The paper reports the results of an experimental investigation which was intended to clarify the present uncertain position with regard to the distributions of mean temperature and mean velocity in a turbulent natural-convection boundary layer. Data reported for the turbulent boundary layer for Grashof numbers between 1010 and 1011 include local heat transfer coefficients as well as temperatures and velocities. Local heat transfer coefficients and temperature distributions are also reported for the laminar and transitional boundary-layer regions. Results are compared with other experimental data and with theoretical predictions.

Local heat-transfer coefficients and recovery factors are presented for three different cylinders in a two-dimensional subsonic air flow, with emphasis on the effect of screen-produced turbulence on these quantities. The increase in turbulent intensity so realized produced larger local heat-transfer coefficients, in a way dependent upon the location on the cylinders, through a direct increase in the heat transfer to the laminar boundary layer, through an earlier transition to turbulence, or through an alteration in the character of the separated flow. Alternatively, recovery factors were affected less, being invariant with respect to the turbulent intensity for attached boundary layer flow, but demonstrating large changes in those separated flow regions for which increased free stream turbulence produced substantial changes in the nature of the separated flow.

An experimental study was performed to evaluate the natural convection heat transfer characteristics of an array of four staggered vertical plates. The thermal input at each plate was the same or differed from plate to plate depending on various heating modes. The effects of the interplate spacing and the plate-to-ambient temperature difference were investigated. The experiments were performed in air. Convective interactions among the plates were identified by examining the per-plate heat transfer coefficients and the local heat transfer coefficients along the vertical sides of plates. Local heat transfer results were obtained by means of the schlieren quantitative technique. Comparison of local heat transfer coefficients along the plate assembly with those of a continuous vertical plate (having the same height) showed enhancements up to a factor of two. Comparison of average heat transfer results with those for a parallel plate channel having the same exchanger size showed only little reductions in heat transfer rate, despite a 28 percent reduction in heat transfer area, with enhancements, in terms of specific heat flux, up to 30 percent.

Measurements of local heat-transfer coefficients in the fully established oscillating turbulent boundary layer over a flat plate are reported. In the range of frequencies from 0.1 to 200 cps and amplitudes from 8 to 92 percent of the freestream mean velocity, increases in local Nusselt numbers of 3 to 5 percent were found. It is concluded that substantial increases in local coefficients, sometimes reported in oscillating flows of low standing wave ratio, may be traced to reduced transition Reynolds numbers.

The mainly empirical criteria used to predict boundary-layer behavior under the combined influence of velocity gradient factor and significant mainstream turbulence are reviewed and assessed by application to recently published blade heat-transfer measurements. Indications are that under the conditions experienced in gas turbine engines, the scale and frequency of mainstream turbulence may be as important as its intensity in determining local heat transfer coefficients round the blades.

This paper deals with experimental and analytical heat transfer study of nonadecane spheres melting in natural convection of water. Experimental local and average heat transfer coefficients were obtained by analyzing photo images of the shape transformation of the nonadecane spheres. The relevant dimensionless parameters were varied in the ranges of 1.8×107 ≤ Grn·Prn ≤ 1.8×108 and 0.04 ≤ CnΔT/Ln ≤ 0.16. We found that (1) the melting nonadecane sphere was covered with thin nonadecane liquid film flowing upwards along the sphere to make a liquid cap on the top. The cap regularly repeated formation and splitting off, (2) on the lower hemisphere the experimental local heat transfer coefficients were slightly higher than the analytical ones and on the upper hemisphere the experimental local heat transfer coefficients were slightly lower than the analytical ones, and (3) the experimental average Nusselt number was correlated by Nu = 0.151 (Grn·Prn)0.257(CnΔT/Ln)0.117 that was in good agreement with the theoretical one.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Local heat transfer coefficients are presented for a single spherical protuberance on a plate, along which the boundary layer was turbulent, for air speeds from 50 to 150 fps. Two spheres were used to produce ratios of sphere diameter to boundary-layer thickness of the order of 2 and 0.7. The heat transfer coefficient behind the sphere depends approximately on the eight-tenths power of the velocity, its maximum is located about 2 dia downstream of the sphere, and the downstream effect is limited spanwise to a region about 4 dia in width.

Abstract The paper deals with a study of the effect of regulating elements on local values of heat transfer coefficients along shaped heat exchange surfaces with forced air convection. The use of combined methods of heat transfer intensification, i.e. a combination of regulating elements with appropriately shaped heat exchange areas seems to be highly effective. The study focused on the analysis of local values of heat transfer coefficients in indicated cuts, in distances expressed as a ratio x/s for 0; 0.33; 0.66 and 1. As can be seen from our findings, in given conditions the regulating elements can increase the values of local heat transfer coefficients along shaped heat exchange surfaces. An optical method of holographic interferometry was used for the experimental research into temperature fields in the vicinity of heat exchange surfaces. The obtained values correspond very well with those of local heat transfer coefficients αx, recorded in a CFD simulation.

AbstractAnticipating the processes and parameters involved for accomplishing a sound metal casting requires an in-depth understanding of the underlying behaviors characterizing a liquid melt solidifying inside its mold. Heat balance represents a major factor in describing the thermal conditions in a casting process and one of its main influences is the heat transfer between the casting and its surroundings. Local heat transfer coefficients describe how well heat can be transferred from one body or material to another. This paper will discuss the estimation of these coefficients in a gravity die casting process with local air gap formation and heat shrinkage induced contact pressure. Both an experimental evaluation and a numerical modeling for a solidification simulation will be performed as two means of investigating the local heat transfer coefficients and their local differences for regions with air gap formation or contact pressure when casting A356 (AlSi7Mg0.3).
