Thermo-hydraulic evaluation of oscillating-flow shell-and-tube-like regenerators for (elasto)caloric cooling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract The development of novel regenerators for caloric cooling applications requires a detailed evaluation their thermo-hydraulic properties. Structures similar to shell-and-tube heat exchangers are one the most promising geometries elastocaloric technology since they exhibit high thermal performance and can be applied under compressive loading overcome limited fatigue life materials normally experienced in tension. However, properties shell-and-tube-like structures at conditions relevant (oscillating counter-flow regime low Reynolds numbers (

Elastocaloric cooling potential of NiTi
24 Solid state elastocaloric cooling, the endothermic reversible martensitic phase transformation in shape 25 memory alloys, has the potential to replace vapor compression refrigeration. NiTi, Ni2FeGa, and CoNiAl 26 shape memory alloys were experimentally investigated to measure the magnitude of temperature 27 change using thermography during uniaxial tensile experiments. Consecutive tensile cy...
متن کاملHydraulic Network Modeling to Analyze Stream Flow Effectiveness on Heat Transfer Performance of Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers
In this article, stream flow effectivness is based on hydraulic network studied in the shell-side of a shell and tube heat exchange as a case study. For an appropriate heat exchangers rating design to meet a specified duty, it's better to consider each stream flow separately. Using the hydraulic network principals, a set of the correlations for calculating different stream flow rates in the cro...
