纵向导热对换热芯传热性能的影响

文中数值模拟了套管的导热系数、纵向长度和肋数对纵向导热的影响,随着纵向长度的增大,纵向导热的影响急剧减小.导热系数和肋数的增加都会使纵向导热的影响增加.对纵向长度小于 100 mm 短管来说,纵向导热越大热短路造成的损失越大,使整个换热芯传热效率相应幅度地降低;对管长大于 100 mm,材料导热系数小于 46 W/(m·K) 的回热器及换热介质为气体的来说,可以忽略纵向导热的影响.     

人字波纹和百叶窗连续翅片管束内传热、流阻和流型的研究

一、前言 近代的空冷器不仅在空气侧采用翅片以扩展换热表面面积,而且还力图合理设计翅片的形状使之增强翅片表面的换热系数来强化空冷器的传热。与单管平翅片相比,连续平翅片消除了气流短路,使各管的导热可以互补,紧凑性好且适合于大规模机械化生产。因此,连续平翅片传热的强化更受重视。Goldstein和Sparrow采用波纹状翅片进行实验,当Re=1000时测得其传热系数比同尺寸的平翅片要增高45％左右。Nakayama对百叶窗式翅片空冷器进行了研究,发现在相同条件下其换热系数要比平翅片     

冲击射流结构中应用粗糙表面的实验研究

在单侧开口的冲击射流冷却结构中,逐步增加的横流将影响冲击板上的对流换热效率,本文提出了压窝板和肋片板两种粗糙冲击板构型,增加横流的扰动以减少对冲击流的影响并且增大横流与壁面的对流换热。实验采用瞬态热敏液晶测量方法,可以得到大尺度壁面的二维对流换热系数分布,可以较为系统地分析压窝及肋片周围的局部换热系数分布。通过实验研究,发现压窝板可以显著增大平均换热系数,而肋片板降低了平均换热系数。

Experimental investigation of heat transfer from different pin fin in a rectangular channel

In this study, the effect of both hexagonal pin fins (HPFs) and cylindrical pin fins (CPFs) into the rectangular channel on heat transfer augmentation, Nusselt number and friction factor were experimentally investigated. In planning of the experiments, different Reynolds number, pin fin array, pin fin geometry and the ratio of the distance between pin fin spacing (s) to the pin fin hydraulic diameter (s/D_h) were chosen as the design parameters. Air was used as the fluid. The Reynolds number, based on the channel hydraulic diameter of the rectangular channel, was varied from 3188 to 19531. In the experiments, the heating plate was made of stainless steel foil. The foil was electrically heated by means of a high current DC power supply to provide a constantly heated flux surface. The heat transfer results were obtained using the infrared thermal imaging technique. The heat transfer results of the hexagonal pin fins (HPFs) and cylindrical pin fins (CPFs) are compared with those of a smooth plate. Best heat transfer performance was obtained with the hexagonal pin fins. The maximum thermal performance factor ((?), was obtained as Re = 3188, staggered array, s/D_h = 0, ? = 2.28.

Experimental Study of Wavy Fin Aluminum Plate Fin Heat Exchanger

An experimental study of the air-side thermal hydraulic performance of the aluminum wavy fin in heat exchanger was performed. A series of tests were conducted for 16 wavy fin samples with different geometry parameters. The experimental correlation equations of the wavy fin about the heat transfer and pressure drop are set up using the multiple regression method. The parametric study on the performance of the wavy fins is carried out using the Taguchi method. The study results show that the ratio of the wavy fin amplitude and wavy length is the most important factor that affects the overall thermal hydraulic performance.     

Study of vapor condensation on curvilinear fins under influence of capillary forces and gravity

The problem on film vapor condensation on curvilinear fins is solved numerically with regard to surface tension and gravity. Steam condensation on a fin of optimized and semicircular form was calculated for various inclinations of the fin relative to the direction of gravity vector and the levels of groove flooding. The calculations showed that the average heat transfer coefficient for a semicircular fin slightly decreases with changing the fin position relative to the direction of gravity vector, at that, the “zero” flow point from which the condensate flows in different directions shifts. For an optimized fin, there is no such shift, and the heat transfer coefficient does not practically change. The top of an optimized fin with a large curvature serves as a kind of "barrier" for the flow. The heat transfer coefficients on optimized fins are significantly higher than those on semicircular fins. The amount of the level of groove flooding significantly affects the condensation efficiency as a whole; however, it does not affect the process of condensation on the convex part of fins.     

Effects of fin pitch and tube diameter on the air-side performance of tube bank fin heat exchanger with the fins punched plane and curved rectangular vortex generators

Tube bank fin heat exchangers with vortex generators are widely used in the field of industrial applications. The effects of the fin pitch and the tube diameter on the air-side performance of the tube bank fin heat exchanger with plane rectangular vortex generators (PRVG) and curved rectangular vortex generators (CRVG) are experimentally studied in this paper. Performance comparison is carried out between the fins with PRVG and CRVG. The experimental results show that both PRVG and CRVG can effectively enhance heat transfer performance compared with the plain fin. Both the fin pitch and the tube diameter have obvious effect on f compared with the effect on Nu, especially for the fin with PRVG. The characteristics of Nu, f, and Nu/f^1/3 are different for the fins with PRVG and CRVG. The fin with CRVG has a better heat transfer performance than the fin with PRVG for all the cases studied in this paper.     

Analysis of frost visualization over a fin and tube heat exchanger by natural convection

In this article, studies are made on frost formation and flow over a fin and tube heat exchanger due to natural convection for various conditions of relative humidity, air ambient temperature, and mean refrigerant temperature. The results include frost deposition, steps of frost formation, and its effect on heat transfer rate for different conditions. The results show that frost is formed only on the tip of the fins with higher thickness from top to bottom due to small distance between the fins. Frost causes to trap the air which increases the thermal resistance and reduces heat transfer in the system.     

NATURAL CONVECTION FROM A VERTICAL RECTANGULAR FIN

An experimental investigation of steady-state natural convection from vertical rectangular mild steel and aluminum fins was conducted using laser holographic interferometry. Infinite-fringe interferograms demonstrate the effect of fin base heating. Depending on the fin material and base temperature, the local heat transfer coefficients vary along the fin with maximum values at positions about 22-48% of the fin height measured from the base. Temperature measurements along the fin show good agreement with the classical one-dimensional corwective and adiabalic tip solutions. Hence, in the thermal design of vertical aluminum fins of low Biot numbers, the classical one-dimensional fin solutions may be used together with an average heat transfer coefficient obtained from established correlations for natural convection from an isothermal flat plate.     

Visualization of transient natural convection heat transfer from a vertical rectangular fin

Experiments on thermal visualization of transient natural convection from short vertical rectangular fins were conducted using the technique of laser holographic interferometry. A sequence of infinite-fringe interferograms recorded for the heating regime of an aluminum fin demonstrates the effect of fin base heating on local convection coefficients and reveals alternating and oscillatory buoyancydriven flows similar to those over the top surface of heated horizontal plates. The effect of fin base heating results in greater uniformity of the local heat transfer coefficient along the fin. It also significantly reduces the steady-state heat transfer coefficients of short vertical fins compared to their transient values. Hence, the use of steady-state solutions for the design of short vertical fins operating in transient conditions may not introduce as much error as was previously thought.
