D microchannel model and volume of fluid method are coupled in numerical simulation. The results show that the aspect ratio has no relationship with the two‐phase pressure drop of the microchannel. It has a certain influence on the distribution of bubble shape. In terms of the heat transfer coefficient, the aspect ratio has a certain influence on a section of the inlet. Due to the nucleate boiling, the convective heat transfer in the remaining areas is the dominant factor and the average heat transfer coefficient is mainly determined by the heat flux at the bottom of the channel. 相似文献

A three-dimensional, transient numerical model of an individual pressure vessel (IPV) nickel–hydrogen battery has been developed based on energy conservation law, mechanisms of heat and mass transfer, and electrochemical reactions in the battery. The model, containing all components of a battery including the battery shell, was utilized to simulate the transient temperature of the battery, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technology. The comparison of the model prediction and experimental data shows a good agreement, which means that the present model can be used for the engineering design and parameter optimization of nickel–hydrogen batteries in aerospace power systems. Two kinds of optimization schemes were provided and evaluated by the simulated temperature field. Based on the model, the temperature simulation during five successive periods in a designed space battery was conducted and the simulation results meet the requirement of safe operation. 相似文献

Heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics through a porous medium were investigated using numerical simulations and experiment. For the numerical simulations two models were created: a two-dimensional numerical model and a Fluent™ computational fluid dynamics (CFD) porous media model. The experimental investigation consisted of a flow channel with a porous medium section that was heated from below by a heat source. The results of the numerical models were compared to the experimental data in order to determine the accuracy of the models. The numerical model was then modified to better simulate a matrix heat exchanger. This numerical model then generated temperature profiles that were used to calculate the heat transfer coefficient of the matrix heat exchanger and develop a correlation between the Nusselt number and the Reynolds number. 相似文献

Development of heat transfer coefficient correlation for concentric helical coil heat exchanger 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The present study deals with developing a Correlation for heat transfer coefficient for flow between concentric helical coils. Existing Correlation is found to result in large discrepancies with the increase in gap between the concentric coils when compared with the experimental results. In the present study experimental data and CFD simulations using Fluent 6.3.26 are used to develop improved heat transfer coefficient correlation for the flue gas side of heat exchanger. Mathematical model is developed to analyze the data obtained from CFD and experimental results to account for the effects of different functional dependent variables such as gap between the concentric coil, tube diameter and coil diameter which affects the heat transfer. Optimization is done using Numerical Technique and it is found that the new correlation for heat transfer coefficient developed in this investigation provides an accurate fit to the experimental results within an error band of 3–4%. 相似文献

In this study, the depth-averaged flow and energy equations for plate heat exchangers are presented. The equations are derived by integrating the original 3D flow and energy equations over the height of the gap between the bottom and top plates. This approach reduces the equations from 3D to 2D but still takes into account the frictions on the surfaces and heat transfer through the plates. The depth-averaging reduces the elapsed time of CFD simulations from hours to minutes. Thus, it is very practicable modelling method in real time design work. 2D CFD simulations with depth-averaged equations are compared with full 3D models for five different corrugation angles and corrugation lengths. The simulation results show that the 2D model predicts with relatively good accuracy the profile of the pressure drop and the temperature change as a function of the corrugation angle and the function of the corrugation length. In order to get more extensive information about the significance of the different geometry parameters on the efficiency of the heat exchanger, we simulated 30 different geometries with the fast 2D model. The results suggest that the temperature change is not as sensitive for the geometrical modifications as the pressure drop. 相似文献
