Investigation of Ti6Al4V and AA7075 alloy embedded nanofluid flow over longitudinal porous fin in the presence of internal heat generation and convective condition

The thermal attributes of porous fin due to radiation and natural convection have been carried out in the presence of nanofluid flow. The geometry of the fin taken for the analysis is rectangular profiled longitudinal fin. The temperature-dependent internal heat generation condition is also considered along with Darcy's model. The two types of nanofluid containing titanium alloy(Ti6Al4V) and aluminium alloy(AA7075) immersed in water is considered for the investigation.The modelled nonlinear ordinary differential equation is numerically solved by the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg technique. The impact of geometric parameter on the heat transfer analysis of the fin due to the flow of both nanofluids is plotted and consequences are physically interpreted. It is observed that the presence of the water-based titanium alloy better enhances the fin heat transfer rate.     

Electroosmosis-Optimized Thermal Model for Peristaltic Transportation of Thermally Radiative Magnetized Liquid with Nonlinear Convection

The present study addresses the heat transfer efficiency and entropy production of electrically conducting kerosene-based liquid led by the combined impact of electroosmosis and peristalsis mechanisms. Effects of nonlinear mixed convection heat transfer, temperature-dependent viscosity, radiative heat flux, electric and magnetic fields, porous medium, heat sink/source, viscous dissipation, and Joule heating are presented. The Debye–Huckel linearization approximation is employed in the electrohydrodynamic problem. Mathematical modeling is conducted within the limitations of δ << 1 and Re → 0. Coupled differential equations after implementing a lubrication approach are numerically solved. The essential characteristics of the production of entropy, the factors influencing it, and the characteristics of heat and fluid in relation to various physical parameters are graphically evaluated by assigning them a growing list of numeric values. This analysis reveals that heat transfer enhances by enhancing nonlinear convection and Joule heating parameters. The irreversibility analysis ensures that the minimization of entropy generation is observed when the parameters of viscosity and radiation are held under control. Fluid velocity can be regulated by adjusting the Helmholtz–Smoluchowski velocity and magnetic field strength.

Optimization of fin geometry in heat convection with entransy theory

The entransy theory developed in recent years is used to optimize the aspect ratio of a plate fin in heat convection.Based on a two-dimensional model,the theoretical analysis shows that the minimum thermal resistance defined with the concept of entransy dissipation corresponds to the maximum heat transfer rate when the temperature of the heating surface is fixed.On the other hand,when the heat flux of the heating surface is fixed,the minimum thermal resistance corresponds to the minimum average temperature of the heating surface.The entropy optimization is also given for the heat transfer processes.It is observed that the minimum entropy generation,the minimum entropy generation number,and the minimum revised entropy generation number do not always correspond to the best heat transfer performance.In addition,the influence factors on the optimized aspect ratio of the plate fin are also discussed.The optimized ratio decreases with the enhancement of heat convection,while it increases with fin thermal conductivity increasing.     

低温圆截面直肋结霜工况下的传热研究

通过对低温圆截面直肋在自然对流下的结霜研究,得出肋片在低温下的结霜特点和传热特性。空气相对湿度对结霜起主导作用,同一空气相对湿度下,霜层主要参数都在相仿的数值范围内变化。肋基温度对霜层生长的影响较小,但仍存在一种随着肋基温度的降低,结霜厚度随之增加的微弱趋势。随着空气相对湿度的增加,霜层厚度增大,但通过霜层的热通量和传热比反而增大,霜层物性对霜层的传热起决定性影响。     

Convective heat transfer flow of nanofluid in a porous medium over wavy surface

In this letter, water base nanofluid flow over wavy surface in a porous medium of spherical packing beds is investigated. The copper oxides particles are taken into account. These properties are rehabilitated when fluid interacts with porous walls. For porous medium, Dupuit–Forchheimer model; an extension of Darcy's law model is utilized. The natures of velocity and temperature profiles of nanofluid are discussed graphically whereas the values of convection heat transfer coefficient in the presence of different nanoparticles concentrations in porous medium is presented in tabular form. The obtained results illustrate that convection heat transfer is improved by nanoparticles concentration but reduces when fluid attract to pores structured medium. On the other hand, when particles are added in fluid, convection heat transfer rate is improved but flow velocity is declined.

Predictions of Conjugate Heat Transfer in Turbulent Channel Flow Using Advanced Wall-Modeled Large Eddy Simulation Techniques

In this paper, advanced wall-modeled large eddy simulation (LES) techniques are used to predict conjugate heat transfer processes in turbulent channel flow. Thereby, the thermal energy transfer process involves an interaction of conduction within a solid body and convection from the solid surface by fluid motion. The approaches comprise a two-layer RANS–LES approach (zonal LES), a hybrid RANS–LES representative, the so-called improved delayed detached eddy simulation method (IDDES) and a non-equilibrium wall function model (WFLES), respectively. The results obtained are evaluated in comparison with direct numerical simulation (DNS) data and wall-resolved LES including thermal cases of large Reynolds numbers where DNS data are not available in the literature. It turns out that zonal LES, IDDES and WFLES are able to predict heat and fluid flow statistics along with wall shear stresses and Nusselt numbers accurately and that are physically consistent. Furthermore, it is found that IDDES, WFLES and zonal LES exhibit significantly lower computational costs than wall-resolved LES. Since IDDES and especially zonal LES require considerable extra work to generate numerical grids, this study indicates in particular that WFLES offers a promising near-wall modeling strategy for LES of conjugated heat transfer problems. Finally, an entropy generation analysis using the various models showed that the viscous entropy production is zero inside the solid region, peaks at the solid–fluid interface and decreases rapidly with increasing wall distance within the fluid region. Except inside the solid region, where steep temperature gradients lead to high (thermal) entropy generation rates, a similar behavior is monitored for the entropy generation by heat transfer process.

NATURAL CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER AROUND MICROFIN ARRAYS

Microfin arrays with fin heights of 100 and 200 μm are fabricated, and natural convection around microfin arrays on a vertical surface is experimentally investigated. Microfins are fabricated by DRIE in a bulk silicon wafer. The array spacing investigated ranges from 30–360 μm, and the temperature difference between the wall temperature of the microfin array and the ambient temperature varies from 20–80 K. For comparison, minifin arrays with a fin height of 1 mm are also tested. The heat loss through the backside of the arrays was avoided by a symmetric design of fin arrays on the vertical surface. The convective heat transfer coefficients are measured and compared with the existing heat transfer correlation for the microfin arrays. It turns out that the heat transfer correlation for macrofin arrays is inadequate for the accurate estimation of the heat transfer rate in microscale systems. In addition, microfin and minifin arrays are also tested on a horizontal surface to examine the orientation effect at small scales.     

An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation into the Thermal Performance Characteristics of a Staggered Vertical Pin Fin Array Heat Sink with Assisting Mixed Convection in External and In-Duct Flow Configurations

A theoretical and experimental study was carried out on the thermal performance of a pin fin array heat sink. A theoretical model was utilized based on the success of prior research that has the capability of predicting the influence of various geometrical, thermal, and flow parameters on the effective thermal resistance of the heat sink. An experimental investigation was carried out for measuring the thermal performance of the heat sink, and the overall convective heat transfer coefficient for the fin bundle, including the thermal and flow bundle effect. Utilizing the new empirical correlations, theoretical predictions were made and experimentally validated for a wide range of parameters for combined forced and natural convection in the assisting flow configuration. Both the theoretical model and experimental data indicated the existence of optimal fin spacing.     

Visualization of transient natural convection heat transfer from a vertical rectangular fin

Experiments on thermal visualization of transient natural convection from short vertical rectangular fins were conducted using the technique of laser holographic interferometry. A sequence of infinite-fringe interferograms recorded for the heating regime of an aluminum fin demonstrates the effect of fin base heating on local convection coefficients and reveals alternating and oscillatory buoyancydriven flows similar to those over the top surface of heated horizontal plates. The effect of fin base heating results in greater uniformity of the local heat transfer coefficient along the fin. It also significantly reduces the steady-state heat transfer coefficients of short vertical fins compared to their transient values. Hence, the use of steady-state solutions for the design of short vertical fins operating in transient conditions may not introduce as much error as was previously thought.

Experimental investigation of subcooled flow boiling of a 50/50 ethylene glycol/water mixture in finned rectangular aluminum channels

Subcooled flow boiling heat transfer experiments were performed with a 50/50 ethylene glycol/water mixture in a finned aluminum channel. The channel represented a hybrid electric vehicle power electronic cold plate receiving a 50/50 mixture from the radiator at 105°C and 2 atmospheres. Experiments used a range of mixture flow rates and both top- and bottom-heating situations. Boiling curves were generated, and subcooled flow boiling heat transfer coefficients were determined including the test channel fin effects. Subcooled flow boiling heat transfer coefficients showed a 25–30% increase compared to single-phase convection.     

Entropy Analysis of the Thermal Convection of Nanosuspension within a Chamber with a Heat-Conducting Solid Fin

Heat transport augmentation in closed chambers can be achieved using nanofluids and extended heat transfer surfaces. This research is devoted to the computational analysis of natural convection energy transport and entropy emission within a closed region, with isothermal vertical borders and a heat-conducting solid fin placed on the hot border. Horizontal walls were assumed to be adiabatic. Control relations written using non-primitive variables with experimentally based correlations for nanofluid properties were computed by the finite difference technique. The impacts of the fin size, fin position, and nanoadditive concentration on energy transfer performance and entropy production were studied. It was found that location of the long fin near the bottom wall allowed for the intensification of convective heat transfer within the chamber. Moreover, this position was characterized by high entropy generation. Therefore, the minimization of the entropy generation can define the optimal location of the heat-conducting fin using the obtained results. An addition of nanoparticles reduced the heat transfer strength and minimized the entropy generation.
