Heat transfer solutions in laminar co-current flow of immiscible liquids

Thermal entry region solutions are analytically determined for horizontal, co-current laminar flow of immiscible liquids in direct contact, inside circular tubes and parallel plate channels. The related eigenvalue problem for such a composite media is readily solved by extending the ideas in the recently advanced sign-count method. It is assumed a core-annular flow configuration for circular tubes and sheat-core flow for the parallel plates channel, without consideration of interface instabilities and stratified flow. First, the velocity problem is solved for fully developed flow and pumping power expressions established for different operating conditions. Then, the temperature problem is analytically handled to yield expressions for quantities of practical interest such as total heat exchange rates, along the duct length and, again, for different flow rates and pressure drop requirements. The analysis is illustrated through consideration of an application dealing with pumping of a very viscous oil with the addition of an external thin layer of a less viscous fluid (water). Pumping power and total heat exchange are then evaluated for both geometries and critically compared to the single fluid flow problem.Hier sind Lösungen für die thermische Eintritts-strecke von horizontalen, laminaren Gleichströmungen in unvermischbaren Flüssigkeiten, die in direktem Kontakt untereinander sind, analytisch bestimmt worden. Die Lösungen gelten für Gleichströmungen in Röhren und in parallelen flachen Kanälen. Das betreffende Eigenwertproblem für solch ein zusammengesetztes Medium ist vollkommen mit dem Gedanken des kürzlich weiterentwickelten Zeichenzählverfahrens gelöst worden. Für die Rohre sind kreisring- und kernförmige Strömungen und für die parallelen Plattenkanäle Schichtkernströmungen angenommen worden. Hierbei ist die Grenzflächeninstabilität nicht in Betracht gezogen worden. Als erstes ist das Geschwindigkeitsproblem für eine vollkommen entwickelte Strömung gelöst und es sind Ausdrücke für die Pumpleistung für verschiedene Betriebsbedingungen ermittelt worden. Dann ist das Temperaturproblem analytisch behandelt worden, um Ausdrücke für die Größen von praktischem Interesse zu erzielen, wie die gesamte Wärmeaustauschrate über die Kanallänge für verschiedene Strömungsgeschwindigkeiten und Druckverlustanforderungen. Die Berechnung ist durch die Betrachtung eines Anwendungsbeispiels veranschaulicht worden, bei dem sehr zähflüssiges Öl mit einer zusätzlichen äußeren, dünnen Schicht, die weniger zähflüssig ist, gepumpt wurde. Die Pumpleistung und der gesamte Wärmeaustausch sind für beide Geometrien ausgewertet und kritisch mit dem einfachen Strömungsproblem von Fluiden verglichen worden.     

Heat transfer in vertical annular laminar flow of two immiscible liquids

The paper investigates heat transfer in annular laminar undisturbed flow of two immiscible liquids, with constant heat-flux generated at the wall of the tube. It presents an analytical solution for the fully developed temperature field. This is used to obtain a more general solution from a model, describing the temperature field as a superposition of the fully developed and the developing fields. This superposition model is solved by an orthogonal collocation method. An asymptotic model for short entry lengths is also described. Calculations for a kerosene-water system, show that the superposition solution converges to the entrance solution below 100 diameters and converges asymptotically to the solution of the fully developed temperature field beyond 5000 diameters. The effect of the wavy interface is assessed experimentally for annular kerosene-water flow, by comparing predicted and measured temperature profiles. It is found that experimental profiles are considerably flatter and measured Nusselt numbers for the kerosene phase are accordingly higher by 40–320% as compared to the undisturbed flow analyses.     

A note on co-current laminar flows of two immiscible elastico-viscous liquids

Summary An analysis is presented of steady (isothermal) co-current laminar flows of two immiscible elasticoviscous liquids in cylindrical channels to include (i) unidirectional stratified flow with ripple-free, plane liquid interface, and (ii) concentric-layered swirling flow with ripple-free cylindrical liquid interface. The general conditions are derived for such two-phase channel flows to be physically realizable. It is shown that, whereas (under certain circumstances)single-phase laminar flows are physically possible,two-phase flows, on the other hand, of liquids of the same class may not be. But liquids of theRoberts type (Roberts 1953), with a normal stress difference equivalent to an extra simple tension along the streamlines in simple shearing, are capable of steady unidirectional flowin all circumstances (whether in single or two-phase flow), though they are not in a privileged position so far astwo-phase swirling flows are concerned.

Oscillating flows in capillaries filled with immiscible liquids

Hydrodynamic flows generated by mechanical vibrations of a capillary filled with immiscible liquids are investigated. Air bubbles are contained at the hermetically sealed ends of the capillary. Equations for the change in the volumes of the air bubbles as functions of time and velocity distribution in the liquids are obtained for the case when the radius of the capillary is much less than the lengths of the liquid columns. Results of numerical calculations are given for a capillary filled with two liquids: water and mercury. Amplitude-frequency dependences of the change in volumes of the air bubbles are constructed which have a resonance nature. Graphs of the dependence of the velocity of the water and the mercury on the radial coordinate at different times are given.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 5, pp. 13–18, September–October, 1987.     

Asymptotic finite element method for boundary value problems

The Asymptotic Finite Element method for improvement of standard finite element solutions of perturbation equations by the addition of asymptotic corrections to the right hand side terms is presented. It is applied here to 1-D and 2-D diffusion–convection equations and to non-linear similarity equations. Excellent results were obtained without the a priori use of special trial and test functions. Theoretical expectations were confirmed.     

Precise integration method for solving singular perturbation problems

This paper presents a precise method for solving singularly perturbed boundary-value problems with the boundary layer at one end. The method divides the interval evenly and gives a set of algebraic equations in a matrix form by the precise integration relationship of each segment. Substituting the boundary conditions into the algebraic equations, the coefficient matrix can be transformed to the block tridiagonal matrix. Considering the nature of the problem, an efficient reduction method is given for solving singular perturbation problems. Since the precise integration relationship introduces no discrete error in the discrete process, the present method has high precision. Numerical examples show the validity of the present method.     

The perturbation finite element method for solving problems with nonlinear materials

The perturbation method is one of the effective methods for so-lving problems in nonlinear continuum mechanics.It has been de-veloped on the basis of the linear analytical solutions for the o-riginal problems.If a simple analytical solution cannot be ob-tained.we would encounter difficulties in applying this method tosolving certain complicated nonlinear problems.The finite ele-ment method appears to be in its turn a very useful means for sol-ving nonlinear problems,but generally it takes too much time incomputation.In the present paper a mixed approach,namely,theperturbation finite element method,is introduced,which incorpo-rates the advantages of the two above-mentioned methods and enablesus to solve more complicated nonlinear problems with great savingin computing time.Problems in the elastoplastic region have been discussed anda numerical solution for a plate with a central hole under tensionis given in this paper.

An efficient method for solving free-boundary diffusion problems

Summary A new method is introduced for solving free-boundary problems for the heat equation. The method is shown to be uniformly convergent both for first type and nonlinear second type boundary conditions. Approximate solutions are obtained by discretization of the time variable and recursive solution at each time step of classical heat conduction linear problems in slabs of known thickness. An error estimate is given. Numerical tests are presented in a few cases in which exact solutions are known.

Sommario Si introduce un nuovo metodo per la soluzione di problemi a contorno libero per l'equazione del calore. Si dimostra la convergenza uniforme del metodo sia per condizioni al contorno del primo tipo che per condizioni al contorno del secondo tipo non lineari. Le soluzioni approssimate sono ottenute discretizzando la variabile temporale e risolvendo ricorsivamente ad ogni passo un classico problema lineare di conduzione in uno strato di spessore noto. E' data una stima dell'errore. Per alcuni casi nei quali è nota la soluzione esatta sono presentate prove numeriche.
