Steady two-dimensional free convection heat transfer from an isothermal horizontal cylinder located above an adiabatic horizontal surface is studied experimentally and numerically. Experiments are carried out using a Mach–Zehnder interferometer for the ratios of cylinder spacing from the adiabatic surface to its diameter L/D = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, and 0.9 and the Rayleigh number range of 500 to 15,000. Also, a specifically developed computer code based on the finite-volume method, the SIMPLE algorithm, and nonorthogonal discretization grid system is used for the solution of the mass-, momentum-, and energy-governing equations for the Rayleigh numbers ranging from 100 to 100,000 and L/D ranging from 0.1 to 1.7. The effects of the Rayleigh number and spacing from the adiabatic surface on both local and average Nusselt numbers around the cylinder are investigated. A correlation based on the numerical data for the average Nusselt number of the cylinder as a function of Rayleigh number and L/D is presented in the aforementioned ranges. 相似文献

A parametric study of Prandtl number effects on laminar natural convection heat transfer in a horizontal equilateral triangular cylinder with a coaxial circular cylinder is conducted. The Prandtl number is varied over a wide range from 10?2 to 105, which corresponds to a variety of working fluids. The governing equations with the Boussinesq approximation for buoyancy are iteratively solved using the finite volume approach. It is shown that the flow patterns and temperature distributions are unique for low-Prandtl-number fluids (Pr ≤ 0.1), and are nearly independent of Prandtl number when Pr ≥ 0.7. In addition, the inclination angle of the triangular enclosure is found to noticeably affect the variations of the local Nusselt number, and to have insignificant influence on the average Nusselt numbers for low Rayleigh numbers when Pr ≥ 0.7. 相似文献

The topic of this research is the importance of convection heat transfer coefficient and the effect that ambient pressure has on it. Toward this end, an experimental study was performed to investigate the effects of air pressure on natural convection heat transfer from a horizontal cylinder. Pressure was varied from 1 to 220 kPa and the convection coefficient was obtained in the temperature range from 50 to 100°C. Various diagrams and tables were obtained to show the dependence of natural convection on pressure. A correlation was derived to describe the heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number as a function of pressure and Knudsen number or Rayleigh and Knudsen number. The rate of heat transfer by radiation was also compared with convection at different temperatures and pressures. 相似文献

Heat transfer in horizontal cylinders exposed to free convection and radiation is of importance in many industries. Usually this problem is treated by adopting a concentric geometry, disregarding that the external surface temperature is not uniform. If an eccentric geometry is used, the external surface temperature should have a larger variation, changing the flow around the cylinder and the heat transfer coefficient, either improving or reducing the heat transfer. A numerical analysis is presented of the heat transfer in a horizontal cylinder with an internal isothermal surface eccentric to the external surface that is exposed to air free convection and radiation. The conduction problem was solved analytically and integrated numerically, while the free convection was solved by the PHOENICS software. The parameters analyzed were the ratio of radius, the ratio between the material and air thermal conductivities, the Rayleigh number, the emissivity of the outer surface, and the eccentricity between the external and inner surfaces. The parameters of a proposed equation to estimate the total heat of an eccentric arrangement in terms of the total heat of the corresponding concentric arrangement and the ratio between the convective and conductive thermal resistances were determined for given ratios of radius and eccentricities. 相似文献

The laminar free convection heat transfer from an isothermal horizontal cylinder of elliptical cross-section confined between two adiabatic walls is investigated by the Mach-Zehnder interferometry technique. The ellipse major axis is vertical, and the minor to major axis ratio is kept constant to 0.53. This paper focuses on the effect of wall spacing and Rayleigh number variation on the local and average free convection heat transfer coefficient from the cylinder surface. The local and average Nusselt numbers were determined for the Rayleigh number range of 9 × 10 2 to 3.2 × 10 3 and wall spacing to cylinder minor axis ratios of 1.9, 2.3, 2.67, 3.17, 3.8, 4.6, 6.12, 8, 13, ∞. Results are indicated with a single correlation that gives the average Nusselt number as a function of the ratio of the wall spacing to cylinder minor axis and the Rayleigh number. There is an optimum distance between the walls in which the Nusselt number is maximum. The experiment was also carried out on a cylinder of circular cross-section with the same periphery and length of the elliptic cylinder to allow a comparison with the results of other research. 相似文献

Abstract The problem of heat conduction in a two-dimensional anisotropic cylinder subject to asymmetric and periodic heat flux distribution on the outer wall is solved numerically. The dimensional analysis of the problem reveals that the heat conduction is a function of five nondimensional parameters: nondimensional frequency (α), cylinder outer to inner radius ratio (R2), Biot number (Bi), orthotropicity factor (K1), and anisotropicity factor (Kr1). A systematic study of the effect of each parameter is carried out over the influential range for each parameter. The results show that, depending on the combination of these parameters, the magnitude and/or phase of heat conduction in an anisotropic cylinder can be significantly different from those of an orthotropic and isotropic cylinder when subjected to the same externally imposed heat flux distribution. 相似文献

Experimental investigations have been reported on steady-state natural convection from the outer surfaces of horizontal ducts with triangular cross sections in air. Two different horizontal positions are considered; in the first position, the vertex of the triangle faces up, while in the other position, the vertex faces down. Five equilateral triangular cross-section ducts have been used with cross-section side length of 0.044, 0.06, 0.08, 0.10, and 0.13 m. The ducts are heated using internal constant-heat-flux heating elements. The temperatures along the surface and peripheral directions of the duct wall are measured. Longitudinal (perimeter-averaged) heat transfer coefficients along the side of each duct are obtained for natural convection heat transfer. Total overall averaged heat transfer coefficients are also obtained. Longitudinal (perimeter-averaged) Nusselt numbers and the modified Rayleigh numbers are evaluated and correlated using different characteristic lengths. Furthermore, total overall averaged Nusselt numbers are correlated with the modified Rayleigh numbers. Moreover, a dimensionless temperature group was developed and correlated with the modified Rayleigh number. For the upward-facing case, laminar and transition regimes are obtained and characterized. However, for the downward-facing vertex case, only the transition regime is observed. The local (perimeter-averaged) or the overall total Nusselt numbers increase as the modified Rayleigh numbers increase in the transition regime. However, Nusselt numbers decrease as the modified Rayleigh numbers increase in the laminar regime. 相似文献

A numerical investigation of flow and heat transfer around a square cylinder at incidence (α = 0° ? 45°) is presented for a range of Reynolds numbers ( Re = 60 ? 150). A finite-volume code suitable for unstructured grids has been developed to simulate the flow. The unstructured grid has been generated using the Delaunay triangulation algorithm. A modified pressure-velocity correction scheme with semi-explicit time-stepping is implemented to solve the Navier-Stokes equations. Collocated grid arrangement has been used for the dependent variables. Convective terms have been discretized using a second order upwind least squares scheme. The formation of Karman vortex street has been captured and the Strouhal number associated with the wake has been determined. The dependence of Strouhal number, force coefficients (drag and lift), moment coefficient and average Nusselt number on Reynolds number, and angle of incidence for a fixed blockage ratio has been reported and analyzed. 相似文献

Three-Dimensional Numerical Study of Natural Convective Heat Transfer of Liquid in a Cubic Enclosure
ABSTRACT Steady-state laminar natural convection in a cubic enclosure with a cold vertical wall and two hot square heaters with constant temperature on the opposite wall is studied numerically. The enclosure is filled with various liquids. Three-dimensional Navier–Stokes Equations are solved by employing the SIMPLE algorithm. Computations are performed for a range of Rayleigh number from 103 to 107 while enclosure aspect ratio varies from 0.05 to 1.6. The effects of Rayleigh number, enclosure aspect ratio, and Prandtl number on heat transfer characteristics are studied in detail. The results show that the flow field is very complex and heat transfer from the two heaters is not the same. The effects of Prandtl number are negligible in the range from 5 to 140 with other parameters kept constant. This allows the use of liquids such as water for studying other dielectric liquids, provided the flow geometry and other nondimensional parameters are similar. The overall Nusselt number increases markedly with Rayleigh number. It is also affected by enclosure aspect ratio. It attains the maximum value when aspect ratio is in the range of 0.1–0.2 and decreases as enclosure aspect ratio varies from 0.2 to 1.6. Also, various settings of cooling face and arrangement of heaters are investigated, and the results show that they have considerable effects on heat transfer of both heaters. 相似文献

In the present work, heat transfer and entropy generation characteristics are numerically investigated in presence of single and double obstructive blocks within a square enclosure. It is found that the adiabatic block(s) enhance(s) the heat transfer marginally up to a critical size in a convection-dominated regime. On the other hand, the enhancement parameter is observed to be more with an increase in block size in a lower range of Rayleigh numbers for an isothermal block. The entropy generation for thermal irreversibility is observed to be several orders higher than that due to viscous dissipation in all cases. 相似文献

The finite-volume method (FVM) for radiation heat transfer with a nonscattering medium is extended to an isotropic scattering medium, and this method is implemented in the fluid flow solver GTEA on hybrid grids. For comparison and validation, three test cases, a semicircle enclosure with a hole, a rhombic enclosure, and a square cavity, are chosen. All the results obtained by the present FVM agree very well with the numerical solutions in the references. Furthermore, the effects of the extinction coefficient and scattering albedo on the flow and temperature distribution are studied numerically in the cavity based on present approach. As the extinction coefficient increases from 0.2 to 5, the temperature gradient adjacent to the hot and cold walls gradually decreases at Ra = 105, however, the temperature profiles become similar at Ra = 106. For Ra = 105, 106, the scattering albedo affects the structures of the isotherm and streamline to some extent. As the scattering albedo increases, the convection heat transfer in the middle region of the hot wall increases, but the radiation heat transfer and the total radiation heat transfer along the hot wall decrease. 相似文献

Abstract Results are presented for the experimental investigations of free convection heat transfer from upward facing isothermal horizontal rectangular plates as a function of the plate width. Two models of the convective fluid flow structures above horizontal rectangular plates were proposed as a result of flow visualization. Solutions of these models are presented in the form of Nusselt-Rayleigh relations with the aspect ratio as a parameter. Analysis of the visualization results provided a basis for preferring the radial flow pattern at small values of the Rayleigh number, especially for square plates or at the ends of rectangular plates, and a basis for preferring the parallel flow model at large values of the Rayleigh number. From the previous experimental results and the present experimental and interferometric studies, it is shown that the transition Rayleigh number at which the flow changes from the concentric to the parallel flow pattern is a function of the width of the plate. 相似文献

Laminar free convection heat transfer from vertical and inclined arrays of horizontal isothermal cylinders in air were investigated experimentally. Experiments were carried out using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. For the vertical array, the cylinder spacing (center to center) varied from 2 to 5 cylinder diameter. The same range of vertical spacing also was used for the inclined array. The horizontal spacing varied from 0 to 2 cylinder diameter in the inclined array. The Rayleigh number based on the cylinder diameter varied between 103 and 3× 103. The effect of vertical and horizontal cylinder spacing and Rayleigh number on the heat transfer from each individual cylinder and the whole array were investigated. It is found that the free convection heat transfer from any individual cylinder in the array depends on its position relative to the others. Heat transfer correlations have been developed for any individual cylinder in the vertical and inclined arrays and for the arrays. Also the experiment was carried out on a single cylinder for a comparison with the results from other research. 相似文献

In this paper, an experimental investigation on the heat transfer of saturated water falling film on a single horizontal plain tube is presented. The water film falling on the outside of the tube has been heated by the condensing steam flowing in the tube, and the heat transfer coefficient between the water film and the steam has been measured. Experiments were performed at saturation temperatures of liquid film and steam as 58°C and 61°C, and 61°C and 65°C, a tube pitch of 57.16 mm, heat fluxes from 10 to 50 kW m-2, and film flow rate per unit of length of the tube up to 0.12 kg m?1 s?1. Brass plain tubes with external diameters of 25.4 mm and lengths of 950 mm were used in the experiments. The experimental results show that the heat transfer coefficient increases with the increasing film flow rate and heat flux, and the quality of vapor has an obvious influence on the heat transfer performance of falling film evaporation. The coupling of condensation and evaporation heat transfer inside and outside the tube is investigated qualitatively in this paper. 相似文献

A two-dimensional numerical study is undertaken to investigate the influences of cross buoyancy on the vortex shedding phenomena behind a long heated equilateral triangular cylinder for the low-Reynolds-number laminar regime. The flow is considered in an unbounded medium; however, fictitious confining boundaries are chosen on the lateral sides to make the problem computationally feasible. Numerical calculations are performed by using a finite-volume method based on the pressure-implicit with splitting of operators algorithm in a collocated grid system. The range of Reynolds number is chosen to be 10–100 with a fixed Prandtl number, 0.71. The mixed convection effect is studied for the Richardson number range of 0–1. The effects of superimposed thermal buoyancy on flow and isotherm patterns are presented and discussed. The global flow and heat transfer quantities such as the overall drag and lift coefficients, local and surface average Nusselt numbers, and Strouhal number are calculated and discussed for various Reynolds and Richardson numbers. 相似文献
