This paper deals with the forced cooling problem of a slider bearing with wedge film of finite length, where most of the heat generated in the lubricant film is removed by a coolant which flows under the surface of the bearing pad. Analysis was made on the generalized Reynolds’ equation, including viscosity variations with temperature throughout the film and the energy equation. Simultaneous solutions of these equations seemed to be supported by experiments. From the analysis, calculations were made on the heat flow rate into the coolant, the temperature difference between slider and pad surfaces, bearing characteristics using the representative viscosity, and the mean heat transfer coefficient of the wedge film.

Abstract This paper describes that an analysis of oil film thickness on a piston ring of diesel engine. The oil film thickness has been performed by using Reynolds equation and unsteady, two-dimensional (2-D) energy equation with a heat generated from viscous dissipation. The temperature distribution in the oil film is calculated by using the energy equation and the mean oil film temperature is computed. Then the viscosity of oil film is estimated by using the mean oil film temperature. The effect of oil film temperature on the oil film thickness of a piston ring was examined. This model has been verified with published experimental results. Moreover, the heat flow at ring and liner surfaces was examined. As a result, the oil film thickness could be calculated by using the viscosity estimated from the mean oil film temperature and the calculated value is agreement with the measured values.

A general THD theory and a comparison between theoretical and experimental results are presented. The generalized Reynolds equation, the energy equation in the film, and the heat transfer equation in the bush and the shaft are solved simultaneously. The cavitation in the film, the lubricant recirculation, and the reversed flow at the inlet are taken into account. In addition, the thermoelastic deformations are also calculated in order to define the film thickness. Good agreement is found between experimental data and theoretical results which include thermoelastic displacements of both the shaft and the bush.

Interfacial heat transfer coefficients in a porous medium modeled as a staggered array of square rods are numerically determined. High and low Reynolds k-ϵ turbulence models are used in conjunction of a two-energy equation model, which includes distinct transport equations for the fluid and the solid phases. The literature has documented proposals for macroscopic energy equation modeling for porous media considering the local thermal equilibrium hypothesis and laminar flow. In addition, two-energy equation models have been proposed for conduction and laminar convection in packed beds. With the aim of contributing to new developments, this work treats turbulent heat transport modeling in porous media under the local thermal nonequilibrium assumption. Macroscopic time-average equations for continuity, momentum, and energy are presented based on the recently established double decomposition concept (spatial deviations and temporal fluctuations of flow properties). The numerical technique employed for discretizing the governing equations is the control volume method. Turbulent flow results for the macroscopic heat transfer coefficient, between the fluid and solid phase in a periodic cell, are presented.

This paper analyzed the actual heat transfer coefficient of exterior wall external insulation, which was detected by temperature controlled hot box-heat flow meter method in Nanjing from March to December, 2010 .Research showed that: impacted by one-dimensional stability heat transfer assumption ,78.27% of test values of the heat transfer coefficient for exterior wall external insulation , are less than the calculated values; under certain circumstance, that the external thermal insulation material(Expandable polystyrene shutter, EPS board for short, and Extruded polystyrene shutter, XPS board for short)are the same, the more stable the wall substrate density and material , the greater the heat storage coefficient is and the smaller the relative detection error will be. When using the same stable wall substrate material, the calculation error of XPS board was significantly better than EPS board’s. The analysis, which is about error influence factors of test value of the heat transfer coefficient of exterior wall external insulation, shows that current temperature controlled hot box-heat flow meter heat transfer coefficient method needs further improved and perfect in order to improve the reliability of its conclusion.

To study the effects of surface roughness and additives in lubrication, a generalized form of Reynolds equation is derived by taking into account the roughness interaction zones adjacent to the moving rough surfaces as sparsely porous matrices and purely hydrodynamic film of micropolar fluid characterizing the lubricant with additives. A particular, one-dimensional form of this equation is used to study these effects on the elastohydrodynamic (EHD) minimum film thickness at the inlet, between two rough rollers. It is shown that for the low permeability of the roughness zone, the EHD film thickness increases as the mean height of the asperities increases, whereas for the high permeability it decreases. The EHD film thickness is also found to increase with the concentration of the additives and the molecular size of the particles. These results are in conformity at least qualitatively, with various experimental and theoretical investigations, cited in the paper.

The governing equations for the flow of a granular material within the context of the lubrication theory are derived. The resulting analysis gives a generalized Reynolds equation that predicts the pressure generation capacity in a bearing with consideration of side flow. A series of simulations are presented that characterize the three-dimensional flow behaviour of powder in a slider bearing.

In this study the transfer coefficient of evaporation heat of the refrigerant 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (R-134a) in a vertical plate heat exchanger was experimentally investigated. The results are presented as the dependancy of the mean heat transfer coefficient for the whole heat exchanger on the mean vapor quality. The influences of mass flux, heat flux and flow configuration on the heat transfer coefficient were also taken into account and a comparison with previously published experimental data and literature correlations was made. .

Pulsating and non-pulsating heat transfer tests are carried out on the same heat exchanger. On the basis of experiments, the effective temperature difference, heat flow and convective heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger at different pulse frequencies are analyzed by combining the theory of pulse enhanced heat transfer technology, heat transfer capacity, heat flow and convective heat transfer coefficient. Find the relationship between pulsation frequency of heat transfer effect of heat exchanger. The experimental results show that the heat exchanger has high heat transfer efficiency under the experimental conditions when there is pulsation.

This paper analyses the thermal and roughness effects on different characteristics of an infinitely long tilted pad slider bearing considering heat conduction through both the pad and slider. The roughness is assumed to be stochastic, Gaussian randomly distributed. Density and viscosity are assumed to be temperature dependent. The irregular domain of the fluid due to roughness is mapped to a regular domain so that the numerical method can be easily applied. The modified Reynolds equation, momentum equation, continuity equation, energy equation and the heat conduction equations on the pad and slider are coupled and solved using finite difference method to yield various bearing characteristics. The solutions with respect to different pad and slider boundary conditions are elaborated through tables and figures.

The pulsation-enhanced heat transfer technology is introduced, and a volume coil heat exchanger is designed. A pulsation valve is installed at the heat exchanger outlet of the heat exchanger to pulsate the heat medium, and the same heat exchanger is subjected to pulsation and non-pulsation heat transfer tests. Based on the experiments, combined with the theory of pulsation-enhanced heat transfer technology, heat transfer capacity, heat flow, and convective heat transfer coefficient coefficients, the effective temperature difference, heat flow, and convective heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger at different pulse frequencies are analyzed. The relationship between the pulsation frequency of the heat transfer effect of the heat exchanger is obtained. The test results show that the heat exchanger has higher heat exchange efficiency when there is pulsation under the test conditions.
