Although much of the simulation work in the literature relies on two-dimensional analyses, this study developed a three-dimensional CFD simulation model using Ansys-Fluent. The Eulerian mixture formulation with the volume of fluid (VOF) method was employed. It is shown that the developed model accurately simulates the boiling behavior in impingement cooling using circular water jets. The main parameters used in the simulation were: initial surface temperature of 700 °C, and jet velocity of <span>(0.4,m/s)</span> impinging from a nozzle at <span>(8,mm)</span> height from the heated surface. The 3D mesh has been refined in a way to maintain a <span>({y}^{+})</span> value of 1 at the heated surface to capture the physics on the surface and to ensure that the viscous boundary layer is captured. Results such as temperature drop, boiling curve, and bubble frequency were presented and verified with the available experimental work in the literature. The developed mixture simulation using Ansys-Fluent has demonstrated its capability to numerically simulate the temperature history and boiling curves in the impingement process. This advancement will facilitate the study of numerous industrial parameters that are challenging to investigate experimentally.</p>","PeriodicalId":12908,"journal":{"name":"Heat and Mass Transfer","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140799987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This design is inspired by the mini wire-plate heat pipe concept. This work is the first in the literature to apply this technology to large size heat pipes. A theoretical model is devised and used to predict the fluid distribution along the heat pipe, detect regions of flooding and dry-out and determine the best charging volume. Experiments are performed with a stainless-steel device operating in horizontal orientation with water as working fluid. Electrical cartridge resistances play the role of the evaporator heat source, while the condenser is cooled by either natural convection and radiation or heat exchangers linked to a thermal bath. For the experiments using a device with an exposed condenser, the minimum thermal resistance is 0.147 °C/W, for 88.50 W for heat input. The operation temperature increases with heat input up to 326.56 °C for a heat load of 191.40 W. The thermal resistances of the heat pipe cooled by heat exchangers have a minimum of 0.123 °C/W at 171.57 W heat transport rate, for a 40 °C thermal bath temperature. The theoretical results and data obtained so far corroborate the feasibility of this technology, with devices able to transfer up to 22.18 W per groove.</p>","PeriodicalId":12908,"journal":{"name":"Heat and Mass Transfer","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140561323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These issues ultimately contribute to the deterioration of the long-term dependability of such devices. The present study provides an analysis of the steady-state performance of the flexible heat transfer device under various heat loads and orientations (0°, 45°, and 90° angles).

The performance is evaluated in terms of thermal resistance, equivalent thermal conductivity, and average temperature difference across the evaporator and condenser. Under steady-state operation, it has been determined that the flexible heat transfer device exhibits a minimum thermal resistance of 2.3 °C/W.

Therefore, thin-film heat flux sensors (TFHFS) are generally used to measure the heat flux in such applications due to their high sensitivity and quick response time. The present study demonstrates that increasing the annealing heat treatment temperature will enhance the adhesion of the thin film and the capabilities of these hand-made TFHFS for transient measurements at low temperatures and for short periods. In the present work, TFHFS is fabricated in-house using platinum as a sensing element and Macor as an insulating substrate. The sensitivity (S) and temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) are estimated using an oil batch calibration technique. At the same time, the performance of TFHFS is tested in a dynamic convective environment. The TFHFS is exposed to the convective environment using a designed calibration set-up, and their transient heat fluxes are computed by conducting several trials. Additionally, the numerical solution has been accomplished using various experimental parameters.
