Maximum Heat Flux

In this study, the distribution of surface heat transfer induced by dual side-jets injected into a hypersonic flow has been visualized using a temperature sensitive paint. The experiments were performed in both tandem and parallel injector arrangements, and the spacing between the injection holes was taken as a parameter in each arrangement. As a result, the aerodynamic heating in the separated region of the boundary layer and in the horseshoe vortex was clearly visualized. In the tandem arrangements, heat transfer remarkably increased immediately upstream of the front injector. The distributions and the intensity of surface heat transfer were similar to those caused by the single injection. On the other hand, in the parallel arrangements, the extent of the separation nearly doubled, and the maximum heat flux decreased to less than half of that from the single injection. The global distribution of heat transfer varied significantly as the injector spacing was changed. When the injectors were positioned with a large spacing, the interaction between the side-jets was relatively lowered, and thus distribution, as for the single injector, was induced around each injection hole individually. In contrast, with a short spacing, the dual injection behaved as a single obstacle. The most effective reduction of maximum heat flux was achieved with an intermediate injector spacing.

Abstract Transient heat transfer studies of quenching rotary hollow cylinders with in-line and staggered multiple arrays of jets have been carried out experimentally. The study involves three hollow cylinders (Do/d = 12 to 24) with rotation speed 10 to 50 rpm, quenched by subcooled water jets (ΔTsub=50-80 K) with jet flow rate 2.7 to 10.9 L/min. The increase in area-averaged and maximum heat flux over quenching surface (Af) has been observed in the studied multiple arrays with constant Qtotal compared to previous studies. Investigation of radial temperature distribution at stagnation point of jet reveals that the footprint of configuration of 4-row array is highlighted in radial distances near the outer surface and vanishes further down toward the inner surface. The influence of the main quenching parameters on local average surface heat flux at stagnation point is addressed in all the boiling regimes where the result indicates jet flow rate provides strongest effect in all the boiling regimes. Effectiveness of magnitude of maximum heat flux in the boiling curve for the studied parameters is reported. The result of spatial and temporal heat flux by radial conduction in the solid presents projection depth of cyclic variation of surface heat flux in the radial axis as it disappears near inner surface of hollow cylinder. In addition, correlations are proposed for area-averaged Nusselt number as well as average and maximum local heat flux at stagnation point of jet for the in-line and staggered multiple arrays.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

In a heat pipe, operating fluid saturates wick structures system and establishes a capillary-driven circulation loop for heat transfer. Thus, the thermophysical properties of the operating fluid inevitably impact the transitions of phase-change mode and the capability of heat transfer, which determine both the design and development of the associated heat pipe systems. This article investigates the effect of liquid properties on phase-change heat transfer. Two different copper wick structures, cubic and cylindrical in cross section, 340 μm in height and 150 μm in diameter or width, are fabricated using an electroplating technique. The phase-change phenomena inside these wick structures are observed at various heat fluxes. The corresponding heat transfer characteristics are measured for three different working liquids: water, ethanol, and Novec 7200. Three distinct modes of the phase-change process are identified: (1) evaporation on liquid–vapor interface, (2) nucleate boiling with interfacial evaporation, and (3) boiling enhanced interface evaporation. Transitions between the three modes depend on heat flux and liquid properties. In addition to the mode transition, liquid properties also dictate the maximum heat flux and the heat transfer coefficient. A quantitative characterization shows that the maximum heat flux scales with Merit number, a dimensionless number connecting liquid density, surface tension, latent heat of vaporization, and viscosity. The heat transfer coefficient, on the other hand, is dictated by the thermal conductivity of the liquid. A complex interaction between the mode transition and liquid properties is reflected in Novec 7200. In spite of having the lowest thermal conductivity among the three liquids, an early transition to the mode of the boiling enhanced interface evaporation leads to a higher heat transfer coefficient at low heat flux.

Abstract Accurate numerical prediction of surface heat transfer in the presence of film cooling within aero-engine sub-components, such as blade effusion holes and combustor liners, has long been a goal of the aero-engine industry. It requires accurate simulation of the turbulent mixing and reaction processes between freestream and the cooling flow. In this study, the stress-blended eddy simulation (SBES) turbulence model is used together with the flamelet generated manifold (FGM) combustion model to calculate the surface heat flux upstream and downstream of an effusion cooling hole. The SBES model employs a blending function to automatically switch between Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) and large eddy simulation (LES) based on the local flow features, and thus significantly reduces the computational cost compared to a full LES simulation. All simulations are run using ansys fluent®, a commercial finite-volume computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver. The test case corresponds to an experimental rig run at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), which is essentially a flat plate brushed by a uniform freestream of argon with ethylene seeded inside, and is cooled by either a reacting air or a non-reacting nitrogen jet inclined at 35 deg to the freestream. Calculations are performed for both reacting and non-reacting jet cooling cases across a range of jet-to-stream blowing ratios and compared with the experimental data. The effects of mesh resolution are also investigated. Calculations are also performed across a range of Damköhler number (i.e., flow to chemical time ratio) from zero to 30, with unity blowing ratio, and the differences in the maximum surface heat flux magnitude in the reacting and non-reacting cases at a specific location downstream of the hole are investigated. Results from these analyses show good correlation with the experimental heat flux data upstream and downstream of the cooling hole, including the heat flux augmentation due to local reaction. Results from the Damköhler number sweep also show a good match with the experimental data across the range investigated.

Maximum Heat Flux

In-vessel melt retention has drawn renewed concern as an important severe accident management measure in existing and advanced light water reactors. Despite numerous studies the central question whether the maximum heat flux in a melt pool could exceed the critical heat flux (CHF) is not fully answered. The uncertainty comes from the variety of accident scenarios and the corresponding melt pool configurations, as well as from the applicability of the experimental results to the reactor case. It is therefore necessary to examine the melt heat transfer under different pool configurations and cooling conditions, as well as to compare the experimental results coming from different test vessel geometries and cooling regimes. This study investigates the heat transfer characteristics of an oxidic pool in the PWR lower plenum in the case when the vessel wall is externally cooled by water, and the melt upper surface is free in a closed insulated environment. Thus the melt pool cooling conditions are quasi-isothermal at the inclined sidewall and at the upper surface free surface with thermal radiation. This pool configuration can occur before the melt layer stratification begins or the melt pool is composed only of oxide melt under certain melt relocation sequences. A non-eutectic nitrate mixture with the composition of 20% NaNO3−80% KNO3 in mole relation is used as the simulant melt. Besides the determination of melt temperature and heat flux in their global average values, emphasis are given on the characterization of the axial distribution of melt temperature and heat flux at different power densities and pool heights. Results obtained in hemispherical geometry are analyzed and compared with other studies conducted under similar boundary conditions. The characterization of the heat flux distribution provide important data for the prediction of the maximum heat flux in the reactor case with similar boundary conditions and the evaluation of the concept of in-vessel melt retention by external cooling.

The effect of staggered-array water impinging jets on boiling heat transfer was investigated by a simultaneous measurement between boiling visualization and heat transfer characteristics. The boiling phenomena of staggered-array impinging jets on hot steel plate were visualized by 4K UHD video camera. The surface temperature and heat flux on hot steel plate was determined by solving 2-D inverse heat conduction problem, which was measured by the flat-plate heat flux gauge. The experiment was made at jet Reynolds number of Re = 5,000 and the jet-to-jet distance of staggered-array jets of S/Dn = 10. Complex flow interaction of staggered-array impinging jets exhibited hexagonal flow pattern like as honey-comb. The calculated surface heat transfer profiles show a good agreement with the corresponding boiling visualization. The peak of heat flux accords with the location which nucleate boiling is occurred at. In early stage, the positions of maximum heat flux locate at the stagnation point of each jet as the relatively low surface temperature is shown at their positions. At the elapsed time of 10 s, the flat shape of heat flux profile is formed in the hexagonal area where the interacting flow uniformly cools down the wetted surface. After that, the wetted area continuously enlarges with time and the maximum heat flux is observed at its peripheral. These results point out that the flow interaction of staggered-array jets effectively cools down the closer area around jets and also show an expansion of nucleate boiling and suppression of film boiling during water jet cooling on hot steel plate.

Experiments are conducted to investigate the effects of bulk flow pulsations on film cooling from compound angle holes. A row of five film cooling holes is employed with orientation angles of 0, 30, 60, and 90 deg at a fixed inclination angle of 35 deg. Static pressure pulsations are generated using an array of six rotating shutter blades, which extend across the span of the exit of the wind tunnel test section. Pulsation frequencies of 0 Hz, 8 Hz, and 36 Hz, and time-averaged blowing ratios of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 are employed. Corresponding coolant Strouhal numbers based on these values then range from 0.20 to 3.6. Spatially resolved surface heat transfer coefficient distributions are measured (with the film and freestream at the same temperature) using thermochromic liquid crystals. Presented are ratios of surface heat transfer coefficients with and without film cooling, as well as ratios of surface heat flux with and without film cooling. These results, for compound angle injection, indicate that the pulsations cause the film to be spread more uniformly over the test surface than when no pulsations are employed. This is because the pulsations cause the film from compound angle holes to oscillate in both the normal and spanwise directions after it leaves the holes. As a result, the pulsations produce important changes to spatially resolved distributions of surface heat flux ratios, and surface heat transfer coefficient ratios. In spite of these alterations, only small changes to spatially averaged heat transfer coefficient ratios are produced by the pulsations. Spatially averaged surface heat flux ratios, on the other hand, increase considerably at coolant Strouhal numbers larger than unity, with higher rates of increase at larger orientation angles.

The effects of droplet train impingement on spreading-splashing transition and surface heat transfer were investigated experimentally and numerically. Experimentally, a single stream of HFE-7100 droplet train was generated using a piezo-electric droplet generator with the ability to adjust parameters such as droplet impingement frequency, droplet diameter and droplet impingement velocity. A thin layer of Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) was coated on a translucent sapphire substrate, which was used as heating element. High-speed and infrared imaging techniques were employed to characterize the hydrodynamics and heat transfer of droplet train impingement. Numerically, the high frequency droplet train impingement process was simulated using ANSYS-Fluent with the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method [1]. The heat transfer process was simulated by applying constant heat flux conditions on the droplet receiving surface. Droplet-induced spreading-splashing transition behavior was investigated by increasing the droplet Weber number while holding flow rate constant. High speed crown propagation images showed that at low-Weber number (We < 400), droplet impingements resulted in smooth spreading of the droplet-induced crown. However, within the transitional droplet Weber number range (We = 400–500), fingering and splashing (i.e. emergence of secondary droplets) could be observed at the crown’s rim. At high droplet Weber number (We > 800), breakup of the crown was observed during the crown propagation process in which the liquid film behaved chaotically. Droplet-induced spreading-splashing transition phenomena were also investigated numerically. Reasonable agreement was reached between the experimental and numerical results in terms of crown morphology at different droplet Weber number values. The effects of spreading-splashing transition on surface heat transfer were also investigated at fixed flow rate conditions. Time-averaged Infrared (IR) temperature measurements indicate that heat flux-surface temperature curves are linear at low surface temperatures and before the onset of dry-out, which indicate that single phase forced convection is the primary heat transfer mechanism under those conditions. Numerical heat transfer simulations were performed within the single phase forced convection regime only. Instantaneous numerical results reveal that droplet-induced crown propagation effectively convect heat radially outward within the droplet impingement zone. Under high heat flux conditions, a sharp increase in surface temperature was observed experimentally when dry-out appeared on the heater surface. It was also found that strong splashing (We > 800) is unfavorable for heat transfer at high surface temperature due to the onset of instabilities seen in the liquid film, which leads to dry-out conditions. In summary, the results indicate that droplet Weber number is a significant factor in the spreading-splashing transition and surface heat transfer.

The paper presents the results of experimental research on pool boiling heat transfer of dielectric liquid FC-72. Measurements were made at atmospheric pressure on open surfaces with microchannels. Heat transfer surfaces, in the form of parallel milled microchannels, were made of copper. The rectangular cross-sectional microchannels were 0.2 to 0.5 mm deep and 0.2 to 0.4 mm wide. The surfaces, compared to a smooth flat surface, provided a five-fold increase in the heat transfer coefficient and a two-fold increase in the critical heat flux. The article analyses the influence of the width and height of the microchannel on the heat transfer process. The maximum heat flux was 271.7 kW/m2, and the highest heat transfer coefficient obtained was 25 kW/m2K. Furthermore, the experimental results were compared with selected correlations for the nucleate pool boiling.

The influence of freestream turbulence representative of the flow downstream of a modern gas turbine combustor and first stage vane on turbine blade heat transfer has been measured and analytically modeled in a linear, transonic turbine cascade. High intensity, large length-scale freestream turbulence was generated using a passive turbulence-generating grid to simulate the turbulence generated in modern combustors after passing through the first stage vane row. The grid produced freestream turbulence with intensity of approximately 10–12% and an integral length scale of 2 cm (Λx/c = 0.15) near the entrance of the cascade passages. Mean heat transfer results with high turbulence showed an increase in heat transfer coefficient over the baseline low turbulence case of approximately 8% on the suction surface of the blade, with increases on the pressure surface of approximately 17%. Time-resolved surface heat transfer and passage velocity measurements demonstrate strong coherence in velocity and heat flux at a frequency correlating with the most energetic eddies in the turbulence flow field (the integral length-scale). An analytical model was developed to predict increases in surface heat transfer due to freestream turbulence based on local measurements of turbulent velocity fluctuations and length-scale. The model was shown to predict measured increases in heat flux on both blade surfaces in the current data. The model also successfully predicted the increases in heat transfer measured in other work in the literature, encompassing different geometries (flat plate, cylinder, turbine vane and turbine blade) and boundary layer conditions.
