Thermal Radiation Effect

Two structures of metallic thermal protection system(TPS) for hypersonic vehicle were presented. One model was a multi-layer construction and the other has cavities in the metallic layer. Numerical simulations were conducted on the three-dimensional TPS models using CFD software of Gambit and Fluent. Two heating temperatures of 1073K and 773K with constant temperature and isothermal boundary conditions were considered. Heat transfer was treated as single conductivity and thermal radiation effect was not involved. The results of simulation investigation showed that: The metallic layer had poor capability to restrict the heat conductivity. Heat was easier to transfer across the bracket into the internal part of the TPS. The ability of cavities in metallic layer to resist heat conductivity was limited. The temperature-heating time variation pattern was similar for different external heating temperature. Internal cooling was important for the TPS. The thermal radiation effect on the TPS would be focused in further research.

Heat Transfer Characteristics

An analysis was carried out to study the effect of thermal radiation on magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow and heat transfer characteristics of a non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid near the stagnation point of a vertical stretching sheet in a porous medium with internal heat generation–absorption. The flow is generated because of linear stretching of the sheet and influenced by the uniform magnetic field that is applied horizontally in the flow region. Using a similarity variable, the governing nonlinear partial differential equations have been transformed into a set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically using an accurate implicit finite difference scheme. A comparison of the obtained results with previously published numerical results is done and the results are found to be in good agreement. The effects of the viscoelastic fluid parameter, magnetic field parameter, nonuniform heat source–sink, and the thermal radiation parameter on the heat transfer characteristics are presented graphically and discussed. The values of the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number are tabulated for both cases of assisting and opposing flows.
