Staggered arrays of dimples printed on opposite surfaces of a cooling channel is formulated numerically and optimized with
hybrid multi-objective evolutionary algorithm and Pareto optimal front. As Pareto optimal front produces a set of optimal
solutions, the trends of objective functions with design variables are predicted by hybrid multi-objective evolutionary algorithm.
The problem is defined by three non-dimensional geometric design variables composed of dimpled channel height, dimple print
diameter, dimple spacing, and dimple depth, to maximize heat transfer rate compromising with pressure drop. Twenty designs
generated by Latin hypercube sampling were evaluated by Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes solver and the evaluated objectives
were used to construct Pareto optimal front through hybrid multi-objective evolutionary algorithm. The optimum designs were
grouped by k-means clustering technique and some of the clustered points were evaluated by flow analysis. With increase in dimple depth,
heat transfer rate increases and at the same time pressure drop also increases, while opposite behavior is obtained for the
dimple spacing. The heat transfer performance is related to the vertical motion of the flow and the reattachment length in
the dimple. 相似文献

Many studies are performed by researchers about shell and tube heat exchanger (STHE) but the multi-objective particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique has never been used in such studies. This paper presents application of thermal-economic multi-objective optimization of STHE using PSO. For optimal design of a STHE, it was first thermally modeled using e-number of transfer units method while Bell–Delaware procedure was applied to estimate its shell side heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop. Multi objective PSO (MOPSO) method was applied to obtain the maximum effectiveness (heat recovery) and the minimum total cost as two objective functions. The results of optimal designs were a set of multiple optimum solutions, called ‘Pareto optimal solutions’. In order to show the accuracy of the algorithm, a comparison is made with the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) and MOPSO which are developed for the same problem. 相似文献

Turbulent pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics in tubes with three different kinds of internally longitudinal fin
patterns (interrupted wavy, sinusoidal wavy and plain) are numerically investigated for Re = 904–4,520. The channel velocity,
temperature, and turbulence fields are obtained to discern the mechanisms of heat transfer enhancement. Numerical results
indicate that the steady and spatially periodic growth and disruption of cross-sectional vortices occur near the tube/fin
walls along the streamwise locations. The thermal boundary layers near the tube/fin surfaces are thereby periodically interrupted,
with heat transfer near the recirculation zones being enhanced. The overall heat transfer coefficients in wavy channels are
higher than those in a plain fin channel, while with larger pressure drop penalties. At the same waviness, the interrupted
wavy fin tube could enhance heat transfer by 72–90%, with more than 2–4 times of pressure drop penalty. Among the fins studied,
the sinusoidal wavy fin has the best comprehensive performance. 相似文献

Correlation equations for optimum design of annular fins with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity are obtained in the
present work. The nonlinear fin equation which is associated with variable thermal conductivity condition is solved by Adomian
decomposition method that provides an analytical solution in the form of an infinite power series. The optimum radii ratio
of an annular fin which maximizes the heat transfer rate has been found as a function of Biot number and the fin volume for
a given thermal conductivity parameter describing the variation of the thermal conductivity. The fin volume is fixed to obtain
the dimensionless geometrical parameters of the fin with maximum heat transfer rate. The data from the present solutions is
correlated for a suitable range of Biot number and the fin volume. The simple correlation equations presented in this work
can assist for thermal design engineers for optimum design of annular fins with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity. 相似文献

Tube bank fin heat exchanger is one of the most compact heat exchangers, and it is widely used in industry equipments. The
flat tube bank fin heat exchangers with vortex generators (VGs) have significant good heat transfer performance, and are used
as radiators of locomotive. Here, we study heat transfer enhancement of a new fin where VGs are mounted on both surfaces of
the fin. The heat transfer performance of this pattern is evaluated by a numerical method, and the results are compared with
those obtained, under identical mass flow rate, when the VGs are mounted only on one surface of the fin. The results reveal
that using this new pattern the height of VGs can be reduced and still obtain satisfactory heat transfer enhancement, while
the pressure drop is reduced. The results also reveal that if VGs on one surface of the fin is determined, the locations where
VGs are mounted on other surface of the same fin are very important, with configurations studied in this paper, depending
on the value of Reynolds number, there exists an optimum location with which best heat transfer performance can be obtained. 相似文献

3D numerical simulation on fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics in multistage heat exchanger with slit fins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In this paper, a numerical investigation is performed for three-stage heat exchangers with plain plate fins and slit fins
respectively, with a three-dimensional laminar conjugated model. The tubes are arranged in a staggered way, and heat conduction
in fins is considered. In order to save the computer resource and speed up the numerical simulation, the numerical modeling
is carried out stage by stage. In order to avoid the large pressure drop penalty in enhancing heat transfer, a slit fin is
presented with the strip arrangement of “front coarse and rear dense” along the flow direction. The numerical simulation shows
that, compared to the plain plate fin heat exchanger, the increase in the heat transfer in the slit fin heat exchanger is
higher than that of the pressure drop, which proves the excellent performance of this slit fin. The fluid flow and heat transfer
performance along the stages is also provided. 相似文献

Three dimensional numerical studies were performed for laminar heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of wavy fin heat exchangers with elliptic/circular tubes by body-fitted coordinates system. The simulation results of circular tube were compared with the experiment data, then circular and elliptic (e = b/a = 0.6) arrangements with the same minimum flow cross-sectional area were compared. A max relative heat transfer gain of up to 30% is observed in the elliptic arrangement, and corresponding friction factor only increased by about 10%. The effects of five factors on wavy fin and elliptic tube heat exchangers were examined: Reynolds number (based on the smaller ellipse axis, 500 4000), eccentricity (b/a, 0.6 1.0), fin pitch (Fp/2b, 0.05 0.4), fin thickness (Ft/2b, 0.006 0.04) and tube spanwise pitch (S1/2b, 1.0 2.0). The results show that with the increasing of Reynolds number and fin thickness, decreasing of the eccentricity and spanwise tube pitch, the heat transfer of the finned tube bank are enhanced with some penalty in pressure drop. There is an optimum fin pitch (Fp/2b = 0.1) for heat transfer, but friction factor always decreases with increase of fin pitch. And when Fp/2b is larger than 0.25, it has little effects on heat transfer and pressure drop. The results were also analyzed from the view point of field synergy principle. It was found that the effects of the five factors on the heat transfer performance can be well described by the field synergy principle. 相似文献

Two-pass channels are used for internal cooling in a number of engineering systems e.g., gas turbines. Fluid travelling through
the curved path, experiences pressure and centrifugal forces, that result in pressure driven secondary motion. This motion
helps in moving the cold high momentum fluid from the channel core to the side walls and plays a significant role in the heat
transfer in the channel bend and outlet pass. The present study investigates using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), the
flow structure, heat transfer enhancement and pressure drop in a smooth channel with varying aspect ratio channel at different
divider-to-tip wall distances. Numerical simulations are performed in two-pass smooth channel with aspect ratio Win/H = 1:3 at inlet pass and Wout/H = 1:1 at outlet pass for a variety of divider-to-tip wall distances. The results show that with a decrease in aspect ratio
of inlet pass of the channel, pressure loss decreases. The divider-to-tip wall distance (Wel) not only influences the pressure drop, but also the heat transfer enhancement at the bend and outlet pass. With an increase
in the divider-to-tip wall distance, the areas of enhanced heat transfer shifts from side walls of outlet pass towards the
inlet pass. To compromise between heat transfer and pressure drop in the channel, Wel/H = 0.88 is found to be optimum for the channel under study. 相似文献

A numerical study has been conducted to examine the heat transfer from a metal foam-wrapped solid cylinder in cross-flow.
Effects of the key parameters including the free stream velocity and characteristics of metal foam such as porosity, permeability,
and form drag coefficient on heat and fluid flow are examined. Being a determining factor in pressure drop and heat transfer
increment, the porous layer thickness is changed systematically to observe that there is an optimum layer thickness beyond
which the heat transfer does not improve while the pressure drop continues to increase. This has been verified by the application
of Bejan’s Intersection of Asymptotes method. Results have been compared to those of a finned-tube heat exchanger to observe
much higher heat transfer rate with reasonable excess pressure drop leading to a higher area goodness factor for metal foam-wrapped
cylinder. 相似文献

Experiments were performed to investigate the effect of duct height on heat transfer enhancement of a surface affixed with arrays (7 × 7) of short rectangular plate fins of a co-rotating type pattern in the duct. An infrared imaging system is used to measure detailed distributions of the heat transfer at the endwall along with the fin base. An infrared camera of TVS 8000 with 160 × 120 point In–Sb sensor was used to measure the temperature distributions in order to calculate the local heat transfer coefficients of the representative fin regions. Pressure drop and heat transfer experiments were performed for a co-rotating fin pattern varying the duct height from 20?50 mm. The friction factor calculated from the pressure drop shows that comparatively larger friction occurs for the smaller duct cases and the friction factor slowly decreases with increasing Reynolds number. The effect of duct height on the area-averaged heat transfer results show that heat transfer initially increases with duct height and then finally decreases with increasing the duct height. Detailed heat transfer analysis and iso-heat transfer coefficient contour gives a clear picture of heat transfer characteristics of the overall surface. The relative performance graph indicates that a 25 mm duct is the optimum duct height for the highest thermal performance. In addition, a significant thermal enhancement, 2.8?3.8 times the smooth surface, can be achieved at lower Reynolds number with a co-rotating fin pattern in the duct. 相似文献

In the present work, the problem of optimizing the shape and the spacing of the fins of a thermal dissipator cooled by a fluid in laminar flow is studied. For a particular finned conduit, the velocity and temperature distributions on the transversal section are determined with the help of a finite element model and a global heat transfer coefficient is calculated. A polynomial lateral profile is proposed for the fins and the geometry is optimized in order to make the heat transfer coefficient as high as possible with the smallest dimensions or the lowest hydraulic resistance to the flow. The optimum fin profile and spacing, obtained by means of a genetic algorithm, are finally shown for different situations. Increases of 45% are obtained in the heat transfer coefficient referring to the maximum values which can be obtained with rectangular fin profiles. 相似文献

In the present paper, a plate and frame heat exchanger is considered. Multi-objective optimization using genetic algorithm
is developed in order to obtain a set of geometric design parameters, which lead to minimum pressure drop and the maximum
overall heat transfer coefficient. Vividly, considered objective functions are conflicting and no single solution can satisfy
both objectives simultaneously. Multi-objective optimization procedure yields a set of optimal solutions, called Pareto front,
each of which is a trade-off between objectives and can be selected by the user, regarding the application and the project’s
limits. The presented work takes care of numerous geometric parameters in the presence of logical constraints. A sensitivity
analysis is also carried out to study the effects of different geometric parameters on the considered objective functions.
Modeling the system and implementing the multi-objective optimization via genetic algorithm has been performed by MATLAB. 相似文献

In the present study, the potential of rectangular fins with 30° and 90° angle and 10 mm offset from the horizontal direction for heat transfer enhancement in a plate fin heat exchanger is numerically evaluated with conjugated heat transfer approach. The rectangular fins are mounted on the flat plate channel. The numerical computations are performed by solving a steady, three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equation and an energy equation by using Fluent software program. Air is taken as working fluid. The study is carried out at Re = 400 and inlet temperatures, velocities of cold and hot air are fixed as 300, 600 K and 1.338, 0.69 m/s, respectively. Colburn factor j versus Re design data is presented by using Fluent. The results show that the heat transfer is increased by 10 % at the exit of channel with fin angle of 30° when compared to channel without fin for counter flow. The heat transfer enhancement with fins of 30° and 90° for different values of Reynolds number with 300, 500 and 800 and for varying fin heights, fin intervals and also temperature distributions of fluids on the top and bottom surface of the channel are investigated for parallel and counter flow. 相似文献

This paper presents the comparative studies on the effect of duct height on heat transfer and flow behavior between co-angular
and co-rotating type finned surface in duct. Experiments were performed to investigate the effect of duct height on heat transfer
enhancement of a surface affixed with arrays (7 × 7) of short rectangular plate fins of a co-angular and a co-rotating type
pattern in the duct. An infrared imaging system with the camera of TVS 8000 was used to measure the temperature distributions
to calculate the local heat transfer coefficients of the representative fin regions. Pressure drop and heat transfer experiments
were performed for both types of fin pattern varying the duct to fin height ratio (H
d/H
f) of 2.0–5.0. The friction factor calculated from the pressure drop shows that friction factor decreases with increasing the
duct to fin height ratio (H
d/H
f) regardless of fin pattern and this is expected because the larger friction occurs for smaller duct to fin height ratios.
Detailed heat transfer distribution gives a clear picture of heat transfer characteristics of the overall surface as well
as the influence of the duct height. In addition, different flow behavior and flow structure developed by both patterns were
visualized by the smoke flow visualization technique. 相似文献

Wing-type vortex generators for fin-and-tube heat exchangers 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The effect of wing-type vortex generators on heat transfer and pressure drop of a fin-and-tube heat exchanger element was investigated. Local heat transfer was measured by liquid crystal thermography on the fin in the Reynolds number range of 600–2700. Flow losses were estimated from the measured pressure drop of an element. Delta winglets were used as vortex generators. Four fin-and-tube configurations were tested, an inline and a staggered arrangement, each with plain fins and with fins with a pair of vortex generators behind each tube. For the inline tube arrangement the vortex generators increase the heat transfer by 55–65% with a corresponding increase of 20–45% in the apparent friction factor. Results indicate that the vortex generators have the potential to reduce considerably the size and mass of heat exchangers for a given heat load. 相似文献

An experimental study was carried out to investigate enhancement of heat transfer in compact heat exchanger by keeping pressure drop constant in a given range. Two different test matrices, cylindrical and triangular, used to find the optimum ribs were compared with a smooth channel. The investigation was performed with both laminar and turbulent forced flow for Reynolds numbers from 250 to 7000. The geometric parameters, in order to satisfied manufacturer demands, were fixed at p/e=6.67 and the wall temperature was held constant at 50°C. The technique of holographic interferometry was used to determine the temperature distribution in the test duct. Velocity distribution was measured using laser doppler anemometer techniques. For comparison the technique of global measurement was also used. The results revealed that cylindrical ribs are optimum heat transfer for conversion of pressure drop. An 8% experimental error was found in global measurement compared to holographic interferometry. 相似文献

A rotating channel with staggered pin‐fins is formulated numerically and optimized for performance (heat transfer/required pumping power) using a Kriging meta‐model and hybrid multi‐objective evolutionary algorithm. Two design variables related to cooling channel height, pin diameter, and spacing between the pins are selected for optimization, and two‐objective functions related to the heat transfer and friction loss are employed. A design of experiment is performed, and 20 designs are generated by Latin hypercube sampling. The objective function values are evaluated using a Reynolds‐averaged Navier–Stokes solver, and a Kriging model is constructed to obtain a Pareto‐optimal front through a multi‐objective evolutionary algorithm. Rotation in a cooling channel with staggered pin‐fins induces Coriolis force that causes a heat transfer discrepancy between the trailing (pressure) and leading (suction) surfaces, with a higher Nusselt number on the trailing surface. The tradeoff between the two competing objective functions is determined, and the distribution of the Pareto‐optimal solutions in the design space is discussed through k‐means clustering. In the optimal designs, with a decrease in spacing between the pins, heat transfer is enhanced whereas friction loss is increased. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Heat/mass transfer and pressure drop in a triangular-rib-roughened rectangular channel 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

In this paper, the heat/mass transfer analogy was used to investigate the heat transfer and pressure drop in a square channel with triangular ribs on its two opposite walls. Reynolds number varied from 1 × 104 to 7 × 104; the dimensionless heights of the triangular ribs H/W were 0.04, 0.07, and 0.1; and their dimensionless pitches S/W were 0.45, 0.63, 1.0, 1.37, 1.55, and 2.1. Experimental results showed that the heat transfer coefficients of the wall with triangular rib were about 1 to 2.3 times larger than those of a smooth-channel wall, and the pressure drops along this roughened channel were about 1 to 10 times larger than those for a smooth channel. Correlations of heat transfer and pressure drop were obtained, which are useful for practical designs. 相似文献

The present study addresses fluid flow and heat transfer in a high temperature compact heat exchanger which will be used as
a chemical decomposer in a hydrogen production plant. The heat exchanger is manufactured using fused ceramic layers that allow
creation of channels with dimensions below 1 mm. The main purpose of this study is to increase the thermal performance of
the heat exchanger, which can help to increase the sulfuric acid decomposition rate. Effects of various channel geometries
of the heat exchanger on the pressure drop are studied as well. A three-dimensional computational model is developed for the
investigation of fluid flow and heat transfer in the heat exchanger. Several different geometries of the heat exchanger channels,
such as straight channels, ribbed ground channels, hexagonal channels, and diamond-shaped channels are examined. Based on
the results, methods on how to improve the design of the heat exchanger are recommended. 相似文献
