高功率激光器喷雾冷却的实验研究

 以水为冷却介质,采用Spray公司的TG0.3机械雾化实心圆锥喷嘴,在体积通量为0.044,0.049和0.053 m³/(m²·s)情况下,对刻有不同微结构槽道冷却面的无沸腾区换热性能进行实验研究。结果表明：刻有微结构的表面可明显增强换热效果;壁面刻有高为0.2 mm的微结构槽道且壁面温度为52 ℃时,体积通量为0.044 m³/(m²·s则热流可达260 W/cm²,通量为0.053 m³/(m²·s则散热功率高达376 W/cm²,完全可以满足当前高功率激光器的散热需求。对于光滑面以及槽肋高为0.1和0.2 mm的换热面,其换热能力随着体积通量的增加而增强;换热面高度为0.4 mm时,通量对换热的影响变得较微弱。微结构槽道不仅增加了换热面积,还有利于液膜扩散,减小液膜厚度,增强换热。在三种不同的流量通量下,高度为0.2 mm的微结构槽道换热性能最佳。     

Study on Ultra-fast Cooling Behaviors of Water Spray Cooled Stainless Steel Plates

Spray cooling is an effective tool to dissipate high heat fluxes from hot surfaces. This article thoroughly investigates the effect of thickness of a hot stainless steel plate on the cooling time, cooling rate, heat flux, and heat transfer coefficient under constant mass flow rate maintained at 1 MPa using water as the coolant. Cylindrical samples of stainless steel with constant diameter (D = 25 mm) and thickness (δ = 7.5, 12, 16.5, and 21 mm) were used in the present study. Critical droplet diameter to achieve an ultra-fast cooling rate of 300°C/s was estimated by using an analytical model for samples of varying thicknesses. The analytical model (one side spray cooling) showed good agreement with experimental results with a relative error of 3.2% in the plate thickness range of 1–12 mm. An increasing trend in maximum heat flux was found with increasing thickness of the plate. Maximum heat flux as high as 1,800 kW/m² was achieved for a 21-mm-thick sample. Heat transfer coefficients in the range 0.092–96.24 kW/m²K, 0.111–98.9 kW/m²K, 0.074–63.4 kW/m²K, and 0.127–55.63 kW/m²K were reported for sample of varying thicknesses in the present study. Limited published work is available with reference to water spray cooling dynamics and thickness of stainless steel plate. Therefore, the present study focuses on the correlation between the thickness of the plate and spray dynamics of water spray cooling.     

Heat transfer from a hot moving steel plate by using Cu-Al layered double hydroxide nanofluid based air atomized spray

The current research is focused on the cooling of a hot moving steel plate by using air atomized spray cooling technique. A new type of coolant, Cu-Al LDH nanofluid, has been prepared and used for heat flux removal. Preparation method of nanofluid and its characteristics has been reported. The cooling effectiveness is reported in terms of cooling rate by varying the concentration of nanofluid in five levels. The results indicate that the cooling rate increases at very low concentration of LDH with respect to base fluid. However, beyond a certain concentration a decreasing trend of cooling rate has been observed.

SPRAY COOLING OF HIGH TEMPERATURE METALS USING HIGH MASS FLUX INDUSTRIAL NOZZLES

Systematic experiments were conducted for the spray cooling of high-temperature stainless steel using three different types of industrial sprays: full cone and flat hydraulic nozzles and a flat air-mist nozzle. In the present study, a wide range of mass flux (1.5–30 kg/m²sec) is covered, which has never been thoroughly investigated before. Orientations with respect to gravity and spray angle were also explored.

The data have been analyzed and correlated. The results of this study will be important to the product quality control in industries by providing a good estimation of heat flux at different mass flux, spray types, and surface temperatures, especially for spray cooling of stainless steel and other metals with similar thermal properties.

本文对水平矩形槽道内湍流对流换热与发汗冷却进行了实验研究和数值模拟。实验结果表明:随着冷却气体流量的增加,发汗冷却壁面温度、局部对流换热系数和Nu数都迅速下降;在注入率为1％时,壁温下降了约40％,对流换热系数降低至50％左右。随着注入率的增大,壁面热流先是增加,在F=0.7％-0.8％左右时达到一个最大值,随后下降。St/St0随着注入率的增大而降低; St／St0的实验值与由已有关联式以及数值计算得到的值基本吻合。     

润滑油对基于制冷循环的喷雾冷却系统性能的影响

针对高功率固体激光器的散热需求,设计了一种基于制冷循环的喷雾冷却系统,并对其换热性能进行研究。由于制冷系统的压缩机需要润滑,冷却液中不可避免地会混有润滑油。润滑油会对冷却液的粘度、表面张力产生影响,并可能产生油膜,从而对冷却液的换热过程产生强化或抑制。因此,通过实验研究,分析了润滑油对喷雾冷却换热性能的影响。实验结果表明,冷却液中存在润滑油,会增大冷却液流经喷嘴过程中的阻力,减小流量,但根据本系统的应用情况,可以忽略;在低热流密度时,含有一定量的润滑油更有利于热源表面温度的均匀分布,高热流密度时,2%(质量分数)的含油量对温度分布不均的影响可以忽略;润滑油的存在可以提高临界热流密度,使得系统的散热能力得到提高,更有利于其在高功率固体激光器散热领域的应用。     

Experimental Investigation of Continual- and Intermittent-Spray Cooling

This work involved continual- and intermittent-spray cooling heat transfer experiments on a flat surface to study the effects of the spray cycle, duty ratio, and spray time. The spray droplet parameters were similar, while the heat transfer coefficients for continual-spray cooling were appreciably larger than those of intermittent-spray cooling for the same pressure; however, the heat dissipated per kilogram of water for the intermittent-spray cooling was larger, especially in the non-boiling region. The results show that an optimal spray cycle and optimal duty ratio make more efficient use of the coolant in intermittent-spray cooling.     

Effect of Coolant Temperature on the Condensation Heat Transfer in Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Applications

This article directly investigates the effect of a cooling medium's coolant temperature on the condensation of the refrigerant R-134a. The study presents an experimental investigation into condensation heat transfer, vapor quality, and pressure drop of R-134a flowing through a commercial annular helicoidal pipe under the severe climatic conditions of a Kuwait summer. The quality of the refrigerant is calculated using the temperature and pressure obtained from the experiment. Measurements were performed for refrigerant mass fluxes ranging from 50 to 650 kg/m²s, with a cooling water flow Reynolds number range of 950 to 15,000 at a fixed gas saturation temperature of 42°C and cooling wall temperatures of 5°C, 10°C, and 20°C. The data shows that with an increase of refrigerant mass flux, the overall condensation heat transfer coefficients of R-134a increased, and the pressure drops also increased. However, with the increase of mass flux of cooling water, the refrigerant-side heat transfer coefficients decreased. Using low mass flux in a helicoidal tube improves the heat transfer coefficient. Furthermore, selecting low wall temperature for the cooling medium gives a higher refrigerant-side heat transfer coefficient.

Optimum convective heat transfer coefficient for diode-pumped laser slabs

It is important for laser designers to study the characteristics of heat transfer from the laser crystal slab to the coolant in high-power DPSS laser operations. We have simulated and obtained the optimum heat transfer coefficient and coolant flow rate for our cavity design, in which the circulating coolant is maintained at a constant temperature. It has been determined that the coolant temperature and the convective heat transfer coefficient (h) are important parameters in the thermal analysis. The coefficient h is affected by the coolant flow rate, the physical properties of the laser slab and the coolant and the pumping cavity geometry. Using analytical heat transfer equation, for cooling water temperature of 300 K, the optimum flow rate for our cavity geometry is found to be 390 cm³/s, corresponding to h=5 W/cm² K.     

The effect of oxide layer in case of novel coolant spray at very high initial surface temperature

The significant reduction of Leidenfrost effect during the cooling of high carbon steel plate by different potential cooling methodologies does not assure their successful implementation in the fast quenching of high carbon steel plate due to the formation of oxide layer of comparatively low thermal conductivity on the quenching surface. Therefore, the role of oxide layer in case of different potential cooling methodologies needs to be addressed. In the present study, the effect of oxide layer on heat transfer rate in case of upward, downward, and both upward and downward facing spray with additives has been investigated by conducting and comparing the heat transfer cooling data of an AISI 1020 plate with the AISI 304 plate. The comparison clearly depicts that the formation of oxide layer during cooling significantly hinders the heat transfer rate in nucleate boiling regime; however, the reverse phenomenon is observed in transition boiling regime. Among all the coolants, the least effect of oxide layer on enhancement is obtained in case of NaCl (0.4 M)-added water spray due to the deposition of salt on the evaporating surface. The X-ray diffraction analysis and the thickness of the formed oxide layer clearly assert that the coolant depicting minimum oxidation characteristic is preferred.

Single-Phase Convective Heat Transfer of Water and Aqua Ethylene Glycol Mixture in a Small-Diameter Tube

A tailor-made convective heat transfer test facility is constructed to study the single-phase convective heat transfer of deionized water and 30 vol% and 60 vol% aqua–ethylene glycol in a stainless steel tube of 4 mm in inner diameter and 1 m in length. The heat flux is varied between 1 and 4 kW·m^?2 and for mass flux ranging from 160 to 475 kg·m^?2 s^?1. The experiments were predominantly conducted only for laminar flow regime. Finally, the heat transfer coefficient is recorded and compared with the conventional theories. It is observed that the presence of ethylene glycol in water decreases the heat transfer coefficient by more than 50%, due to the decreased Reynolds number and thermal conductivity of the mixture.     

Influence of Streamwise Pitch on Local Heat Transfer Distribution for In-Line Arrays of Circular Jets with Spent Air Flow in Two Opposite Directions

Abstract

The effect of streamwise jet-to-jet spacing on local heat transfer distribution due to an in-line rectangular array of confined multiple circular air jets impinging on a surface parallel to the jet plate are experimentally studied. The length-to-diameter ratio of nozzles of the jet plate is 1.0. The flow, after impingement, is constrained to exit in two opposite directions from the confined passage formed between the jet plate and target plate. Mean jet Reynolds numbers based on the nozzle exit diameter (d) covered are 3,000, 5,000, 7,500, and 10,000; jet-to-plate distances studied are d, 2d, and 3d. Streamwise jet-to-jet distances of 3d, 4d, and 5d, and a constant spanwise pitch of 4d, are considered. The jet plates have ten spanwise rows in the streamwise direction and six jets in each spanwise row. The flat heat transfer surface is made of thin stainless-steel metal foil. Local temperature distribution on a target plate is measured using a thermal infrared camera. Wall static pressures in the streamwise direction are measured midway between the spanwise jets to estimate cross-flow velocities and individual jet velocities. The streamwise distribution of the jet flow and the cross flow is found to be least influenced by the streamwise pitch variation for the range of parameters considered during the present study. Heat transfer characteristics are explained partially on the basis of flow distribution. The cooling performance, based on the strip-averaged Nusselt number per unit mass flow rate of coolant per unit area of cooled surface, indicates deterioration for lower streamwise pitch and higher jet-to-plate distance.

A GENERAL HEAT TRANSFER CORRELATION FOR IMPACTING WATER SPRAYS ON HIGH-TEMPERATURE SURFACES

A method for the general correlation of heat transfer effectiveness for sprays impacting vertically downward on a high-temperature surface has been developed. A dimensional analysis showed that the mass velocity of the spray can be substituted for the droplet velocity in the droplet Reynolds and Weber numbers, greatly improving the correlation with the heat flux data in the film boiling regime. The spray Reynolds number, defined as Re s = Gd/ w , and spray Weber number, We s = G 2 d/ 𝜌 σ , were shown to correlate data from many authors covering a wide range of spray parameters. This correlation supports the results of previous parametric experiments, and is analogous to correlations developed for the critical heat flux of sprays and circular jets. Dependence of the heat transfer performance on spray mass flux and droplet diameter represents the influence of the overall heat transfer capacity of the spray as well as the contribution of droplet interactions. The Leidenfrost temperature of the spray was also shown to be dependent on the spray Weber number.

Experimental Investigation of Heat Transfer in Two-phase Flow Boiling

In this article, an experimental investigation is performed to measure the boiling heat transfer coefficient of water flow in a microchannel with a hydraulic diameter of 500 μm. Experimental tests are conducted with heat fluxes ranging from 100 to 400 kW/m², vapor quality from 0 to 0.2, and mass fluxes of 200, 400, and 600 kg/m²s. Also, this study has modified the liquid Froude number to present a flow pattern transition toward an annular flow. Experimental results show that the flow boiling heat transfer coefficient is not dependent on mass flux and vapor quality but on heat flux to a certain degree. The measured heat transfer coefficient is compared with a few available correlations proposed for macroscales, and it is found that previous correlations have overestimated the flow boiling heat transfer coefficient for the test conditions considered in this work. This article proposes a new correlation model regarding the boiling heat transfer coefficient in mini- and microchannels using boiling number, Reynolds number, and modified Froude number.     

雾化喷射冷却的机理及模型研究

雾化喷射冷却的换热机理十分复杂,目前其研究还很不成熟。本文从喷射雾滴的特性参数出发,以被冷却表面上形成的喷射液膜为对象,考虑了冷却液体向环境的散热,建立质量、能量守恒方程,得到半经验半解析的雾化喷射换热模型。其中,本文提出真换热系数和显换热系数的概念,认为显换热系数受空间散热影响,而真换热系数只与喷雾动量有关。最后设计了雾化喷射局部换热实验,对模型进行检验,结果表明,该模型能够较好地符合实验所得的换热系数及加热面表面温度沿喷射半径的分布趋势。
