Accurate and efficient modeling of convective heat transfer coefficient (CHTC) by considering the detailed room geometry and heat flux density in building is demanding for economy, environmental amiability, and user satisfaction. We report the three-dimensional finite-volume numerical simulation of internal room flow field characteristics with heated walls. Two different room geometries are chosen to determine the CHTC and temperature distribution. The conservation equations (elliptic partial differential) for the incompressible fluid flows are numerically solved using iterative method with no-slip boundary conditions to compute velocity components, pressure, temperature, turbulent kinetic energy, and dissipation rate. A line-by-line solution technique combined with a tri-diagonal matrix algorithm (TDMA) is used. The temperature field is simulated for various combinations of air-change per hour and geometrical parameters. The values of HTCs are found to enhance with increasing wall temperatures.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

The SEED (Swirled Enthalpy Equilibrium Device) process was used to produce semi-solid slurries. One of the factors that controls whether or not a slug can be used to produce high quality castings is the solid fraction distribution within the slug, and the solid fraction distribution is strongly dependent upon the temperature distribution. In this study, a model has been developed using ProCAST to investigate the relationship between process parameters and the temperature distribution within slugs. The parameters examined included the heat transfer coefficient between the crucible and slug, the heat transfer coefficient between the crucible and air, the slug diameter, and the initial melt temperature (pouring temperature). It was found that the most important parameters controlling the temperature distribution within slugs were the crucible size and the heat transfer coefficient between crucible and air. Adjustment of other parameters had little influence on the temperature distribution. Processing parameters will be discussed in order to allow the SEED process to be used for the production of large diameter slugs (>100 mm), and for narrow freezing range (0.3<fs<0.5, fs is fraction solid) alloys such as 6063.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Most of the cracks on concrete dam are external ones, while external heat preservation is an important measure to prevent cracking. In order to obtain the actual thermal parameters, according to thermal conduction theory and the temperature distribution conditions of optical fiber on concrete surface, the surface temperature distribution of concrete pouring deck was real-time monitored by setting optical fiber in different depths; then the surface heat flux of mass concrete was calculated, thereby the equivalent surface heat transfer coefficient, which varied as time goes, was inversed. It is indicated that the inversion process is relatively simple and reliable, and the heat transfer coefficient obtained can well reflect the real performance of the insulation materials. Meanwhile, it is also indicated that the heat transfer coefficient of equivalent surface varies as time goes, which can contribute to back analysis calculation and actual engineering practice.

Coolant Velocity

An existing three-dimensional Navier–Stokes code (Arnone et al., 1991), modified to include film cooling considerations (Garg and Gaugler, 1994), has been used to study the effect of coolant velocity and temperature distribution at the hole exit on the heat transfer coefficient on three film-cooled turbine blades, namely, the C3X vane, the VKI rotor, and the ACE rotor. Results are also compared with the experimental data for all the blades. Moreover, Mayle’s transition criterion (1991), Forest’s model for augmentation of leading edge heat transfer due to free-stream turbulence (1977), and Crawford’s model for augmentation of eddy viscosity due to film cooling (Crawford et al., 1980) are used. Use of Mayle’s and Forest’s models is relevant only for the ACE rotor due to the absence of showerhead cooling on this rotor. It is found that, in some cases, the effect of distribution of coolant velocity and temperature at the hole exit can be as much as 60 percent on the heat transfer coefficient at the blade suction surface, and 50 percent at the pressure surface. Also, different effects are observed on the pressure and suction surface depending upon the blade as well as upon the hole shape, conical or cylindrical.

Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient

This paper presents a method to determine the effective friction factor and overall heat transfer coefficient for a high-pressure, natural gas pipeline during fully transient flow conditions. Time-varying SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) measurements at the pipeline boundaries (i.e., inlet and outlet) provide boundary conditions for a transient flow model, as well as additional information which is utilized to determine these parameters. The resulting friction factor and overall heat transfer coefficient minimize the least-squared difference between the additional SCADA measurements at the pipeline outlet and the corresponding values predicted from the transient flow model. This concept is referred to as parameter estimation. The transient flow model is based on a numerical solution of the one-dimensional conservation equations (i.e., continuity, momentum, and energy) which are discretized using a highly accurate compact finite-difference scheme. The transient flow model and parameter estimation is incorporated into a computer program that is initially tested on a simple pipeline with steady flow conditions. The predicted outlet pressure and temperature using the estimated friction factor and overall heat transfer coefficient exactly matches the corresponding prescribed values. Subsequently, a portion of the Foothills Pipe Line Ltd. transmission system in Alberta is considered using time-varying SCADA flow measurements. The resulting outlet pressure and temperature from the transient flow model are in good agreement with SCADA measurements for this pipeline section.
