The aim of this study is a numerical simulation of unsteady supersonic gas flow in a working path of ramjet engine under conditions identical to aerodynamic tests. Free stream velocity corresponding to Mach numbers M=5 ... 7 are considered. Methodology. Presented study addresses the methods of physical and numerical simulation. The probing device for thermometric that allows to recording the temperature values along the wall of internal duct was proposed. To describe the motion of a viscous heat-conducting gas the unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier - Stokes equations are considered. The flow turbulence is accounted by the modified SST model. The problem was solved in ANSYS Fluent using finite-volume method. The initial and boundary conditions for unsteady calculation are set according to conditions of real aerodynamic tests. The coupled heat transfer for supersonic flow and elements of ramjet engine model are realized by setting of thermophysical properties of materials. The reliability testing of numerical simulation has been made to compare the results of calculations and the data of thermometric experimental tests. Findings. Numerical simulation of aerodynamic tests for ramjet engine was carried out. The agreement between the results of numerical calculations and experimental measurements for the velocity in the channel under consideration was obtained; the error was shown to be 2%. The temperature values were obtained in the area of contact of the supersonic flow with the surface of the measuring device for the external incident flow velocities for Mach numbers M = 5 ... 7. The process of heating the material in the channel that simulated the section of the engine combustion chamber was analyzed. The temperature distribution was studied depending on the position of the material layer under consideration relative to the contact zone with the flow. Value. In the course of the work, the fields of flow around the model of a ramjet engine were obtained, including the region of supersonic flow in the inner part of axisymmetric channel. The analysis of the temperature fields showed that to improve the quality of the results, it is necessary to take into account the depth of the calorimetric sensor. The obtained results will be used to estimate the time of interaction of the supersonic flow with the fuel surface required to reach the combustion temperature.

Flow and heat transfer analysis in ventilated cavities is one of the most widely studied problems in thermo-fluids area. Two-dimensional mixed convection in a ventilated rectangular cavity with baffles is studied numerically and the fluid considered in this study is hot air (Pr = 0.71). The horizontal walls are maintained at a constant temperature, higher than that imposed on the vertical ones. Two very thin heat-conducting baffles are inserted inside the enclosure, on its horizontal walls, to control the flow of convective fluid. The governing equations are discretized using the finite volume method and the SIMPLER algorithm to treat the coupling velocity–pressure. Line by line method is used to solve iteratively the algebraic equations. The effect of the Richardson number Ri (0.01- 100) and the location of the baffles within the cavity on the isothermal lines, streamlines distributions and the average Nusselt number (Nu) has been investigated. The result shows that the location opposite the baffles, close to the fluid outlet, is the optimal choice to be considered for industrial applications.

A solution of the highly complex unsteady compressible flow field inside a cylindrical resonance tube has been obtained numerically, assuming one dimensional, viscous, and heat conducting flow, by solving the appropriate fluid dynamic and energy equations. The resonance tube is approximated by a right circular cylinder closed at one end with a piston oscillating at resonant frequency at the other end. An iterative implicit finite difference scheme is employed to obtain the solution. The scheme permits arbitrary boundary conditions at the piston and the end wall and allows assumptions for transport properties. For the example considered herein, the solution predicts a rise of 95°F in the mean end wall temperature, from 60°F to 155°F, in 14.313 milliseconds which is in good agreement with the experimentally observed values. The solution would also be valid for tapered tubes if the variations in the cross-sectional area are small. In successfully predicting the resonance tube results, an innovative simple but stable solution of unsteady fluid dynamic and energy equations is provided here for wide ranging research, development, and industrial applications in solving a variety of complex fluid flow heat transfer problems. The method is directly applicable to pulsed or pulsating flow and wave motion thermal energy transport, fluid-structure interaction heat transfer enhancement, and fluidic pyrotechnic initiation devices.

One promising future application for a high temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cell (HT-PEFC) stack coupled with a reformer is an auxiliary power unit (APU) for mobile applications using diesel or kerosene which is also used for the main engine. Despite of the high efficiency of a HT-PEFC, the stack has to be cooled during operation. Hence, this work focuses on the investigation of different cooling strategies regarding the complete system, the use of heat transfer oil as cooling medium is fixed in this contribution. In detail, three cooling methods to maintain operating temperature in stacks with more than 1 kW electrical power and large active areas (> 200 cm2 per cell) were analyzed. In the first method heat transfer oil flows through the stack in internal channels that are located on the backside of the cathode-side bipolar plate. In the second cooling arrangement the oil flows through capsuled cooling cells, which are arranged between every third electrochemical cell. For the third cooling method the excellent heat conducting properties of heat pipes are used. Outside the stack, the heat is removed by heat transfer oil from the overlapping heat pipes. These three methods were evaluated experimentally and with CFD simulations. In this paper the detailed measurements of the temperature distributions are presented containing the overall result that all cooling methods are applicable to maintain the temperatures of large HT-PEFC stacks during the operation in an APU system.

The paper considers one of the promising ways to influence the heat transfer in the cooling system of a cylinder-piston group, which is to improve physical properties of coolants. It has been stated that the development of nanotechnology has recently made it possible to significantly increase the thermal conductivity coefficient of base coolant - an aqueous solution of ethylene glycol due to its modification by high-conductive solid multigraphene nanoparticles. The resulting stable two-phase suspensions based on the base coolant and particles of the solid phase are called nanofluids. To evaluate the increase in heat transfer at the “wall-coolant” boundary and the decrease of temperature of this wall when applying nanofluid in the engine cooling system as compared to the base fluid, an experimental setup was developed for simulating the flow of coolant in the annular channel of the cooling cavity of the cylinder liner and the conditions determining the heat transfer in its cooling cavity. As a result of conducting a series of experiments under similar test conditions, a significant increase in the heat transfer coefficient was found at the boundary of the “liner wall-liquid” due to the use of nanofluids with highly heat-conducting multigraphene nanoparticles compared to the base fluid. This led to a decrease in the temperature of the cylinder liner. Reducing the temperature of the heat-loaded engine parts allows to increase the reliability of the promising and forced diesel engines, to increase the degree of boosting at the average effective pressure while maintaining the permissible temperature level of the parts of the cylinder-piston group. Intensification of heat transfer at the “wall-liquid” interface contributes to an increase in the thermal efficiency of various heat exchangers as part of an internal combustion engine associated with the main circuit of the cooling system.

The main prerequisites for the development of wooden housing construction in Russia are given, which determined the goal of this study - to develop a mathematical model of heat and mass transfer (moisture transfer) in glued timber for rational design of enclosing structures. Lamellas can be classified as a capillary ‒ porous body. leaning on theory of academician A.V. Lykov, the formulation of the problem of heat and mass transfer in a multilayer glued laminated timber is presented a system of equations describing non-stationary heat, mass and pressure transfer under real possible operating conditions of enclosing structures is considered. An analytical method is proposed for calculating both individual lamellas and the entire multilayer glued beam. The proposed technique allows the method of solving the inverse problem to directly calculate the resistance value of the entire bar from the unsteady temperature field. The system of equations describing the process is nonlinear and analytically insoluble. To solve the problem, a combined method for solving boundary value problems of heat transfer was used, which is based on a combination of elements of analytical and numerical solutions. A feature of the problem under consideration is that the middle lamella has heat-conducting inclusions in the form of a bough. Method is that the entire heat transfer process is divided into a number of small time intervals. Within each interval, we assume that the temperature is constant at the interface between layers and a constant heat flux through the contacting surfaces, i.e. perfect thermal contact.

The hydrodynamics of immiscible micropolar fluids are important in a variety of engineering problems, including biofluid dynamics of arterial blood flows, pharmacodynamics, Principle of Boundary layers, lubrication technology, short waves for heat-conducting fluids, sediment transportation, magnetohydrodynamics, multicomponent hydrodynamics, and electrohydrodynamic. Motivated by the development of biological fluid modeling and medical diagnosis instrumentation, this article examines the collective impacts of ion slip, viscous dissipation, Joule heating, and Hall current on unsteady generalized magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Couette flow of two immiscible fluids. Two non-Newtonian incompressible magnetohydrodynamic micropolar and micropolar dusty (fluid-particle suspension) fluids are considered in a horizontal duct with heat transfer. No-slip boundary conditions are assumed at the channel walls and constant pressure gradient. Continuous shear stress and fluid velocity are considered across the interface between the two immiscible fluids. The coupled partial differential equations are formulated for fluids and particle phases and the velocities, temperatures, and microrotation profiles are obtained. Under the physically realistic boundary and interfacial conditions, the Modified cubic-Bspline differential quadrature approach (MCB-DQM) is deployed to obtain numerical results. The influence of the magnetic, thermal, and other pertinent parameters, i.e. Hartmann magnetic number, Eckert (dissipation) number, Reynolds number, Prandtl number, micropolar material parameters, Hall and ion-slip parameters, particle concentration parameter, viscosity ratio, density ratio, and time on velocity, microrotation, and temperature characteristics are illustrated through graphs. The MCB-DQM is found to be in good agreement with accuracy and the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number are also explored. It is found that fluids and particle velocities are reduced with increasing Hartmann numbers whereas they are elevated with increment in ion-slip and Hall parameters. Temperatures are generally enhanced with increasing Eckert number and viscosity ratio. The simulations are relevant to nuclear heat transfer control, MHD energy generators, and electromagnetic multiphase systems in chemical engineering.
