The flow characteristic of fluid at low Prandtl number is of continued interest in the nuclear industry because liquid metals are to be used in the next-generation nuclear power reactors. In this work we performed direct numerical simulation (DNS) for turbulent channel flow with fluid of low Prandtl number. The Prandtl number was set to 0.025, which is representative of the behavior of liquid metals. Constant heat flux was imposed on the walls to study heat transfer behavior, with different boundary conditions for temperature fluctuation. The bulk Reynolds number was set as high as 50,000, with a corresponding friction Reynolds number of 1,200, which is closer to the situation in a reactor or a heat exchanger than used in normally available databases. Budgets for turbulent variables were computed and compared with predictions from several RANS turbulence models. In particular, the Algebraic Heat Flux Model (AHFM) has been the focus of this comparison with DNS data. The comparisons highlight some shortcomings of AHFM along with potential improvements.

Heat Flux Model

Free convection flow of Jeffrey nanofluid past a vertical plate with sinusoidal variations of surface temperature and species concentration is presented. The study of heat transfer and nanofluid transport has been done by employing Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model and Buongiorno model, respectively. Equations governing the flow are non-dimensionalized using appropriate transformations. Furthermore, the method of local similarity and local non-similarity is used to reduce the equations into non-linear coupled system of equations which are then solved by homotopy analysis method. The obtained results are validated by comparing with the existing results available in the literature. The numerical results are found to be in good agreement. The effects of varying the physical parameters such as Deborah Number, Prandtl number, Schmidt number, thermophoresis parameter, Brownian motion parameter and buoyancy ratio parameter are obtained and presented graphically. The effect of sinusoidal variation of surface temperature and species concentration on the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number is also shown. Velocity for Jeffrey nanofluid is more than the Newtonian nanofluid while temperature and nanoparticle concentration for Jeffrey nanofluid is less than the Newtonian nanofluid. Raising value of thermal relaxation times leads to an increase in the heat transfer coefficient. It is observed that temperature of Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is less than that in classical Fourier’s model away from the vertical wall. These types of boundary layer flow problems are found in vertical film solar energy collector, grain storage, transportation and power generation, thermal insulation, gas production, petroleum resources, geothermal reservoirs.

Enhancement Property

Abstract Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model was proposed to remedy the weakness of the traditional Fourier heat flux model in order to maintain the finite travel time of heat. The literature is replete with numerical studies to understand the heat transfer enhancement property. The present effort is to provide a mathematical rigor and to analytically demonstrate why the new model should act towards cooling and thus, in the way of enhancing the heat transfer rate from the surfaces. The derived and presented formulae here prove this assertion through comparison with a few selected examples from the open literature.

Heat Flux Model

The study is concerned with the heat transfer in a slip flow of a dusty fluid with the impact of a magnetic field and nonlinear thermal radiation. Furthermore, for the heat transfer process the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is used. Suitable similarity transformations are used to transform the governing equations. Later, shooting method and the Runge-Kutta Fehlberg's fourth fifth order (RKF-45) process are utilized to solve these reduced system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Impact of numerous involved parameters on the flow, thermal fields of both dust and fluid phase, skin friction and rate of heat transfer are visually plotted through graphs and discussed quantitatively. The significant outcomes drawn from the current study are that, the rise in value of the velocity slip parameter decreases the velocity profile but improves the thermal profile of both the phases. The growing values of curvature parameter intensify the flow and the thermal fields of both phases. The cumulative values of magnetic parameter and dust particle mass concentration parameter declines the velocity and thermal gradients of both phases. The thermal relaxation time parameter decays the temperature profile. The heat transfer rate is strengthened with the growing values of the curvature parameter, the velocity slip parameter, and radiation parameter.
