Simulated Effects of Physical Parameters on Heat Transfer of Intumescent Fire-Retardant Polypropylene during Burning

Physical properties of intumescent materials are important parameters as input data in modeling the combustion behavior of intumescent materials in a fire. In this paper, effects of important physical properties on heat transfer of intumescent materials during burning are simulated based on a combustion model of intumescent fire-retardant polypropylene (IFR-PP) materials. Physical properties selected are thermal conductivity of virgin material and char layer, specific heat capacity of virgin material, density of virgin material, surface emissivity of virgin material and char layer, and intumescent temperature. Predicted temperature curves at a location 9 mm from the bottom of the IFR-PP material at an incident heat flux of 50 kW/m² are shown for the varied physical parameters values. The results show that these varied parameter values can affect the heat transfer of materials remarkably.     

Experimental and numerical study of the effect of conjugate heat transfer on film cooling

Combined convection heat transfer and thermal conduction for film cooling of a flat plate with 45° ribs on one wall was investigated experimentally and numerically. The flat plate surface temperature was measured using thermochromic liquid crystals. The results show that the film cooling is the main mechanism for the local cooling with a very low thermal conductivity while the convection heat transfer of the coolant in the coolant channel is the dominant heat transfer mechanism for the high thermal conductivity plate, with both film cooling and convection heat transfer by the coolant being important with medium thermal conductivity walls.     

Mechanism of heat transfer in heterogeneous droplets of water under intense radiant heating

Thermocouple measurements of temperature have been performed at three main points of heterogeneous water droplet–high-temperature gases system: on the surface and in the depth of a solid inclusion, as well as on the free surface of the water droplet. Investigations have been carried out for water droplets of an initial volume of 5–15 μl with single inclusions of cubic graphite particles of a typical size of 1 mm. The gas temperature varied from 700 K to 1200 K, which corresponds to the main practical applications: thermal purification of water from solid and liquid impurities, fire extinguishing, treatment of heat-loaded surfaces of power equipment, etc. A hypothesis about the dominant role of radiant heat transfer in vaporization within heterogeneous water droplets has been grounded. It has been shown that in a short period (a few seconds), the surface temperature of an opaque solid inclusion within a droplet can reach the boiling point of water. A significant change in the optical properties of water with increasing temperature has been revealed, i.e., water became partially transparent to the infrared radiation. Presence of an opaque heterogeneous inclusion enhances this effect due to intensification of the heating of the water film. The heat and mass transfer characteristics obtained in the experiments were used for designing a model that takes into account the radiative properties of water film and adequately reproduces the results of thermocouplemeasurements. Based on the findings of the investigations, a conclusion has been formulated that models of high-temperature evaporation of water droplets should be developed with due account of changes in the optical properties of water and formation of a vapor buffer layer around inclusions.     

Effect of nanofluids on thin film evaporation in microchannels

A thin film evaporation model based on the augmented Young–Laplace equation and kinetic theories was developed to describe the nanofluid effects on the extended evaporating meniscus in a microchannel. The nanofluid effects include the structural disjoining pressure, a thin porous coating layer at the surface formed by the nanoparticle deposition and the thermophysical property variations compared with the base fluid. The results show that the nanofluid thermal conductivity enhancement mainly due to the Brownian motion tends to greatly increase the liquid film thickness and the thin film heat transfer. The structural disjoining pressure effect tends to enhance the nanofluid spreading capability and the thin film evaporation. The nanoparticle-deposited porous coating layer improves the surface wettability while significantly reducing the thin film evaporation with increasing layer thickness due to the thermal resistance across this layer. The nanofluid thermal conductivity enhancement together with the structural disjoining pressure effect can not counteract the thermal resistance effects of the porous coating layer when the coating layer thickness is sufficiently large.     

Modeling the Effect of Thermophysical Properties on Pyrolysis of Intumescent Fire-retardant Materials

Thermophysical properties of intumescent fire-retardant (IFR) materials are important input parameters to simulate the pyrolysis process of IFR materials in fire scenarios. In this article, the effects of the thermophysical properties on pyrolysis of IFR materials are simulated based on a pyrolysis model of IFR materials. The selected thermophysical properties here are the specific heat capacity of the virgin material, thermal conductivity of the virgin material and char layer, heat of decomposition, density of virgin material, intumescent temperature, and surface emissivity of virgin material and char layer. Simulated mass loss rates (MLR) for the IFR materials at an incident heat flux of 50 kW/m² are investigated for the varied thermophysical parameter values. The results show that changes in these property values can affect the pyrolysis behavior of materials profoundly. Comparison with experimental results indicates that the simulations of MLR are in reasonably good agreement with the experiments.     

Experimental study of heat transfer processes for macroparticles in a dusty plasma

The results of the experimental study of heat transfer processes in liquid dusty structures are reported. The experiments have been carried out for aluminum oxide particles in an rf discharge plasma. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of the dusty plasma component have been determined by analyzing the steady and unsteady heat transfer processes. The temperature dependence has been obtained for these quantities, which is in qualitative agreement with numerical simulation results for a simple one-atomic fluid.

Unsteady radiative nanofluid flow near a vertical heated wavy surface with temperature-dependent viscosity

In the present contribution, a numerical treatment is provided to describe unsteady nanofluid flow near a vertical heated wavy surface. A memorable feature of the present work is the investigation of nanofluid flow associated with thermal radiation that acts as a catalyst for heat transfer rates. Likewise, the effectiveness of variable viscosity is examined as it controls fluid flow as well as heat transfer. It is necessary to study heat and mass transfer for complex geometries because predicting heat and mass transfer for irregular surfaces is a topic of fundamental importance, and irregular surfaces frequently appear in many applications, such as flat-plate solar collectors and flat-plate condensers in refrigerators. A simple coordinate transformation from the wavy surface into a flat one is employed. The non-dimensional boundary layer equations that governing both heat transfer and nanofluid flow phenomena along the wavy surface are solved via a powerful numerical approach called the implicit Chebyshev pseudospectral (ICPS) method with Mathematica code. A comparison graph of the current numerical computation and the published data shows a perfect match. Figures depict the effect of various physical parameters on nanofluid velocities, temperature, salt concentration, nanoparticle concentration, skin friction, Sherwood, nanoparticle Sherwood, and Nusselt numbers. According to the numerical results, increasing the variable viscosity parameter value causes a drop in the local skin friction coefficient value and an increase in the steady-state axial nanofluid velocity profile near the wavy surface. Furthermore, as heat radiation is increased, the local Nusselt number decreases but the nanoparticle Sherwood number increases.

Simultaneous investigation of MHD and convective phenomena on time-dependent flow of Carreau nanofluid with variable properties: Dual solutions

In countless applications, there is a thoughtful necessity for augmenting the poor thermal conductivity of conventional liquids to improve effectual heat transfer liquids. Nanofluids are fluids interruptions of nanoparticles and broad scrutiny have been presented on nanoliquid solicitations in heat transfer progressions. The intention of this exertion is to scrutinize the dual nature solutions of unsteady magnetite Carreau nanofluid influenced by porous stretching/shrinking surface. The phenomena of heat and mass transfer have been established in the manifestation of combined convective conditions with heat sink/source and variable thermal conductivity. By utilizing compatible conversions to rehabilitate the structure of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) into nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) which were then elucidated numerically via bvp4c. Under the impact of diverse somatic parameters the graphical depiction of all the probable dual solutions of velocity, temperature, concentration, skin-friction coefficient, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are scrutinized. These outcomes specify that the liquid velocity display similar tendency for both upper and lower solutions and decline for unsteadiness parameter, while it enhance for Weissenberg number.     

Nano liquid-metal fluid as ultimate coolant

We proposed for the first time the concept of the nano liquid-metal fluid, aiming to establish an engineering route to make the highest conductive coolant. Using several widely accepted theoretical models for characterizing the nano fluid, the thermal conductivity enhancement of the liquid-metal fluid due to addition of more conductive nano particles was predicted. Further, the effects of particle size, cluster of nano particle, solid-like layer due to adsorption, volume fraction and particle types were evaluated. Having the highest conductivity, being electromagnetically drivable, the liquid metal with low melting point is expected to be an idealistic base fluid for making super conductive solution which may lead to the ultimate coolant in a wide variety of heat transfer enhancement area.     

Upshot of Chemical Species and Nonlinear Thermal Radiation on Oldroyd-B Nanofluid Flow Past a Bi-directional Stretched Surface with Heat Generation/Absorption in a Porous Media

A three-dimensional mathematical model is developed to examine the flow of nonlinear thermal radiation Oldroyd-B nanofluid past a bidirectional linearly stretched surface in a porous medium. The flow is induced by temperature dependent thermal conductivity, chemical reaction and convective heat and mass conditions. Novel characteristics of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are accompanied by magnetohydrodynamic and heat generation/absorption.Self-similar transformations are employed to convert the system of nonlinear partial differential equations to a system of ordinary differential equations with high nonlinearity and are solved by strong analytic technique named as Homotopy Analysis method(HAM). Effects of varied arising parameters on involved distributions are reflected through graphical illustrations. From this study, it is perceived that strong magnetic field hinders the fluid's motion and leads to rise in temperature that eventually lowers heat transfer rate from the surface. Further, decrease in heat transfer rate is also observed for enhanced values of thermal radiation parameter. To validate our results, a comparison with already published paper in limiting case is also given and results are found in excellent oncurrence; hence reliable results are being presented.

Comparisons of Performances of a Flat Tube Bank Fin Model Mounted Vortex Generators and the Real Heat Exchanger

Abstract

In this article, we compared the model results obtained by the naphthalene sublimation method with the results obtained by experiments with the real heat exchanger based on the model used in the naphthalene sublimation experiment. The results reveal that in the Reynolds number region studied in the present article, the experimental results obtained by naphthalene sublimation agree with the experimental data of the real heat exchanger under the working conditions within a 10% deviation. The heat/mass transfer coefficient obtained with an isothermal condition using naphthalene sublimation can be applied to the mixed thermal boundary condition. The effects of mounted and punched vortex generators on thermal-hydraulic performances are limited to the configuration studied in this article.     

Analytical prediction of forced convective heat transfer of fluids embedded with nanostructured materials (nanofluids)

Nanofluids are a new class of heat transfer fluids developed by suspending nanosized solid particles in liquids. Larger thermal conductivity of solid particles compared to the base fluid such as water, ethylene glycol, engine oil etc. significantly enhances their thermal properties. Several phenomenological models have been proposed to explain the anomalous heat transfer enhancement in nanofluids. This paper presents a systematic literature survey to exploit the characteristics of nanofluids, viz., thermal conductivity, specific heat and other thermal properties. An empirical correlation for the thermal conductivity of Al₂O₃ + water and Cu + water nanofluids, considering the effects of temperature, volume fraction and size of the nanoparticle is developed and presented. A correlation for the evaluation of Nusselt number is also developed and presented and compared in graphical form. This enhanced thermophysical and heat transfer characteristics make fluids embedded with nanomaterials as excellent candidates for future applications.
