A simple solution for transient heat transfer during heating of a slab product

A theoretical and experimental study of transient heat transfer in the heating of an individual slab product, subjected to an air flow at a temperature of 50°C and a velocity of 1 m/s, is presented. Experimental temperature measurements at the centre of the slab product were made, and the experimental heat-transfer rates were derived from the temperature data. A simplified analytical technique, using the boundary condition of the third kind in transient heat transfer, was used to predict the theoretical heat transfer rates for two cases, the first considering that the heat transfer coefficient is a convective heat transfer coefficient, and the second considering that heat transfer coefficient is the sum of the convective and radiative heat transfer coefficients. The experimental heat-transfer rates were compared with the predictions for two cases, and a very good agreement was obtained.     

Design and fabrication of coaxial surface junction thermocouples for transient heat transfer measurements

Low cost coaxial surface junction thermocouples (CSJTs') have been fabricated in-house and calibrated to measure the transient surface temperature rise within a UNITEN's shock tube wall facility, consisting of K-type coaxial thermocouple elements. The aim of this paper is to explain the design technique of the CSJTs' and the difficulties that have occurred during the fabrication process. The microstructural analysis and the chemical characterization for these types of thermocouples have also been carried out to verify the surface morphology and to qualitatively evaluate the CSJT materials composition. The preliminary testing was performed to demonstrate the performance of these thermocouples to be used for measuring the surface temperatures and heat transfer rates under transient conditions. The preliminary results from shock tube tests have shown that these thermocouples have a time response on the order of microseconds and were suitable for making heat transfer measurements in highly transient conditions. It was concluded that the current construction technique produced gauges that were reliable, reproducible, rugged and inexpensive.

The heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics of a heat exchanger for recovering latent heat (the heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics of the heat exchanger with wing fin)

In recent years the requirement for reduction of energy consumption has been increasing to solve the problems of global warming and the shortage of petroleum resources. A latent heat recovery type heat exchanger is one of the effective methods of improving thermal efficiency by recovering latent heat. This paper described the heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics of a latent heat recovery type heat exchanger having a wing fin (fin pitch: 4 mm, fin length: 65 mm). These were clarified by measuring the exchange heat quantity, the pressure loss of heat exchanger, and the heat transfer coefficient between outer fin surface and gas. The effects of condensate behavior in the fins on heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics were clarified. Furthermore, the equations for predicting the heat transfer coefficient and pressure loss which are necessary in the design of the heat exchanger were proposed. ©2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Exergy transfer characteristics of forced convective heat transfer through a duct with constant wall heat flux

The examination of exergy transfer characteristics caused by forced convective heat transfer through a duct with constant wall heat flux for thermally and hydrodynamic fully developed laminar and turbulent flows has been presented. The exergy transfer Nusselt number is put forward and the dependence relationships of the exergy transfer Nusselt number on the heat transfer Nusselt number, Reynolds number and Prandtl number are obtained. Expressions involving relevant variables for the local and mean convective exergy transfer coefficient, non-dimensional exergy flux and exergy transfer rate, etc. have been derived. By reference to a smooth duct, the numerical results of exergy transfer characteristics for fluids with different Prandtl number are obtained and the effect of the Reynolds number and non-dimensional cross-sectional position on exergy transfer characteristics is analyzed. In addition, the results corresponding to the exergy transfer and energy transfer are compared.

Analysis of a transient heat transfer experiment in a two pass internal coolant passage

A study of heat transfer in a two-pass internal cooling passage of gas turbine airfoils is presented. Heat transfer measurements were performed with a transient technique using thermochromic liquid crystals. Flow temperature measurements along the channels are used to evaluate the heat transfer distribution. Thereby two methods are applied. The first uses the measured temperature histories directly and applies the superposition method for data evaluation. The second method analyses first the fluid temperature data using a simplified model and relates them to the average flow temperature at a given location. The results of both methods are compared.     

SLA (Second-law analysis) of transient radiative transfer processes

This paper concerns a SLA (second-law analysis) of transient radiative heat transfer in an absorbing, emitting and scattering medium. Based on Planck’s definition of radiative entropy, transient radiative entropy transfer equation and local radiative entropy generation in semitransparent media with uniform refractive index are derived. Transient radiative exergy transfer equation and local radiative exergy destruction are also derived based on Candau’s definition of radiative exergy. The analytical results are consistent with the Gouy–Stodola theorem of classical thermodynamics. As an application concerning transient radiative transfer, exergy destruction of diffuse pulse radiation in a semitransparent slab is studied. The transient radiative transfer equation is solved using the discontinuous finite element based discrete ordinates equation. Transient radiative exergy destruction is calculated by a post-processing procedure.

Bubble growth and transient heat transfer at the onset of boiling

An experimental study was conducted to investigate transient local heat transfer around a bubble at onset of boiling on a thin glass heating plate immersed in saturated n-hexane at low pressure. Eight rapid response Cu-Ni thermocouples consisting of a vacuum deposited thin film were used to measure the temperature change of the heating surface. Simultaneous high-speed video photographs were also obtained. The surface temperatures near a nucleation site decreased rapidly owing to the evaporation of a thin layer (microlayer) of liquid formed beneath the bubble in the early period and the rate of bubble growth increased with increasing incipient boiling superheat (ΔT_IB). The thickness of the microlayer decreased markedly with increasing ΔT_IB. © 1998 Scripta Technica, Heat Trans Jpn Res, 26(7): 484–492, 1997     

Experimental assessment of heat storage properties and heat transfer characteristics of a phase change material slurry for air conditioning applications

A new microencapsulated phase change material slurry based on microencapsulated Rubitherm RT6 at high concentration (45% w/w) was tested. Some heat storage properties and heat transfer characteristics have been experimentally investigated in order to assess its suitability for the integration into a low temperature heat storage system for solar air conditioning applications. DSC tests were conducted to evaluate the cold storage capacity and phase change temperature range. A phase change interval of approximately 3 °C and a hysteresis behaviour of the enthalpy were identified. An experimental set-up was built in order to quantify the natural convection heat transfer occurring from a vertical helically coiled tube immersed in the phase change material slurry. First, tests were carried out using water in order to obtain natural convection heat transfer correlations. Then a comparison was conducted with the results obtained for the phase change material slurry. It was found that the values of the heat transfer coefficient for the phase change material slurry were higher than for water, under identical temperature conditions inside the phase change interval.

Numerical analysis of peridynamic and classical models in transient heat transfer,employing Galerkin approach

The main scope of this research is to study transient heat transfer based on combined peridynamic theory and classical model. The principle of the energy conservation is used to develop the governing equation in case of existing both classical and peridynamic heat transfer mechanisms. The integro‐differential equation is developed containing the classical coefficient of heat conduction and peridynamic kernel function. To solve the equation, a spectral method based on a series solution in accordance with Gelerkin approach is implemented. Trapezoidal method is employed to compute the integral terms. Implicit Euler method is used to numerically solve the problem in time domain. In part of numerical studies, different kernel functions are attributed to the peridynamic coefficient of heat transfer. Relevant constraints are applied for making equivalency between classical and each of the peridynamic kernel functions. To ensure the accuracy of the numerical results, adequate convergence analyses are conducted. The results related to a few cases are compared to relevant data reported in the open literature showing good agreements. Moreover, comparisons are made to observe probable variations versus time. In case studies, effects of the nonlocal range on the heat transfer were studied.     

Heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics of a heat exchanger for recovering latent heat (effects of straight fin length and fin pitch on the heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics)

In recent years, the requirement for the reduction of energy consumption has been increasing to solve the problems of global warming and the shortage of petroleum resources. A latent heat recovery type heat exchanger is one of the effective methods for improving thermal efficiency by recovering latent heat. This paper describes the heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics of a latent heat recovery type heat exchanger having straight fins (fin length: 65 mm or 100 mm, fin pitch: 2.5 mm or 4 mm). These were clarified by measuring the exchange heat quantity, the pressure loss of the heat exchanger, and the heat transfer coefficient between the outer fin surface and gas. The effects of fin length and fin pitch on heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics were clarified. Furthermore, equations for predicting the heat transfer coefficient and pressure loss which are necessary for heat exchanger design were proposed. ©2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Exergy transfer analysis of convection heat transfer

In this paper, based on the fundamentals of thermodynamics and heat transfer, an analysis is made of the exergy transfer of convection heat transfer. Some exergy transfer differential equations are derived under constant thermophysical property and uncompressible laminar flow in the convection heat transfer process. Taking one‐ and two‐dimensional convection heat transfer as examples, respectively, the exergy functions are solved and calculated. Their results agree well with those results from thermodynamic analysis. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
