Accuracy And Stability

Thermal analyses of the grinding process generally require assumptions concerning the distributions of the heat flux to the workpiece within the grinding zone and convective cooling outside the grinding zone. The present work is concerned with the use of inverse heat transfer methods to estimate the heat flux and convection heat transfer coefficient distributions on the workpiece surface during straight surface grinding from temperature measurements within the workpiece. In the present paper, three inverse heat transfer methods are developed: temperature matching, integral, and sequential methods. Each method is evaluated for accuracy and stability using simulated temperature data. The selection of the sampling frequency of the temperature measurements and location of the temperature sensor are found to be critical for both estimation accuracy and stability. In a second paper, these inverse heat transfer methods are applied to estimate the distributions of the heat flux and convection heat transfer coefficients on the workpiece surface for grinding of steels with aluminum oxide and CBN abrasive wheels.

Inverse Heat Transfer

Distributions of the heat flux to the workpiece and the convection heat transfer coefficient on the workpiece surface during straight surface grinding are estimated from measured temperatures in the workpiece subsurface using inverse heat transfer methods developed in Part 1. The results indicate that the heat flux to the workpiece is distributed approximately linearly (triangular heat source) along the grinding zone with about 70 to 75 percent of the total energy transported as heat to the workpiece for grinding of steels with a conventional aluminum oxide wheel and only about 20 percent with CBN superabrasive wheels. The wheel-workpiece contact length corresponding to the region of positive heat flux to the workpiece is found to be generally close to but slightly longer than the theoretical geometric contact length. The convection heat transfer coefficient for cooling by the applied grinding fluid is greatest just behind the trailing edge of the grinding zone where fluid is directly applied, and negligible ahead of the grinding zone.

Numerical investigations are performed on the convection heat transfer of supercritical pressure fluid flowing through vertical mini tube with inner diameter of 0.27 mm and inlet Reynolds number of 1900 under various heat fluxes conditions using low Reynolds number k-ε turbulence models due to LB (Lam and Bremhorst), LS (Launder and Sharma) and V2F (v2-f). The predictions are compared with the corresponding experimentally measured values. The prediction ability of various low Reynolds number k-ε turbulence models under deteriorated heat transfer conditions induced by combinations of buoyancy and flow acceleration effects are evaluated. Results show that all the three models give fairly good predictions of local wall temperature variations in conditions with relatively high inlet Reynolds number. For cases with relatively low inlet Reynolds number, V2F model is able to capture the general trends of deteriorated heat transfer when the heat flux is relatively low. However, the LS and V2F models exaggerate the flow acceleration effect when the heat flux increases, while the LB model produces qualitative predictions, but further improvements are still needed for quantitative prediction. Based on the detailed flow and heat transfer information generated by simulation, a better understanding of the mechanism of heat transfer deterioration is obtained. Results show that the redistribution of flow field induced by the buoyancy and flow acceleration effects are main factors leading to the heat transfer deterioration.

Building Integrated Photovoltaic

In the absence of a simple technique to predict convection heat transfer on building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) surfaces, a mobile probe with two thermocouples was designed. Thermal boundary layers on vertical flat surfaces of a photovoltaic (PV) and a metallic plate were traversed. The plate consisted of twelve heaters where heat flux and surface temperature were controlled and measured. Uniform heat flux condition was developed on the heaters to closely simulate non-uniform temperature distribution on vertical PV modules. The two thermocouples on the probe measured local air temperature and contact temperature with the wall surface. Experimental results were presented in the forms of local Nusselt numbers versus Rayleigh numbers “Nu=a * (Ra)b”, and surface temperature versus dimensionless height [Ts -T∞= c*(z/h)d]. The constant values for “a”, “b”, “c” and “d” were determined from the best curve-fitting to the power-law relation. The convection heat transfer predictions from the empirical correlations were found to be in consistent with those predictions made by a number of correlations published in the open literature. A simple technique is then proposed to employ two experimental data from the probe to refine empirical correlations as the operational conditions change. A flexible technique to update correlations is of prime significance requirement in thermal design and operation of BIPV modules. The work is in progress to further extend the correlation to predict the combined radiation and convection on inclined PVs and channels.

Rotary furnaces have multiple applications including calcination, pyrolysis, carburization, drying, etc. Heat transfer through granular media in rotary kilns is a complex phenomenon and plays an important role in the thermal efficiency of rotary furnaces. Thorough mixing of particles in a rotary kiln determines the bed temperature uniformity. Hence it is essential to understand the particle scale heat transfer modes through which the granular media temperature changes. In this study, numerical simulations are performed using coupled Discrete Element Method (DEM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to analyze heat transfer in a non-reacting rotary kiln. The microscopic models of particle-particle, particle-fluid, particle-surface and fluid-surface heat transfer are used in the analysis. The heat transfer simulations are validated against experimental data. The effect of particle cascading on the bed temperature is measured and contributions from various modes of particle scale heat transfer mechanisms are reported. Particles are heated near the rotary kiln walls by convection heat transfer as they pass through the thermal boundary layer of the heated fluid. These particles are transported to the center of the kiln where they transfer heat to the cooler particles in the core of the kiln and back to the cooler fluid at the center of the kiln. It is found that 90% of the heat transferred to particles from the kiln walls is a result of convection heat transfer, whereas only 10% of the total heat transfer is due to conduction from the kiln walls.

Forced Convection Heat Transfer

Transient forced convection heat transfer coefficients for both subcritical and supercritical helium in a rectangular flow channel heated on one side were measured during the application of a step in heat flux. Zero flow data were also obtained. The heater surface which served simultaneously as a thermometer was a fast response carbon film. Operating conditions covered the following range: Pressure, 1.0 × 105 Pa (1 bar) to 1.0 × 106 Pa (10 bar); Temperature, 4 K–10 K; Heat Flux, 0.1 W/cm2−10 W/cm2; Reynolds number, 0–8 × 105. The experimental data and a predictive correlation are presented.
