Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient

The analysis of heat transfer of automotive exhaust system is most important since their prominence in the design and also in the optimization phase of exhaust after treatment system.This paperdeals with the process which can be useful to predict the overall heat transfer coefficient for the transient flow of pipe in the after treatment system. This considers the convection of heat along gas flow, the convection between gas and wall, conduction through wall, radiation and of course convection to the ambient. Governing equations are obtained for the transient flow in a pipe for calculating gas temperature and wall temperature at distance x and time t. Analytical solution will be computed using CFD techniques for these governing equations. From the obtained analytical solution to the transient flow in pipe an excel tool will be developed which can be able to give the outlet temperature of the pipe in transient flow at length x and time t, total heat loss from pipe to the ambient, overall heat transfer coefficient for the pipe

Change Material

A Nano-Encapsulated Phase-Change Material (NEPCM) suspension is made of nanoparticles containing a Phase Change Material in their core and dispersed in a fluid. These particles can contribute to thermal energy storage and heat transfer by their latent heat of phase change as moving with the host fluid. Thus, such novel nanoliquids are promising for applications in waste heat recovery and thermal energy storage systems. In the present research, the mixed convection of NEPCM suspensions was addressed in a wavy wall cavity containing a rotating solid cylinder. As the nanoparticles move with the liquid, they undergo a phase change and transfer the latent heat. The phase change of nanoparticles was considered as temperature-dependent heat capacity. The governing equations of mass, momentum, and energy conservation were presented as partial differential equations. Then, the governing equations were converted to a non-dimensional form to generalize the solution, and solved by the finite element method. The influence of control parameters such as volume concentration of nanoparticles, fusion temperature of nanoparticles, Stefan number, wall undulations number, and as well as the cylinder size, angular rotation, and thermal conductivities was addressed on the heat transfer in the enclosure. The wall undulation number induces a remarkable change in the Nusselt number. There are optimum fusion temperatures for nanoparticles, which could maximize the heat transfer rate. The increase of the latent heat of nanoparticles (a decline of Stefan number) boosts the heat transfer advantage of employing the phase change particles.

The influence of utilizing different nanofluids types on the liquid cold plate (LCP) is numerically investigated. The thermal and fluid flow performance of LCP is examined by using pure ethylene glycol (EG), Al2O3-EG and CuO-EG. The volume fraction of the nanoparticle for both nanofluid is 2%. The finite volume method (FVM) has been used to solved 3-D steady state, laminar flow and heat transfer governing equations. The presented results indicate that Al2O3-EG able to provide the lowest surface temperature of the heater block followed by CuO-EG and EG, respectively. It is also found that the pressure drop and friction factor are higher for Al2O3-EG and CuO-EG compared to the pure EG.

Analytical models for both unlooped and looped Pulsating Heat Pipes (PHPs) with multiple liquid slugs and vapor plugs are presented in this study. The governing equations are solved using an explicit finite difference scheme to predict the behavior of vapor plugs and liquid slugs. The results show that the effect of gravity on the performance of top heat mode unlooped PHP is insignificant. The effects of diameter, charge ratio, and heating wall temperature on the performance of looped and unlooped PHPs are also investigated. The results also show that heat transfer in both looped and unlooped PHPs is due mainly to the exchange of sensible heat.

In this work, we attempt to establish a general analytical approximation of the convection heat transfer from an isothermal wedge surface to fluids for all Prandtl numbers. The flow has been assumed to be laminar and steady state. The governing equations have been written in dimensionless form using a similarity method. A simple ad hoc technique is used to solve analytically the governing equations by proposing a general formula of the velocity profile. This formula verifies the boundary conditions and the equilibrium of the governing equations in the whole spatial region and permits us to obtain analytically the temperature profiles for all Prandtl numbers and for various configurations of the wedge surface. A comparison with the numerical results is given for all spatial regions and in wide Prandtl number values. A new Nusselt number expression is obtained for various configurations of the wedge surface and compared with the numerical results in wide Prandtl number values.

Abstract While numerous applied studies have successfully demonstrated the feasibility of unsteady cooling solutions, a consensus has yet to be reached on the local instantaneous conditions that result in heat transfer enhancement. The current work aims to experimentally validate a recent analytical solution (on a local time-dependent basis) for the common flow condition of a fully-developed incompressible pulsating flow in a uniformly-heated vessel. The experimental setup is found to approximate the ideal constant heat flux boundary condition well, especially for the decoupled unsteady scenario where the amplitude of the most significant secondary contributions (capacitance and lateral conduction) amounts to 1.2% and 0.2% of the generated heat flux, respectively. Overall, the experimental measurements for temperature and heat flux oscillations are found to coincide well with a recent analytical solution to the energy equation by the authors. Furthermore, local time-dependent heat flux enhancements and degradations are observed to be qualitatively similar to those of wall shear stress from a previous study, suggesting that the thermal performance is indeed influenced by hydrodynamic behaviour.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the heat transfer in an arbitrary cavity filled with porous medium. The geometry of the cavity is such that an isothermal heating source is placed centrally at the bottom of the cavity. The height and width of the heating source is varied to analyses its effect on the heat transfer characteristics. The investigation is carried out for three different cases of outer boundary conditions such as two outside vertical walls being maintained at cold temperature To, two vertical and top horizontal surface being heated to. To and the third case with top surface kept at To but other surfaces being adiabatic. Design/methodology/approach Finite element method is used to solve the governing equations. Findings It is observed that the cavity exhibits unique heat transfer behavior as compared to regular cavity. The cases of boundary conditions are found to affect the heat transfer rate in the porous cavity. Originality/value This is original work representing the heat transfer in irregular porous cavity with various boundary conditions. This work is neither being published nor under review in any other journal.
