Application of nanofluids for heat transfer enhancement of separated flows encountered in a backward facing step
Numerical investigation of heat transfer over a backward facing step (BFS), using nanofluids is presented. Different volume fractions of nanoparticles are presented in the base fluid besides different type of nanoparticles have been used. The finite volume technique is used to solve the momentum and energy equations. The distribution of Nusselt number at the top and the bottom walls of the BFS ...
متن کاملPrediction of Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer Characteristics Behind a Single Backward-Facing Step
Numerical solutions based on standard finite volume method are presented for the study of heat transfer and fluid dynamic characteristics in turbulent flows behind a single sided backward-facing step. The calculation of the differential equations is performed using SIMPLE algorithm. For the turbulent quantities standard K-model is used. Predicted mean velocity profiles and reattachment lengths ...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Laminar Convection Flow of Radiating Gas over a Backward Facing Step in a Duct
In this study, three-dimensional simulations are presented for laminar forced convection flow of a radiating gas over a backward-facing step in rectangular duct. The fluid is treated as a gray, absorbing, emitting and scattering medium. The three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system is used to solve the governing equations which are conservations of mass, momentum and energy. These equations...
متن کاملTurbulent separated convection flow adjacent to backward-facing step—effects of step height
Simulations of turbulent convection flow adjacent to a two-dimensional backward-facing step are presented to explore the effects of step height on turbulent separated flow and heat transfer. Reynolds number and duct’s height downstream from the step are kept constant at Re0 = 28,000 and H = 0.19 m, respectively. Uniform and constant heat flux of qw = 270 W/m 2 is specified at the stepped wall d...
متن کاملEnhancement of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Annular Enclosures
Natural convection heat transfer was investigated experimentally in a concentric-cylinders annulus. To enhance the rate of heat transfer, pin fins were installed on the surface of the inner cylinder. Two fin arrangements were employed, namely, staggered and in-line arrangements. The length of the fins varied from 2 to 8 cm and the Rayleigh number Ra changed in the range from 5 x 105 to 5 x 106...
