A periodic heat transfer model with constant wall temperature is employed across a range of Reynolds numbers, covering both laminar and turbulent regimes. The analysis shows that stretching the TPMS structure enhances thermal and hydraulic performance, up to 15 times depending on criteria. For a fixed heat transfer rate, stretching the TPMS reduces the relative pumping power, volume, and/or frontal area required.

In contrast to homogeneous materials, the thermal conductivity of soils, especially when they are unsaturated, is highly complex due to the intricate interactions among solid, water, and air phases. Water saturation is one of the most important factors influencing the thermal conductivity. Current models for predicting thermal conductivity, whether empirical, based on mixing theories, or grounded in percolation theory frequently exhibit limitations under varied environmental conditions. To address these challenges, in this study a new model is developed for predicting the thermal conductivity of unsaturated soils, utilizing the Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) as a fundamental tool. The proposed approach explicitly links pore-scale thermal conductivity to pore size distribution, subsequently upscaling this relationship to predict normalized thermal conductivity at the macroscale. The model incorporates two parameters, <em>n</em><sub>1</sub> and <em>η</em>, both of which are strongly related to the pore size distribution. The parameter <em>n</em><sub>1</sub> is derived from the SWCC while an empirical correlation is suggested between <em>n</em><sub>1</sub> and <em>η</em>, facilitating practical implementation. The model’s accuracy is validated against a wide range of experimental datasets, demonstrating reliable prediction performance across various soil types and temperature conditions.

A better understanding of thermal transport processes in phase-change flows is critical for developing novel two-phase design tools for naval scientists and engineers. This study investigates interfacial phase change and flow dynamics during condensation flow through numerical simulations. An enhanced phase change model, incorporating a mass transfer intensity coefficient dependent on condensation film thickness, is implemented for vertical downflow condensation. A two-dimensional homogeneous two-phase Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes model, coupled with the Shear-Stress Transport <em>k</em>-<em>ω</em> turbulence model, is employed. The developed solver is thoroughly evaluated against varying mass transfer functions and mesh resolutions, demonstrating minimal dependence on condensation surface temperature predictions. Subsequently, four test cases with varying mass flow rates of 108.67 – 413.0 kg/m<sup>2</sup>s and surface heat fluxes of 3.46 – 8.67 W/cm<sup>2</sup> are investigated to validate the model against experimental data. The predicted surface temperature profiles along the tube show excellent agreement with measurements, with mean absolute errors below 2.0 % across all cases. Additionally, detailed interfacial phase change and flow characteristics, including temperature and velocity distributions, are analyzed. The results reveal that the liquid film condensation thickness increases and becomes progressively unstable along the tube. Condensation mass transfer predominantly occurs at the liquid-vapor interface within a thin boundary layer. Furthermore, temperature and velocity profiles within the liquid film exhibit high gradients near the condensation surface and the liquid-vapor interface, following similar trends. Lastly, the influence of turbulence modeling on thermal transport is investigated, particularly the damping factor, and is found to significantly affect surface condensation heat transfer and interfacial liquid-vapor dynamics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":336,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer","volume":"247 ","pages":"Article 127149"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143869319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To incorporate the IB force and the heat source/sink, the external forcing term and an extra source term are introduced to the kinetic model. The IB forcing term only contributes to the leading order of the momentum and energy equation. By proper design, the source term plays a dual role, it includes the IB source/sink in the energy equation, and it allows an arbitrary Prandtl number by adjusting the heat flux term, demonstrating a great flexibility of mesoscopic methods particularly in treating thermal coupling. This IB-DUGKS enables the simulation of NOB natural convection flows, governed by the fully compressible Navier–Stokes–Fourier system. Simulations of natural convection between the outer square cavity and inner hot cylinders are performed to investigate the NOB effect. Both OB and NOB flows can be considered with the current scheme by selecting different relative temperature differences. The numerical results are in excellent agreement with the literature results, indicating that the current IB-DUGKS is accurate and robust for NOB thermal flow simulations.

Modeling convection has given rise to the development of turbulence theory and energetic analysis for multi-physics systems. However, most of previous works have been limited to relatively simple thermal convection phenomena driven by solely buoyancy force. In this work, we formulate the energetic relation of the turbulent electro-thermo-hydrodynamic (ETHD) convection and develop a two-dimensional (2D) spectral solver for numerical analysis of ETHD turbulence for a variety of driving parameters (forces). From the numerical analysis, we find a modified scaling behavior of heat transfer by the electric force, and discover a new scaling behavior of the portion of kinetic energy contributed by buoyancy force as a function of a dimensionless forcing ratio. Finally, we show that the energy budget in the boundary layer of the 2D ETHD turbulence follows the scaling law previously found for the traditional 2D Rayleigh–Bénard Convection.
