Numerical Simulation of Swirl Flow Characteristics of CO2 Hydrate Slurry by Short Twisted Band

The development of oil and gas resources is gradually transferring to the deep sea, and the hydrate plugging of submarine pipelines at high pressures and low temperatures is becoming an important problem to ensure the safety of pipeline operations. The swirl flow is a new method to expand the boundary of hydrate safe flow. Numerical simulation of the hydrate slurry flow characteristics in a horizontal pipeline by twisted band has been carried out, and the flow of CO₂ hydrate slurry in low concentration has been simulated by the RSM and DPM models. The results show that the heat transfer efficiency is also related to Re and particle concentration. The velocity distribution has the form of symmetrical double peaks, and the peaks finally merge at the center of the pipeline. Vortexes firstly appear on both sides of the edge of the twisted band, and then move to the middle part of the twisted band. Finally, the vortex center almost coincides with the velocity center. The rotation direction of hydrate particles is the same as the twisted direction of the twisted band, twist rate (Y) is smaller, Re is larger, and the symmetric vortex lines merge farther away. The initial swirl number is mainly related to Y, but not Re. The swirl flow attenuates exponentially, and its attenuation rate is mainly related to Re, but not Y. Compared with ordinary pipelines, the swirl flow can obviously improve the transportation distance of hydrate slurry.

Laminar Heat Transfer Augmentation through A Square Duct and Circular Tube Fitted with Twisted Tapes

Experimental studies on friction factor and heat transfer characteristics for the laminar flow of ethylene glycol in a square duct fitted with twisted tapes of different twist ratios under nearly uniform wall temperature conditions are reported in this article.

The augmented friction factor and Nusselt number for a square duct is about 1.9 and 2.10 times higher than that for an augmented circular tube.

Visualization of molten pools and invisible laser beam profiles using an ultraviolet CCD camera

Experiments were conducted on the effects of a wall distance and velocity ratio of suction flow to injection flow on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a circular impinging jet accompanying an annular suction flow. As a result, it is found that in the case of accompanying suction flow, a higher Nusselt number can be obtained compared with in the case without suction flow, under a condition of the wall distance within eight times of injection pipe diameter from the near pipe exit edge. In addition, when the effect of velocity ratio is examined at a fixed arbitrary wall distance, it is found that there exists an optimum velocity ratio where the Nusselt number becomes the maximum. It is shown that these heat transfer characteristics are closely associated with the fluctuating velocity and the mean velocity in the two-dimensional velocity field observed by Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV).

Variable Fluid Property Effect on Heat Transfer and Frictional Flow Characteristics of Water Flowing through Microchannel

The effects of temperature-dependent viscosity and thermal conductivity on heat transfer and frictional flow characteristics of water flowing through a microchannel are numerically investigated in this work. The hydrodynamically and thermally developing flow with no-slip, notemperature jump, and constant wall heat flux boundary condition is numerically studied using 2D continuum-based conservation equations. A significant deviation in Nusselt number from conventional theory is observed due to flattening of axial velocity profile due to temperaturedependent viscosity variation. The Nusselt number shows a significant deviation from conventional theory due to flattening of the radial temperature profile due to temperature-dependent thermal conductivity variation. It is noted that the deviation in Nusselt number from conventional theory is maximum for combined temperature-dependent viscosity and thermal conductivity variations. The effects of temperature-dependent viscosity and thermal conductivity on the Fanning friction factor are also investigated. Additionally, the effects of variable fluid properties on Poiseuille number, Prandtl number, and Peclet number are also investigated.

Infrared thermography as a tool for thermal surface flow visualization

Infrared (IR) thermography is a two-dimensional, non-contact technique of temperature measurement which can be usefully exploited in a vast variety of heat transfer industrial applications as well as research fields. The present work focuses attention on thermal surface flow visualizations of several types of fluid flow studied by means of the IR imaging system and in particular: the flow over a delta wing at angle of attack; the flow generated by a disk rotating in still air; air jets impinging on a flat wall; the flow inside a 180deg turn in astatic channel with, or without, turbulence promoters; the flow inside a 180deg turn in arotating square channel. Each flow visualization is illustrated through thermographic images and/or Nusselt number maps. The emphasis is on the capability of the infrared system to study: laminar-to-turbulent transition and location of primary and secondary vortices over the delta wing at angle of attack; the spiral vortical structure developing at transition over the disk; azimuthal structures arising for certain jet conditions; the influence of the channel aspect ratio (width to height ratio) on the heat transfer coefficient distribution along the 180deg turn, as well as the influence of ribs, in the case ofstatic channel; the influence of rotation for the rotating channel.

Heat Transfer in Oscillating Circular Pipes

An experimental investigation was made to study heat transfer in a pipe which is oscillated about an axis that is parallel to, but offset from, the pipe axis. Air was used as working fluid. The experimental setup was designed so as to provide oscillating motion of a test pipe. The measurement systems were installed on the oscillating section. For both steady and oscillating flows, the bulk air temperature and wall temperature, pressure drop, and frequency were measured. The parameters for this study were chosen as Reynolds number from 5,000 to 20,000 and oscillating frequencies from 10 to 20 Hz. The variations of Nusselt number versus these parameters were determined and presented graphically. Heat transfer enhancement of 42% was achieved at constant pumping power for oscillatory flow.     

Flow and Heat Transfer Characteristics of in-Line Impinging Jets With Cross-Flow At Short Jet-To-Plate Distance

The aim of this research is to numerically and experimentally study the flow and heat transfer characteristics of in-line impinging jets in cross-flow. The jets from a row of round orifices are perpendicularly impinged on the inner surface of a rectangular wind tunnel at a short distance between the orifice plate and impinged surface (H) of 2D, where D is a diameter of the orifice. The jet velocity was fixed corresponding to Re = 13,400 for all experiments, and the cross-flow velocity was varied at three different velocity ratios (velocity ratio, jet velocity/cross-flow velocity) of 3, 5, and 7. The heat transfer characteristic was visualized using a thermochromic liquid crystal sheet, and the Nusselt number distribution was evaluated by an image processing technique. The flow pattern on the impinged surface was also visualized by an oil film technique. The numerical simulation was used to explore a flow interaction between the impinging jets and cross-flow. The results indicated that Nusselt number peak increased by the increasing cross-flow velocity for short jet-to-plate distance. For the range determined, the maximum local Nusselt number peak was obtained at VR = 3 as the consequence of high velocity and high turbulence kinetic energy of jet impingement.     

Flow and Heat Transfer in Rough Micro Steel Tubes

Abstract

This article investigates the flow and heat transfer characteristics in micro steel tubes with inner diameters of 168 μm, 399 μm and relative roughness of 3.5% and 2.7%, respectively, by measuring the friction factors and the Nusselt number from laminar state to transitional state. Experiments show that the experimental Nusselt numbers are less than those predicted by the classical laminar correlation due to the effect of the variation of the thermophysical properties with temperature when Reynolds number is low. As the Reynolds number is higher than 800, the experimental Nusselt number are 25–50% higher than the predictions of the classical laminar and transitional correlations due to the effects of the roughness and the entrance length. The transition from laminar to turbulent flow occurs at the Reynolds number of 1,100–1,500.
