Enhancement Property

Abstract Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model was proposed to remedy the weakness of the traditional Fourier heat flux model in order to maintain the finite travel time of heat. The literature is replete with numerical studies to understand the heat transfer enhancement property. The present effort is to provide a mathematical rigor and to analytically demonstrate why the new model should act towards cooling and thus, in the way of enhancing the heat transfer rate from the surfaces. The derived and presented formulae here prove this assertion through comparison with a few selected examples from the open literature.

Abstract This paper presents experimental study of heat transfer during film condensation of saturated water steam on the outer surface of the inclined pipe by gradient heatmetry. Heat flux per unit area was measured by gradient heat flux sensors made of a single-crystal bismuth. The experimental results are presented in the graphs of heat flux per unit area dependence on time and azimuthal angle. The highest average heat transfer coefficient during condensation of α = 6.94 kW/(m2 • K) was observed when the pipe was inclined at the angle of ψ = 20 °. This value exceeds one obtained on a vertical pipe by 14.9 %. Heat transfer enhancement during condensation of saturated water steam on inclined pipe is associated with changes in condensate film flow. Another part of experiments was made by simultaneously using of gradient heatmetry and condensate flow visualization. Experimental results confirmed the applicability and high informative content of proposed comprehensive method. Comprehensive study of heat transfer during condensation confirmed that heat flux per unit area pulsations may be explained by the formation of individual drops, their coalescence, and drainage from the sensor surface.

Flow And Heat Transfer

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the flow and heat transfer characteristics of microchannel heatsinks with ribs, cavities and secondary channels. The influence of length and width of the ribs on heat transfer enhancement, secondary flows, flow distribution and temperature distribution are examined at different Reynolds numbers. The effectiveness of each heatsink is evaluated using the performance factor. Design/methodology/approach A three-dimensional solid-fluid conjugate heat transfer numerical model is used to study the flow and heat transfer characteristics in microchannels. One symmetrical channel is adopted for the simulation to reduce the computational cost and time. Flow inside the channels is assumed to be single-phase and laminar. The governing equations are solved using finite volume method. Findings The numerical results are analyzed in terms of average Nusselt number ratio, average base temperature, friction factor ratio, pressure variation inside the channel, temperature distribution, velocity distribution inside the channel, mass flow rate distribution inside the secondary channels and performance factor of each microchannels. Results indicate that impact of rib width is higher in enhancing the heat transfer when compared with its length but with a penalty on the pressure drop. The combined effects of secondary channels, ribs and cavities helps to lower the temperature of the microchannel heat sink and enhances the heat transfer rate. Practical implications The fabrication of microchannels are complex, but recent advancements in the additive manufacturing techniques makes the fabrication of the design considered in this numerical study feasible. Originality/value The proposed microchannel heatsink can be used in practical applications to reduce the thermal resistance, and it augments the heat transfer rate when compared with the baseline design.

Flow Induced Vibration

Abstract This paper presented design guideline of the microfin array heat sink using flow-induced vibration to increase the heat transfer rate in the laminar flow regime. Effect of the flow-induced vibration of a microfin array on heat transfer enhancement was investigated experimentally by comparing the thermal resistances of the microfin array heat sink and those of a plain-wall heat sink. At the air velocities of 4.4m/s and 5.5 m/s, an increase of 5.5% and 11.5% in the heat transfer rate was obtained, respectively. The microfin flow sensor also characterized the flow-induced vibration of the microfin. It was determined that the microfin vibrates with the fundamental natural frequency regardless of the air velocity. It was also shown that the vibrating displacement of the microfin is increased with increasing air velocity and then saturated over a certain value of air velocity. Based on the numerical analysis of the temperature distribution resulted from microfin vibration and experimental results, a simple heat transfer model (heat pumping model) was proposed to understand the heat transfer mechanism of a microfin array heat sink. Under the geometric and structural constraints, the maximum heat transfer enhancement was obtained at the intersection of the minimum thickness of the microfin and constraint of the bending angle.
