This has important implications in phase change heat transfer processes such as evaporation, boiling, and condensation. Although the effect of low to moderate voltages has been studied, there is a need to explore the interaction of high electric fields with liquid drops and bubbles, and their effect on heat transfer and phase change. In this study, we employ a high speed optical camera to study the dynamics of a liquid drop impacting a hot substrate under the application of high electric fields. Experimental results indicate a significant change in the pre- and post-impact behavior of the drop. Prior to impact, the applied electric field elongates the drop in the direction of the electric field. Post-impact, the recoil phase of the drop is significantly affected by charging effects. Further, a significant amount of micro-droplet ejection is observed with an increase in the applied voltage.","PeriodicalId":414719,"journal":{"name":"ASME 2019 Heat Transfer Summer Conference","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125260267","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}

Oztekin","doi":"10.1115/ht2019-3681","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1115/ht2019-3681","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 For continuous operation of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) Plants it is necessary to integrate thermal energy storage module. High-density energy storage system at a high temperature is required for the new generation of large scale CSP plants. The Thermochemical Energy Storage (TCES) systems use the enthalpy of formation of a reversible chemical reaction for energy storage and release. Gas/solid reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions of solid metal oxides using air as heat transfer fluid (HTF) can be directly integrated with air operated CSP plants, and there is no need for HTF storage and any intermediate heat exchanger. A new generation of large scale CSP plants uses high-temperature solar collectors to increase power cycle efficiency. Such operating conditions require the development of suitable high-temperature TCES systems. The selection of suitable metal oxide reactant is very critical in the design of such high-temperature storage systems and requires a detailed study of the physics of reaction within the reactor.\u0000 Cobalt oxide (Co3O4/CoO) has been verified to have a high reaction temperature, high enthalpy of reaction together with reasonable cyclic and thermal stability. Unique features of cobalt oxide require more fundamental study of the physics behind the redox reaction and its cyclic performance. Study of the physics of materials during the storage/release cycle is necessary for the design and improvement of the reactor and can be used as a benchmark for comparison of any implemented changes.\u0000 A high precision, true differential TGA/DSC instrument is used for simultaneous measurement of weightchange (TGA) and true differential heat flow (DSC) for pure cobalt oxide (Co3O4) powder. Storage cycle (charge/discharge) was conducted for five cycles. Complete re-oxidation was achieved within reasonable times by performing the two reactions at close temperatures and controlling heating/cooling rates. Basic performance parameters were derived as a benchmark for future references. Single-cycle controlling parameters such as heating/cooling rate, dwelling time, and purge gas rate were investigated. System response for few initial cycles was studied. It was shown that pure cobalt oxide could regain weight and complete re-oxidation with reasonable stability. A transition for heat flow was detected after a few initial cycles which reduced discharge heat and decreased overall performance.","PeriodicalId":414719,"journal":{"name":"ASME 2019 Heat Transfer Summer Conference","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116875833","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}

Carey","doi":"10.1115/ht2019-3539","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1115/ht2019-3539","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 Recent studies have indicated that at slightly superheated surface temperatures, droplet evaporation on a nanoporous superhydrophilic surface exhibits onset of nucleation and nucleate boiling effects similar to pool boiling processes. This paper discusses water droplet evaporation experiments and pool boiling experiments conducted on nanostructured surfaces of a 45° downward facing pyramid copper and aluminum substrate. The nanostructured surfaces were used to conduct both droplet evaporation experiments and pool boiling experiments and thus allow direct comparison of the underlying heat transfer performance and mechanisms for these two different processes. The four surfaces tested were the following: bare copper surface, nanostructured surface on copper, bare aluminum surface, and nanostructured surface on aluminum. Mean heat flux values at varying superheats were obtained through temperature and time measurements. To better understand the heat performance of each surface, the wetting and wicking characteristics of each surface were also tested. Experimental results indicate that many of the mechanisms associated with pool boiling may also play a role in droplet vaporization, and their presence can produce levels of heat transfer performance comparable to, or even higher than, that observed in pool boiling at a comparable wall superheat. The results demonstrate that the nanostructured surface affects onset of nucleate boiling and maximum heat flux in both droplet vaporization and nucleate boiling on these surfaces. The implications of these results for strategies to enhance spray cooling and pool boiling are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":414719,"journal":{"name":"ASME 2019 Heat Transfer Summer Conference","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114077084","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}

In the present paper, a one-dimensional medium with a moving boundary is considered. It is assumed that two thermocouples are used to measure temperature at two locations within the medium while the front boundary is moving towards the back surface. Determining surface heat flux using measured temperature data is an inverse heat conduction problem. A filter based Tikhonov regularization method is used to develop a solution for this problem. Filter coefficients are calculated for various thicknesses of the medium. It is demonstrated that the filter coefficients can be interpolated to calculate the appropriate values for each thickness while it is continuously moving at a known rate. The use of filter method allows near real-time heat flux estimation. The developed solution is validated through several numerical test cases including a test case for a moving boundary in a medium modeled in COMSOL. It is shown that the proposed solution can effectively estimate the surface heat flux on the moving boundary in a near real-time fashion.","PeriodicalId":414719,"journal":{"name":"ASME 2019 Heat Transfer Summer Conference","volume":"19 10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125769190","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}

In passive heat removal heat exchangers of nuclear power plants, the two phase-change phenomena usually occur simultaneously on both sides of the tube wall to achieve the maximum heat transfer efficiency. However, the studies on the effects of in-tube condensation on external pool boiling heat transfer are very limited, especially in numerical computation aspect. In the present study, the saturated pooling boiling over a vertical tube under the influences of in-tube steam condensation is investigated numerically. The Volume of Fluid (VOF) interface tracking method is employed based on the 2D axisymmetric Euler-Euler multiphase frame. The phase change model combining with a mathematical smoothing algorithm and a temporal relaxation procedure has been implemented into CFD platform by user defined functions (UDFs). The two-phase flow pattern and bubble behavior have been analyzed. The effects of inlet steam mass flow rate on boiling heat transfer are discussed.","PeriodicalId":414719,"journal":{"name":"ASME 2019 Heat Transfer Summer Conference","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127268349","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}

The main objective of this work is to study the effect of membrane properties on the membrane flux performance and temperature and concentration polarization characteristics of the module. CFD simulations are conducted in a three-dimensional module to characterize the steady-state velocity, temperature and concentration field in the feed and permeate channel. The Reynolds number for the feed and the permeate stream are set to 900 and 2000, and thus the laminar flow model is adapted for each channel. The effects of the porosity and the membrane thickness are varied while the pore size is fixed for the parametric study. It is revealed that the membrane thickness has a profound influence while the membrane porosity has a slight influence on the SGMD performance. We observed a high level of temperature polarization within the module, which adversely affects the system performance. Remedies for mitigating temperature polarization should be considered for future studies.","PeriodicalId":414719,"journal":{"name":"ASME 2019 Heat Transfer Summer Conference","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128025622","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}

The actual bulk thermal conductivity of the thin film samples was obtained by deconvoluting the thermal contact resistance (TCR) during the measurement process, according to the linear relationship between the nominal bulk thermal resistance and the thickness. The slope of the correlation curve is the reciprocal of film sample thermal conductivity and the intercept is the overall TCR. For the PCM35 thin film samples (which melt at around 35 °C) having three nominal thicknesses of 271±1 μm, 460±2 μm and 511±2 μm, the corrected results in the solid and liquid state were found to be approximately 0.487 W/m·K and 0.186 W/m·K, respectively. It was shown that the corrected values are greater than the direct readings from the TPS instrument as the latter involves the effect of TCR across multiple interfaces.

Calculation results show that the performance of the heat exchangers designed by this novel approach meets the requirement of pressure drop and heat transfer for all working conditions (flight height varies from 0 m to 12,000 m, and Mach number varies from 0 to 1.2). After working conditions discrete and heat exchanger design, the extreme working conditions of pressure drop and heat transfer rate are found not coincided, which have been all considered in design without artificially screening. Therefore, it is not necessary to find a ‘seeming extreme working condition’ before design for this approach. In the optimization design, a deeply optimized structure of heat exchanger is proposed by changing the values of the selected structural parameters to reduce by roughly 30% of the total weight in comparison to common design results. Moreover, the pressure drop and the heat transfer rate of the optimal result can be reasonably distributed at different working conditions. Actually in this novel approach, more other specific criteria required could be also added into the integrate criterion of optimization to control the result. In addition, two detailed optimization methods, sacrifice of secondary objective parameters and ‘the macro-to-micro design method’, have been proposed in optimization design for further optimal structure.","PeriodicalId":414719,"journal":{"name":"ASME 2019 Heat Transfer Summer Conference","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117323126","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}
