Although jet technology is commonly used to enhance heat transfer processes, the mechanism of heat and moisture transfer using array opposed jet for fabric drying is still unclear. This paper proposes that using opposed jet to enhance the drying process for four different fabric structural types, the influence of jet Reynolds number and excess temperature on the change of fabric moisture content was analyzed using experimental methods, then by defining the fabric as a porous medium containing two-phase components, the flow characteristics and temperature field distribution of the opposed jet were obtained using numerical methods. The results indicated that the four different structural types of fabrics exhibited similar heat-moisture transfer characteristics under the air supply mode of the opposed jet. Furthermore, the critical evaporation temperature of fabrics with hygroscopic properties was higher than that of non-hygroscopic fabrics. When the Reynolds number increased from 649.4 to 2165.3 and the excess temperature increased from 40 ℃ to 70 ℃, the drying time was shortened by a maximum of 56.2 % and 25.5 %, respectively. Under the impact of the array opposed jet, the thermal boundary layer on the fabric surface was thinned, and the local Nusselt number presented different peaks along the length direction of the impinging surface. Within the range of operating conditions considered, at a jet wind speed of 4.5 m/s and an excess temperature of 70 ℃, the maximum surface drying rate of the fabric was achieved. The relative deviations of heat flux and mass flux on the impact surface are all within 10 %. This study provides a theoretical basis for the structural design and drying mechanism exploration of fabric drying equipment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":335,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow","volume":"111 ","pages":"Article 109673"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142748581","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}

Although two-dimensional (2D) TO is favored for its simplicity and lower computational cost, it lacks the accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) TO, omitting certain processes inherent to 3D models. This paper introduces a novel pseudo 3D TO model, which integrates a 2D thermo-fluid design layer with a 2D conductive base plate layer, specifically optimized for chip heat sink designs. Employing the variable density method, we establish a mathematical description of the pseudo 3D TO, incorporating governing equations for flow dynamics and temperature variations in both layers. A distinctive feature of this model is its consideration of thermal coupling in the dimension typically neglected by standard 2D TO models. We applied the pseudo 3D TO model to optimize heat sink structures across various inlet and outlet configurations, followed by rigorous analyses to compare flow and heat transfer performances. These comparisons offer critical insights into the advantages and trade-offs of each configuration. Ultimately, a 3D heat sink was reconstructed from the pseudo 3D optimization results, and a detailed numerical experiment was conducted to assess its thermal performance under realistic conditions, thereby validating the efficacy and reliability of the pseudo 3D TO model. The findings underscore the model’s potential in achieving efficient and practical heat sink designs, balancing accuracy and computational efficiency.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":335,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow","volume":"111 ","pages":"Article 109670"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142705955","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}

The slot and circular free jets and impinging jets are employed to assess the model’s consistency in multiple flow aspects. The impinging surfaces are flat plate and cylinder and air is working fluid. Parameters such as velocity, turbulence intensity, turbulence viscosity ratio and Nusselt number are investigated for free and impinging jets. The free parameters have specific range where C_mix = 0.15–0.95, C_jet = 0–1, C_sep = 0.7–2.5 and C_nw = − 2 to 2.

The effect of different key parameters like fin height, number of fin-rows, fin thickness and number of fins in each row on the thermal-hydrodynamic performance was explored. This study reveals that increasing both fin height and number of fin-rows raises the heat transfer coefficient and friction factor values, but fin thickness negligibly affects the performance. Notably, the average heat transfer coefficient value rises by 25.03 % if the fin height to diameter ratio is increased from 0.1786 to 0.4018, and by 21.4 % if the number of fins is increased from 2 to 6, compared to finless tubes under a mass flow rate of 0.39 kg/s, for three number of fins per row. Compared to the continuously finned tubes, the interrupted-finned tubes have higher heat transfer coefficient values if the interruption length is equal to or less than the fin length, while these values are reduced below that of the continuously finned if the interruption length is larger than the fin length. Clearly, when the interruption length is 3 times the fin length, the heat transfer coefficient value of the continuously finned tube is higher than that of the interrupted-finned one by 3.1 %, while the heat transfer coefficient value of the interrupted-finned tube is higher than that of the continuously finned one by 13.59 %, when the interruption length is reduced to one-third of the fin length.

A higher-order finite difference scheme is adopted to discretize the non-linear Navier–Stokes and energy equations, followed by a stable pseudo-time iterative technique. This study reveals that a lower Richardson number and interaction parameter are sufficient to induce vortex shedding under positive magnetic angles that can not be achieved in case of aligned magnetic field. Increasing the strength of magnetic field tends to restore the symmetric flow structure from the buoyancy-driven asymmetric one, contingent upon the magnetohydrodynamic flow orientations. The coefficients of viscous and pressure drag, average Nusselt number become non-monotonic for the aligned magnetic field, whereas it becomes strictly monotonic for other positive magnetic inclination angles at each Richardson number. Interestingly, increasing magnetic inclination angle allows to augment the total drag coefficient and overall heat transfer drastically. Critical interaction parameter is determined for average Nusselt number at various Richardson and Reynolds numbers under aligned magnetic field.
