Gaukel","doi":"10.11159/ffhmt22.157","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.11159/ffhmt22.157","url":null,"abstract":"- The Air-Core-Liquid-Ring (ACLR) atomization is an innovative internal-mixing pneumatic atomization technique, suitable for energy-efficient spray drying because of its ability to handle highly viscous liquid feeds with high solid contents. However, pneumatic atomizers such as the ACLR can suffer from unstable internal flow conditions, which may lead to a wide variation in the droplet diameter obtained. Therefore, the internal flow conditions of an ACLR-atomizer prototype needed to be studied and comprehended. With that in mind, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model was developed, and tested with experimental data collected for different gas pressures and liquid feed viscosities. A mesh independence study, as well as some testing of Physics models were performed. A mixed polyhedral – prismatic mesh was generated, and the k-ω SST model was selected as it showed a good balance between representation of the turbulence in the system and computational effort. The predicted average lamella thickness is similar with experimental results, with an average 10 % error, but the thickness variations observed in the experiments dampen quickly over time in the simulations. This is not the case in the experiments with the higher viscous maltodextrin solution. Therefore, further model refining has still to be done. Nonetheless, the flow behaves as expected in the CFD simulation with changes in pressure and liquid viscosity. This opens up the possibilities of doing more in-detail CFD studies of the effect of liquid feed properties and geometrical variations of the nozzle.","PeriodicalId":308878,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fluid Flow, Heat and Mass Transfer","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121922015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Natural convection in concentric annuli has also been a popular topic in the literature for decades due to the applications in nanotechnology and energy storage systems. In this study, numerical simulations are performed to investigate magnetohydrodynamic natural convection heat transfer in a horizontal concentric annulus with internal straight, Y-shapes, and T-shaped fins approximated as thin layers. A mix of transient and steady state simulations are conducted using COMSOL Multiphysics® with constant temperature boundary conditions to generate laminar natural convection profiles in the enclosure filled with a eutectic In-Ga-Sn alloy. The average Nusselt number (Nu) at the outer boundary is calculated to compare all simulation results. The Rayleigh number (Ra) is varied to investigate the stability of the flow profile over time, first without fins and then with straight fins. The three fin geometries are then compared at various Ra values to gauge their relative performance, and lastly the magnetic field is implemented at constant Ra for various Hartmann numbers (Ha). The fins are found to increase the stability of the flow profile over time, while the Y-shaped fins increase Nu by up to 318.7% compared to no fins at Ra = 10 4 . The magnetic field forces more even heat dissipation through the enclosure, and at Ha = 20, Nu increases by a further 78.1% for the Y-shaped fins at Ra = 10 4 .","PeriodicalId":308878,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fluid Flow, Heat and Mass Transfer","volume":"18 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127005596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nowadays there are not only the shell-and-tube types as there were at the beginning. They are lightweight, easy to machine and forming. Due to the corrosion and chemical resistance, they have a potential in the chemical applications. The low thermal conductive of plastics is overcome by usage of thin wall which makes them an alternative in low temperature application. This study focusses on the special cases where the polymeric hollow fiber heat exchanger can be used in temperatures higher than recommended. Two experiments were done. The polyamide hollow fiber heat exchanger was placed inside the wind tunnel with flue gas flowed and the water at coolant side. In such a setup the heat exchanger can withstand the temperature higher than suitable for operating and even the temperature of melting point.","PeriodicalId":308878,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fluid Flow, Heat and Mass Transfer","volume":"89 7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126320036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
