Rib Roughened

Experiments are performed to determine the local heat transfer performance in a rotating serpentine passage with rib-roughened surfaces. The ribs are placed on the trailing and leading walls in a corresponding posited arrangement with an angle of attack of 90 deg. The rib height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio, e/Dh, is 0.0787 and the rib pitch-to-height ratio, s/e, is 11. The throughflow Reynolds number is varied, typically at 23,000, 47,000, and 70,000 in the passage both at rest and in rotation. In the rotation cases, the rotation number is varied from 0.023 to 0.0594. Results for the rib-roughened serpentine passages are compared with those of smooth ones in the literature. Comparison is also made on results for the rib-roughened passages between the stationary and rotating cases. It is disclosed that a significant enhancement is achieved in the heat transfer in both the stationary and rotating cases resulting from an installation of the ribs. Both the rotation and Rayleigh numbers play important roles in the heat transfer performance on both the trailing and leading walls. Although the Reynolds number strongly influences the Nusselt numbers in the rib-roughened passage of both the stationary and rotating cases, Nuo and Nu, respectively, it has little effect on their ratio Nu/Nuo.

The objective of this study was to investigate, through experiments, the combined effects of a sharp 180 deg turn and rib patterns on the pressure drop performance and distributions of the local heat transfer coefficient in an entire two-pass rib-roughened channel with a 180 deg turn. The rib pitch-to-equivalent diameter ratio P/de was 1.0, the rib-height-to-equivalent diameter ratio e/de was 0.09, and the rib angle relative to the main flow direction was varied from 30 ∼ 90 deg with an interval of 15 deg. Experiments were conducted for Reynolds numbers in the range 4000 ∼ 30,000. It was disclosed that, due to the interactions between the bend-induced secondary flow and the rib-induced secondary flow, the combination of rib patterns in the channel before and after the turn causes considerable differences in the pressure drop and heat transfer performance of the entire channel.

This paper describes an experimental study of heat transfer in a radially rotating square duct with two opposite walls roughened by 45deg staggered ribs. Air coolant flows radially outward in the test channel with experiments to be undertaken that match the actual engine conditions. Laboratory-scale heat transfer measurements along centerlines of two rib-roughened surfaces are performed with Reynolds number (Re), rotation number (Ro), and density ratio (Δρ∕ρ) in the ranges of 7500–15,000, 0–1.8, and 0.076–0.294. The experimental rig permits the heat transfer study with the rotation number considerably higher than those studied in other researches to date. The rotational influences on cooling performance of the rib-roughened channel due to Coriolis forces and rotating buoyancy are studied. A selection of experimental data illustrates the individual and interactive impacts of Re, Ro, and buoyancy number on local heat transfer. A number of experimental-based observations reveal that the Coriolis force and rotating buoyancy interact to modify heat transfer even if the rib induced secondary flows persist in the rotating channel. Local heat transfer ratios between rotating and static channels along the centerlines of stable and unstable rib-roughened surfaces with Ro varying from 0.1 to 1.8 are in the ranges of 0.6–1.6 and 1–2.2, respectively. Empirical correlations for periodic flow regions are developed to permit the evaluation of interactive and individual effects of ribflows, convective inertial force, Coriolis force, and rotating buoyancy on heat transfer.

Rib Roughened

An experimental study is performed to investigate the heat transfer characteristics and frictional losses in a rib roughened channel combined with detached pin-fins. The overall channel geometry (W = 76.2 mm, E = 25.4 mm) simulates an internal cooling passage of wide aspect ratio (3:1) in a gas turbine airfoil. With a given pin diameter, D = 6.35 mm = [1/4]E, three different pin-fin height-to-diameter ratios, H/D = 4, 3, and 2, were examined. Each of these three cases corresponds to a specific pin array geometry of detachment spacing (C) between the pin-tip and one of the endwalls, i.e., C/D = 0, 1, 2, respectively. The rib height-to-channel height ratio is 0.0625. Two newly proposed cross ribs, namely the broken rib and full rib are evaluated in this effort. The broken ribs are positioned in between two consecutive rows of pin-fins, while the full ribs are fully extended adjacent to the pin-fins. The Reynolds number, based on the hydraulic diameter of the unobstructed cross section and the mean bulk velocity, ranges from 10,000 to 25,000. The experiment employs a hybrid technique based on transient liquid crystal imaging to obtain distributions of the local heat transfer coefficient over all of the participating surfaces, including the endwalls and all pin elements. The presence of ribs enhances local heat transfer coefficient on the endwall substantially by approximately 20% to 50% as compared to the neighboring endwall. In addition, affected by the rib geometry, which is a relatively low profile as compared to the overall height of the channel, the pressure loss seems to be insensitive to the presence of the ribs. However, from the overall heat transfer enhancement standpoint, the baseline cases (without ribs) outperform cases with broken ribs or full ribs.

Turbulent Flow Regime

Repeated ribs are frequently employed to promote turbulence and to enhance heat transfer in various ducts. In the present study, liquid crystal thermography has applied to the study of heat transfer from a square channel having one surface heated at uniform heat flux and roughened by repeated ribs. The continuous and truncated ribs, having square sections, with height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio of 0.15, were deployed normal to the mainstream direction of flow. Detailed distributions of the local heat transfer coefficient were obtained at various Reynolds number within the turbulent flow regime. Averaged data were calculated in order to evaluate the augmentation of heat transfer by the presence of different ribs.

Rib Roughened

The combined effects of rib alignment and channel aspect ratio on the distributions of the local heat transfer coefficient and on the friction factors for developing and fully developed flow in short square and rectangular channels (L/DH = 13.5–18) with a pair of opposite rib-roughened walls were determined for Reynolds numbers ranging from 13,000 to 130,000. The channel aspect ratios are 1/2 and 1 and the rib alignment configurations are arranged as staggered and in-line types, respectively. The pitch to rib height ratio is 5.31 for all test channels. The local heat transfer distributions on the bottom rib-roughened wall from the channel entrance to the downstream region are presented and discussed. Semi-empirical heat transfer and friction correlations are developed, and the results are compared with those of previous investigations for similarly configured channels, which were roughened by regularly spaced transverse ribs.
