چکیده

in this study, fluid flow and energy separation in a micro-scale ranque-hilschvortex tube are numerically investigated. the flow is assumed as 2d, steady,compressible ideal gas, and shear-stress-transport sst k-w is found to be a bestchoice for modeling of turbulence phenomena. the results are in a good agreementwith the experimental results reported in the literature. the results show that fluidflow and energy separation inside the micro-scale vortex tube is quite similar tothose of traditional ones. moreover, it is found that non-dimensional forms of coldtemperature difference and refrigerating capacity are only dependent on cold massfraction. in addition, two correlations have been proposed to estimate nondimensional forms of cold temperature difference and refrigeration capacity in themicro-scale vortex tube.

Maxwell's demon in the Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube.

A theory was developed that explains energy separation in a vortex tube, known as one of the Maxwellian demons. It appears that there is a unique relation between the pressures in the exits of the vortex tube and its temperatures. Experimental results show that the computed and measured temperatures are in very good agreement.

A new approach to selective brain cooling by a Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube

BACKGROUND Target temperature management is the single most effective intervention and the gold standard in post-resuscitation care today. However, cooling the whole body below 33-34 °C can cause severe complications. Therefore, developing a selective brain cooling (SBC) approach which can be initiated early to induce rapid cooling and maintain the target temperature over 12-24 h before slowly ...

Review of Ranque–Hilsch effects in vortex tubes

The vortex tube or Ranque–Hilsch vortex tube is a device that enables the separation of hot and cold air as compressed air flows tangentially into the vortex chamber through inlet nozzles. Separating cold and hot airs by using the principles of the vortex tube can be applied to industrial applications such as cooling equipment in CNC machines, refrigerators, cooling suits, heating processes, et...
