The majority of literature for gas turbine cooling applications considers jet impingement using square, or sharp-edged orifices. However, the edge of the jet orifices generally has some degree of filleting (or rounding) along the edges, due to casting the airfoils or material wear due to long-term operation. Engineers need data under realistic engine configurations to improve the utilization of coolant while adequately protecting the airfoil. The current experimental study is a parametric investigation of heat transfer and pressure loss for leading edge jet impingement, where the effects of jet Reynolds number (Re = 10,000 - 100,000), jet - to - jet spacing (s/d = 2 - 8), jet - to - target surface spacing (z/d = 2 - 4), surface curvature (D/d = 2.67 - 5.33), and jet fillet - to - jet plate thickness (r/l = 0.16 - 0.5) are each considered. The edge rounding at both the inlet and outlet of the jet plate yields reduced heat transfer compared to the square edged jets. However, the fillets significantly improve the discharge coefficients associated with the racetrack shaped orifices. With the extensive testing completed in this study, design correlations have been developed to predict the surface Nusselt number and discharge coefficients, with 10% and 19% deviation from experimental results, respectively. Engine designers can predict the level of heat transfer and pressure loss for leading edge jet impingement using these correlations.","PeriodicalId":15937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Heat Transfer-transactions of The Asme","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88991331","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}

The heat load sharing mode is a function of MLHPs that can share the heat between the evaporators through the vapor without electronic power for the heat storage utilization. A visualized MLHP with two evaporators and one condenser was designed and fabricated. To simulate the heat load sharing mode in the MLHP, one evaporator was heated in the range of 40-280 W and the other evaporator was cooled using a water jacket in the range of 10-80 °C. Under the heat load sharing mode, the flow behaviors in the evaporator cores and the compensation chambers (CCs) were visually observed using borescope cameras, respectively. Moreover, two operating modes (defined as Mode A and Mode B) that affect the maximum heat sharing capability were identified. In Mode A, the heat sharing rate was proportional to the heat dissipation at the cooled side of evaporator, where the capillary force at the wick significantly affect the operation mode. By contrast, in Mode B the heat sharing rate reached the upper limit and then was constant regardless of the heat dissipation. Furthermore, the proposed concept model can predict the transition of the operation mode from Mode A to Mode B.","PeriodicalId":15937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Heat Transfer-transactions of The Asme","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73657659","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}

However, the Euclidean geometry cannot accurately depict the random distribution of pores within MFs. To this end, the present study aims to analyze how such thin coatings affect the ETC of MF by employing the fractal theory to depict the random distribution of its open pores. Subsequently, a cubic representative structure (RS) is chosen for self-similar pores in the fractal to establish a correlation between the geometric parameters of MF and its fractal dimension. Upon determining the thermal resistance provided a RS of the foam having coated hollow ligaments, its ETC is derived as a function of fractal dimension, dimensionless parameters of pore size, porosity, and thermal conductivity of relevant materials (e.g., ligaments, coatings, and filling medium). For validation, existing experimental data are used to compare with analytical predictions, with good agreement achieved. It is demonstrated that the ligament hollowness weakens the thermal conduction of MFs. In addition, when the coating has a thermal conductivity greater than that of ligament, the coating enhances the ability of the foam to conduct heat. Although the ligament hollowness and coating thickness are imperative factors affecting the ETC, the material makes of ligament and coating plays a decisive role in the ETC.","PeriodicalId":15937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Heat Transfer-transactions of The Asme","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84594944","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}

Bubble injections in a quiescent (pseudo-turbulent) liquid phase or an already turbulent liquid phase had been shown to enhance the natural convective heat transfer from literature. However, study of the combined effect of bubble size and gas volume fraction rather than individual effect on natural convective heat transfer enhancement for homogeneous bubbly flow is lacking. The present work intends to fill in that data gap through conducting numerical simulations to study the combined effect of bubble size and gas volume fraction on natural convective heat transfer enhancement. The present numerical work employs a validated interphase force models and the Eulerian-Eulerian model. ANSYS FLUENT is used to simulate a bubbly flow in a three-dimensional rectangular channel with a natural convective heat transfer. Bubbles ranging from micro to millimeter diameter with inlet gas volume fraction varied in the range of 0.351-3.725% are injected upward to a quiescent liquid phase in a rectangular channel with a heated left wall and a cooled right wall. The flow regime is homogeneous without bubble coalescence and breakup effect. Validated computational models are employed to study the combined effect of bubble size and gas volume fraction on heat transfer enhancement. A relation between Nusselt number, bubble Reynolds number, Rayleigh number, nondimensional bubble size, and inlet gas volume fraction is constructed using the power regression method.","PeriodicalId":15937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Heat Transfer-transactions of The Asme","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90111014","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}

The importance of the nonlinear density variation with temperature (NDT) and convective heating is also analysed. The governing equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using the similarity variables and solved in MAPLE 2022 by a Runge-Kutta Ferhlberg fourth-fifth order (RKF45) scheme. The results obtained show that, with an increase in the convection process, the internal heat generation convects more fluid away and consequently reduced the rate of heat flowing back into the plate. For a weak internal heat generation λx = 0.5, the plate temperature is less than one (1) and the heat is observed to flow from the plate into the fluid on the surface of the right plate. Furthermore, for weak convection and nonlinear thermal radiation effects, the rate at which the heat flows into the plate increases with the convective heat transfer parameter increase. However, for a strong nonlinear thermal radiation effect, the rate a which the heat flows out of the plate increases. The flow feature is not only governed by the rate of internal heat generation but the generation as well reverses the heat flow from the plate since the temperature of the right plate surface T is much higher than the fluid temperature on the left plate surface Tf.","PeriodicalId":15937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Heat Transfer-transactions of The Asme","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81144345","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 investigation seeks to substantially boost the thermal compactness of a widely used gas-to-liquid heat exchanger, called finned tube arrays. For that purpose, winglet-type vortex generators are adopted. The novelty of the present study lies in the fact that it uses regression analysis to develop thermo-hydraulic functional correlations corresponding to three diverse design parameters of winglet-type vortex generators: the attack angle, the location and the geometric aspect ratio. In addition, enhancement in the wake-affected heat transfer is specifically examined, followed by a proof-of-concept study by making the best design(s) of vortex generators perform under widely varying operating conditions. Based on a thermo-hydraulic assessment of the generators' attack angle, 45-degrees is the limiting value of optimal attack angle. Although multiple winglet locations are found to deliver the desired thermal augmentation, a few locations incur disproportionate flow loss whereas majority locations facilitate linearized thermal augmentation. It is encouraging to find that the relative Colburn j-factor of the modified heat exchanger increases with the Reynolds number, despite the absolute values bearing an inverse correlation. While the highest augmentation in the average Colburn j-factor equals 44.1%, it is 150.1% over the wake-affected fin surface.","PeriodicalId":15937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Heat Transfer-transactions of The Asme","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76679392","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}

The model is extensively validated through simulations of benchmark problems such as arbitrary evaporation of a static drop and reproduction of psychrometric data. The results show that the Sherwood number (Sh) and the Nusselt number (Nu) reach a steady value after an initial transient period for the drop subjected to Hagen-Poiseuille flow.
