A model for predicting cutting tool temperatures under transient conditions is presented. The model of Stephenson et al. [10] is extended to include the initial transient response to the tool temperature and nonuniform heat flux distributions. The main goal in this paper is to be able to accurately predict the initial transient tool temperature response, or temperatures in interrupted cutting for cases where the cutting time is short. A method to predict the true transient energy partitioning instead of quasi-steady energy partitioning (Stephenson et al., [10]), without seeking the full numerical analysis, has been developed. In this paper, the transient energy partitioning is obtained through a fixed-point iteration process by modifying the quasi-steady energy partitioning method presented by Loewen and Shaw [11]. The predicted transient tool temperatures are compared quantitatively to the experimental data. Utilizing a semi-empirical correlation for heat flux distribution along the tool-chip interface, the temperature distribution is calculated and compared qualitatively to existing experimental data.

AbstractDaily ice ablation on two outlet glaciers from the Greenland ice sheet, Nordbogletscher (1979–83) and Qamanârssûp sermia (1980–86), is related to air temperature by a linear regression equation. Analysis of this ablation-temperature equation with the help of a simple energy-balance model shows that sensible-heat flux has the greatest temperature response and accounts for about one-half of the temperature response of ablation. Net radiation accounts for about one-quarter of the temperature response of ablation, and latent-heat flux and errors account for the remainder. The temperature response of sensible-heat flux at QQamanârssûp sermia is greater than at Nordbogletscher mainly due to higher average wind speeds. The association of high winds with high temperatures during Föhn events further increases sensible-heat flux. The energy-balance model shows that ablation from a snow surface is only about half that from an ice surface at the same air temperature.

An experimental and numerical study has been carried out for laminar forced convection in a long pipe heated by uniform heat flux and subjected to a reciprocating flow of air. Transient fluid temperature variations in the two mixing chambers connected to both ends of the heated section were measured. These measurements were used as the thermal boundary conditions for the numerical simulation of the hydrodynamically and thermally developing reciprocating flow in the heated pipe. The coupled governing equations for time-dependent convective heat transfer in the fluid flow and conduction in the wall of the heated tube were solved numerically. The numerical results for time-resolved centerline fuid temperature, cycle-averaged wall temperature, and the space-cycle averaged Nusselt number are shown to be in good agreement with the experimental data. Based on the experimental data, a correlation equation is obtained for the cycle-space averaged Nusselt number in terms of appropriate dimensionless parameters for a laminar reciprocating flow of air in a long pipe with constant heat flux.

Abstract A transient, in-situ method was examined for calibrating thin-film heat flux gauges using experimental data generated from both convection and radiation tests. Also, a comparison is made between this transient method and the standard radiation substitution calibration technique. Six Vatell Corporation HFM-7 type heat flux gauges were mounted on the surface of a 2-D, first-stage turbine rotor blade. These gauges were subjected to radiation from a heat lamp and in a separate experiment to a convective heat flux generated by flow in a transonic cascade wind tunnel. A second set of convective tests were performed using jets of cooled air impinging on the surface of the gauges. Direct measurements were simultaneously taken of both the time-resolved heat flux and surface temperature on the blade. The heat flux input was used to predict a surface temperature response using a one-dimensional, semi-infinite conduction model into a substrate with known thermal properties. The sensitivities of the gauges were determined by correlating the semi-infinite predicted temperature response to the measured temperature response. A finite-difference code was used to model the penetration of the heat flux into the substrate in order to estimate the time for which the semi-infinite assumption was valid. The results from these tests showed that the gauges accurately record both the convection and radiation modes of heat transfer. The radiation and convection tests yielded gauge sensitivities which agreed to within ±11%.

In order to have higher power to weight ratio and higher efficiency gas turbine engines, turbine inlet temperatures continue to rise. State-of-the-art turbine inlet temperatures now exceed the turbine rotor material capability. Accordingly, one of the best methods to protect turbine airfoil surfaces is to use film cooling on the airfoil external surfaces. In general, sizable amounts of expensive cooling flow delivered from the core compressor are used to cool the high temperature surfaces. That sizable cooling flow, on the order of 20% of the compressor core flow, adversely impacts the overall engine performance and hence the engine power density. With better understanding of the cooling flow and accurate prediction of the heat transfer distribution on airfoil surfaces, heat transfer designers can have a more efficient design to reduce the cooling flow needed for high temperature components and improve turbine efficiency. This in turn lowers the overall specific fuel consumption (SFC) for the engine. Accurate prediction of rotor metal temperature is also critical for calculations of cyclic thermal stress, oxidation, and component life. The utilization of three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (3D CFD) codes for turbomachinery aerodynamic design and analysis is now a routine practice in the gas turbine industry. The accurate heat-transfer and metal-temperature prediction capability of any CFD code, however, remains challenging. This difficulty is primarily due to the complex flow environment of the high-pressure turbine, which features high speed rotating flow, coupling of internal and external unsteady flows, and film-cooled, heat transfer enhancement schemes. In this study, conjugate heat transfer (CHT) simulations are performed on a high-pressure cooled turbine stage, and the heat flux results at mid span are compared to experimental data obtained at The Ohio State University Gas Turbine Laboratory (OSUGTL). Due to the large difference in time scales between fluid and solid, the fluid domain is simulated as steady state while the solid domain is simulated as transient in CHT simulation. This paper compares the unsteady and transient results of the heat flux on a high-pressure cooled turbine rotor with measurements obtained at OSUGTL.

Abstract. Using a six year data set of eddy covariance flux measurements of sensible and latent heat, soil heat flux, net radiation, above-ground phytomass and meteorological driving forces energy partitioning was investigated at a temperate mountain grassland managed as a hay meadow in the Stubai Valley (Austria). The main findings of the study were: (i) Energy partitioning was dominated by latent heat, followed by sensible heat and the soil heat flux; (ii) When compared to standard environmental forcings, the amount of green plant matter, which due to three cuts varied considerably during the vegetation period, explained similar, and partially larger, fractions of the variability in energy partitioning; (iii) There were little, if any, indications of water stress effects on energy partitioning, despite reductions in soil water availability in combination with high evaporative demand, e.g. during the summer drought of 2003.

An experiment has recently been performed at Xi’an Jiaotong University to study the wall temperature and pressure drop at supercritical pressures with upward flow of water inside a 2×2 rod bundle. A fuel-assembly simulator with four heated rods was installed inside a square channel with rounded corner. The outer diameter of each heated rod is 8 mm with an effective heated length of 600 mm. Experimental parameters covered the pressure of 23–28 MPa, mass flux of 350–1000 kg/m2s and heat flux on the rod surface of 200–1000 kW/m2. According to the experimental data, it was found that the circumferential wall temperature distribution of a heated rod is not uniform. The temperature difference between the maximum and the minimum varies with heat flux and/or mass flux. Heat transfer characteristics of supercritical water in bundle were discussed with respect to various heat fluxes. The effect of heat flux on heat transfer in rod bundles is similar with that in tubes or annuli. In addition, flow resistance reflected in the form of pressure loss has also been studied. Experimental results showed that the total pressure drop increases with bulk enthalpy and mass flux. Four heat transfer correlations developed for supercritical pressures water were compared with the present test data. Predictions of Jackson correlation agrees closely with the experimental data.

In this study, a single injector methane-oxygen rocket combustor is numerically studied. The simulations included in this study are based on the hardware and experimental data from the Technical University of Munich. The focus is on the recently developed generalized k–ω turbulence model (GEKO) and the effect of its adjustable coefficients on the pressure and on wall heat flux profiles, which are compared with the experimental data. It was found that the coefficients of ‘jet’, ‘near-wall’, and ‘mixing’ have a major impact, whereas the opposite can be deduced about the ‘separation’ parameter Csep, which highly influences the pressure and wall heat flux distributions due to the changes in the eddy-viscosity field. The simulation results are compared with the standard k–ε model, displaying a qualitatively and quantitatively similar behavior to the GEKO model at a Csep equal to unity. The default GEKO model shows a stable performance for three oxidizer-to-fuel ratios, enhancing the reliability of its use. The simulations are conducted using two chemical kinetic mechanisms: Zhukov and Kong and the more detailed RAMEC. The influence of the combustion model is of the same order as the influence of the turbulence model. In general, the numerical results present a good or satisfactory agreement with the experiment, and both GEKO at Csep = 1 or the standard k–ε model can be recommended for usage in the CFD simulations of rocket combustion chambers, as well as the Zhukov–Kong mechanism in conjunction with the flamelet approach.

A simple method has been developed to model boiling heat transfer from a heat exchanger to pools using the experimental data available in the literature without modeling the flow dynamics of the pool. In this approach the heat flux outside vertical tubes is expressed as a function of outside wall temperature of the tubes and saturation temperature of the pool at or near atmospheric pressure.
