Over a range of 70 < Rea < 9600, 7 < Pra < 130, 0 < ∃ < 0.12 and 0.7 < n < 1, circumferential wall temperatures for air-water and air-aqueous polymer (viscoelastic) solution flows over a horizontal cylinder were measured experimentally. The 2.5-cm-diameter and 7.5-cm-length cylinder was heated by passing direct electric current through it. The peripherally averaged heat transfer coefficient for relatively dilute viscoelastic-air solutions, at any fixed flow rate of liquid phase, increases with ∃. Such increase is more pronounced at lower flow rates of liquid phase. For relatively more elastic solutions, the two-phase heat transfer decreases with increasing ∃. Such reduction is more pronounced at higher flow rates of liquid phase. A new correlation is proposed for predicting the Nusselt number for air-viscoelastic fluid flows over a heated cylinder in cross flow.

Abstract Pool boiling around a heated cylinder having a diameter larger than the departure diameter of bubbles has been simulated numerically. Thermally uniform heat flux condition has been maintained at the outer surface of the cylinder, submerged at saturated water at atmospheric pressure. Using the Volume of Fluid type framework of liquid phase fraction in the domain, bubble life cycle around the horizontal cylinder has been analyzed to understand different stages of growth, sliding, merging prior to departure. An effort has also been made to characterize the bubble population, emerging from different sites over the cylindrical surface. The influence of cylinder inclination along its axis on these interfacial features has also been discussed using representative numerical simulation. Temperature profiles of the cylinder surface have been portrayed for both horizontal and inclined situations before presenting respective heat transfer coefficients.

Oscillating Circular Cylinders

Experiments were conducted to determine the relationship between wake structure and heat transfer for an oscillating circular cylinder in cross-flow. An internally heated cylinder was suspended in a water tunnel and oscillated transverse to the freestream. The cylinder’s heat transfer coefficient was measured over a wide range of oscillation amplitudes and frequencies. By comparing these results to the known wake mode regions in the amplitude-frequency plane, relationships between wake mode and heat transfer were identified. Representative cases were investigated further by using digital particle image thermometry/velocimetry (DPIT/V) to simultaneously measure the temperature and velocity fields in the near-wake. This revealed more detail about the mechanisms of heat transfer enhancement. The dynamics of the vortex formation process, including the trajectories of the vortices during roll-up, are the primary cause of the heat transfer enhancement.

Abstract The heat transfer and fluid flow performance of a hybrid jet plus multipass microchannel heat sink in two-phase operation is evaluated for the cooling of a single large area, 3.61 cm2, heat source. The two-layer branching microchannel heat sink is evaluated using HFE-7100 as the coolant at three inlet volumetric flow rates of 150, 300, and 450 ml/min. The boiling performance is highest for the flow rate of 450 ml/min with the maximum heat flux value of 174 W/cm2. Critical heat flux (CHF) was observed at two of the tested flow rates, 150 and 300 ml/min, before reaching the maximum operating temperature for the serpentine heater. At 450 ml/min, the heater reached the maximum allowable temperature prior to observing CHF. The maximum pressure drop for the heat sink is 34.1 kPa at a heat flux of 164 W/cm2. Further, the peak heat transfer coefficient value of the heat sink is 28,700 W/m2 K at a heat flux value of 174 W/cm2 and a flow rate of 450 ml/min. Finally, a validated correlation of the single device cooler is presented that predicts heat transfer performance and can be utilized in the design of multidevice coolers.
