geometry simplification of wrinkled wall semi-rigid aluminum containers in heat transfer simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
semi-rigid aluminum containers are being used widely in food industries. they have wrinkle shaped walls for strengthening their physical structure. the objective of this study was to assess the effect of wrinkled parts on the heat transfer and temperature distribution of the containers by computational fluid dynamics (cfd) analysis. therefore, a precise designed geometry of the wrinkled walls container was compared to a straight one. the analysis was carried out based on the physical properties of a carrot-orange soup. the velocity vectors showed a strong circulation towards the core. the slowest heating zone (shz) locations were the same for wrinkled and simplified containers. average temperature of the symmetric plane and the coldest point of shz showed less than 1% difference. the lethality imposed to the shz in the wrinkled wall container was about 0.4% more than the straight one. the simulation results revealed that wrinkled walls do not play an important role in increasing heat transfer and as a result, such geometries could be simplified while modeling.

In this paper, the sloshing response of liquid in a two dimensional rigid rectangular tank with rigid baffles is investigated using boundary element technique. A baffle is a supplementary structural element which supplies a kind of passive control on the effects of ground shaking. The complicated liquid domain is divided into two simple sub-domains so that the liquid velocity potential in each ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental examination of the effect of non-uniform wall temperature on local heat transfer coefficient in a rotating smooth-walled square channel. Three different thermal boundary situations were investigated: (a) even and odd (four) wall uniform temperature, (b) even and odd (four) wall uniform heat flux, and (c) even (leading and trailing) w...
