Fast heat transfer calculations in supercritical fluids versus hydrodynamic approach.
This study investigates the heat transfer in a simple pure fluid whose temperature is slightly above its critical temperature. We propose an efficient numerical method to predict the heat transfer in such fluids when the gravity can be neglected. The method, based on a simplified thermodynamic approach, is compared with direct numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes and energy equations perf...
متن کاملHeat Transfer Fluids
The choice of heat transfer fluids has significant effects on the performance, cost and reliability of solar thermal systems. In this chapter, we evaluate existing heat transfer fluids such as oils and molten salts based on a new figure of merit capturing the combined effects of thermal storage capacity, convective heat transfer characteristics and hydraulic performance of the fluids. Thermal s...
متن کاملNumerical Predictions of Turbulent Mixed Convection Heat Transfer to Supercritical Fluids Using Various Low Reynolds Number k-e Turbulence Models
There are a number of systems in which supercritical cryogenic fluids are used as coolants or propellant fluids. In some modern military aircraft, the fuel is pressurized above its critical point and used as a coolant to remove heat from the aircraft engine. Accurate prediction of heat transfer coefficients to turbulent flows of supercritical fluids is essential in design of such systems. One o...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Flow and Heat Transfer of Fluids at Supercritical Pressure
Simple geometries such as circular pipes or annular channels have been used to investigate the heat transfer experimentally in the vicinity of the pseudo-critical temperature using water or CO2. A large database exists worldwide. In these experiments large deviations from the ‘normal’ heat transfer behaviour were documented, in particular a strong dependency of the heat transfer coefficient on ...
متن کاملElectrochemistry in supercritical fluids
A wide range of supercritical fluids (SCFs) have been studied as solvents for electrochemistry with carbon dioxide and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) being the most extensively studied. Recent advances have shown that it is possible to get well-resolved voltammetry in SCFs by suitable choice of the conditions and the electrolyte. In this review, we discuss the voltammetry obtained in these systems, ...
