The Heat Transfer Coefficient

This paper proposes an effective method for determining thermal stresses in structural elements with a three-dimensional transient temperature field. This is the situation in the case of pressure elements of complex shapes. When the thermal stresses are determined by the finite element method (FEM), the temperature of the fluid and the heat transfer coefficient on the internal surface must be known. Both values are very difficult to determine under industrial conditions. In this paper, an inverse space marching method was proposed for the determination of the heat transfer coefficient on the active surface of the thick-walled plate. The temperature and heat flux on the exposed surface were obtained by measuring the unsteady temperature in a small region on the insulated external surface of a pressure component that is easily accessible. Three different procedures for the determination of the heat transfer coefficient on the water-spray surface were presented, with the division of the plate into three or four finite volumes in the normal direction to the plate surface. Calculation and experimental tests were carried out in order to validate the method. The results of the measurements and calculations agreed very well. The computer calculation time is short, so the technique can be used for online stress determination. The proposed method can be applied to monitor thermal stresses in the components of the power unit in thermal power plants, both conventional and nuclear.

Thick-wall components of the thermal power unit limit maximum heating and cooling rates during start-up or shut-down of the unit. A method of monitoring the thermal stresses in thick-walled components of thermal power plants is presented. The time variations of the local heat transfer coefficient on the inner surface of the pressure component are determined based on the measurement of the wall temperature at one or six points respectively for one- and three-dimensional unsteady temperature fields in the component. The temperature sensors are located close to the internal surface of the component. A technique for measuring the fastchanging fluid temperature was developed. Thermal stresses in pressure components with complicated shapes can be computed using FEM (Finite Element Method) based on experimentally estimated fluid temperature and heat transfer coefficient

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a method of determining the transient temperature of the inner surface of thick-walled elements. The method can be used to determine thermal stresses in pressure elements. Design/methodology/approach An inverse marching method is proposed to determine the transient temperature of the thick-walled element inner surface with high accuracy. Findings Initially, the inverse method was validated computationally. The comparison between the temperatures obtained from the solution for the direct heat conduction problem and the results obtained by means of the proposed inverse method is very satisfactory. Subsequently, the presented method was validated using experimental data. The results obtained from the inverse calculations also gave good results. Originality/value The advantage of the method is the possibility of determining the heat transfer coefficient at a point on the exposed surface based on the local temperature distribution measured on the insulated outer surface. The heat transfer coefficient determined experimentally can be used to calculate thermal stresses in elements with a complex shape. The proposed method can be used in online computer systems to monitor temperature and thermal stresses in thick-walled pressure components because the computing time is very short.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Development of the heat transfer surfaces on the tube inside makes it very difficult or even impossible to determine the heat transfer coefficient analytically. This paper presents the experimental determination of the coefficient in an internally rifled tube with spiral ribs. The tests are carried out on a laboratory stand constructed at the Institute of Thermal Power Engineering of the Cracow University of Technology. The tube under analysis has found application in a supercritical circulating fluidized bed boiler. The heat transfer coefficient local values are determined for the Reynolds numbers included in the range of ~6000 to ~50000 and for three ranges of the heating elements power. As the medium flows through internally rifled tubes with spiral ribs, the heat transfer process gets intensified compared to similar processes taking place in smooth tubes. Based on the obtained experimental data, a correlation is developed enabling determination of the dimensionless Chilton-Colburn j factor. The equation form is selected so that a comparison with existing results of tests performed on rifled tubes can be made. Comparing the Nusselt number values calculated based on the developed correlation with those obtained using other correlations described in the literature, it can be observed that the criterial number is about twice higher. The research results confirm the thesis that the element internal geometry has a sub-stantial impact on the heat transfer process.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Abstract In present the study, sudden cooling, in other words thermal shock, is applied to a plate that is originally a functionally graded material (FGM). The flat plate is assumed to have an edge crack on it. Hence a numerical couple-field analysis is performed on the plate. The FGM is a combination of Ni and Al2O3. The thermal and mechanical properties of the FGM are assumed to depend on temperature variation. The mixing percentages of the Ni and Al2O3 throughout the plate are considered to vary (i) linearly, (ii) quadratically and (iii) in half-order. In order to solve the problem, a new subroutine depending on temperature is written using APDL (ANSYS Parametric Design Language) codes. Three values of the heat transfer coefficient are applied to the initially heated plate. As a result, the transient temperature variation and stress intensity factor are presented to show the thermo-mechanical relation of the plate. The material properties changing with temperature results in more reliable temperature values. Increasing the heat transfer coefficient results in better cooling and in a lesser amount of time to reach ambient air temperature.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

The parallel hot wire technique is considered an effective and accurate means of experimental measurement of thermal conductivity. However, the assumptions of infinite medium and ideal infinitely thin and long heat source lead to some restrictions in the applicability of this technique. To make an effective experiment design, a numerical analysis should be carried out a priori, which requires a precise specification of the heating source strength and the heat transfer coefficient on the external surface. In this work, a more accurate physical and mathematical modeling of an experimental setup based on the parallel hot wire method is considered to estimate the two above-mentioned parameters from noisy temperature histories measured inside the material. Based on a sensitivity analysis, the heating source strength is estimated first using early time measurements. With such estimated value, determination of the heat transfer coefficient using temperatures measured at later times is then considered. The Levenberg–Marquardt (LM) method is successfully applied using a single experiment for the inverse solution of the two present parameter estimation problems. Estimates of this gradient-based deterministic method are validated with a stochastic method (Kalman filter). The effects of the measurement location, the heating duration, the measurement time step, and the LM parameter on the estimates and their associated confidence bounds are investigated. Used in the traditional fitting procedure of the parallel hot wire technique, the estimated heating source power provides a reasonable agreement between fitted and exact values of the thermal conductivity and the thermal diffusivity.
