In the present study, the liquid metal mixed convection is experimentally studied by adopting GaInSn, which remains in a liquid state at room temperature. The test section is a duct with a cross-area of 50 mm × 50 mm and a length of 3 m made of stainless steel. By installing the thermocouples, flow meter, and differential pressure transducers on the experimental system, the corresponding flow and heat transfer characteristics can be identified with considering the influence of flow rate and heat flux density. The present results show that, compared to forced convection, the Nusselt number (<em>Nu</em>) of mixed convection decreased first and then increased with the increase of Reynolds number (<em>Re</em>). There exists a critical <em>Re</em><sub>c</sub> when <em>Nu</em> reaches a minimum value, and <em>Re</em><sub>c</sub> increases with the increase of the Grashof number (<em>Gr</em>). It is a consequence of flow layering, plume sweeping, and bulk heat entrapment, due to the competition between buoyancy and shear forces, which can be described by the Richardson number (<em>Ri</em>). The change tendency of <em>Nu</em> as a function of <em>Ri</em> indicates that the threshold value of <em>Ri</em><sub>c</sub> is around 1. An empirical correlation is obtained to predict <em>Nu</em> for GaInSn mixed convection when <em>Pe</em> < 1000. The variation of the local <em>Nu</em> in flow direction indicates the existence of the onset of mixed convection in the flow direction, which is further confirmed by the power spectral density.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":335,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow","volume":"116 ","pages":"Article 109995"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144724777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to develop a novel 3D topology-optimized cold plate design method based on Murray’s law to enhance the thermal management performance of lithium-ion batteries. To address the limitations of the conventional approach that directly stretches 2D topology optimization results to form 3D cold plates, a new design strategy involving secondary optimization based on Murray’s law is proposed to generate scientifically improved 3D cold plate structures. Numerical simulations are employed to systematically investigate the effects of cold plate type, inlet mass flow rate, coolant and ambient temperatures, and channel depth on the performance of the cold plates. The optimal channel depth for each hydraulic diameter is identified. The results indicate that, under identical conditions, the optimized cold plate (OP) achieves a heat transfer coefficient improvement of up to 122.12 % compared to the conventional stretched plate (SP), significantly enhancing battery temperature control. Moreover, the Performance Evaluation Criterion (PEC) of the OP increases by up to 55.36 % relative to the SP, and can be further improved by 34.84 % through channel depth optimization. The study also reveals that for each inlet hydraulic diameter, the optimal channel depth is 0.5 mm greater than that of the corresponding SP.

In the present study, we focus on three methods, that is, the spectral filtering based on streamwise wavelength (SF), proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), and clustering methodology (CM), and assess their ability of capturing the statistical characteristics predicted by the AEM. It is found that based on two-dimensional instantaneous flow fields, the SF method demonstrates the best performance in capturing the statistical laws of velocity gradients and Hessians, followed by CM, while POD proves inadequate for capturing the scaling laws of velocity gradients and Hessians. Moreover, a parametric analysis is carried out to discuss in detail the specific effects of various parameters in each method on the statistical moments.
