Heat Transfer Resulting From the Interaction of a Vortex Pair With a Heated Wall
نویسندگان
چکیده
The motion of a two-dimensional vortex pair moving toward a wall is studied numerically. The case for which the wall is heated is analyzed. The equations of momentum and energy conservation are solved using a finite volume scheme. In this manner, the instantaneous heat transfer from the wall is obtained and is related to the dynamics of the fluid vortex interacting with the wall. It was found that, as expected, when the fluid vortex approaches the wall, the heat transfer increases significantly. The heat transfer changes in a nonmonotonic manner as a function of time: When the vortex first reaches the wall, a volume of heated fluid is convected from the wall; this fluid volume circulates in the vicinity of the wall, causing the rate of heat transfer to decrease slightly, to then increase again. A wide range of Prandtl and Reynolds numbers were tested. A measure of the effective heat transfer coefficient, or Nusselt number, is proposed. DOI: 10.1115/1.2885182

Thermal Field Around a Circular Cylinder with Periodic Vortex Shedding
A numerical study is carried out to investigate the laminar forced convection heat transfer from a circular cylinder. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible, the Reynolds number ranged from 0.1 to 1000, and the Prandtl number was equal to 0.7. The range of study includes heat transfer in creeping flow (Re40). The equations were discretized by a control-volume-based finite difference techniqu...

In this study, the momentum and energy equations of laminar flow of a non-Newtonian fluid are solved in an axisymmetric porous channel using the least square and Galerkin methods. The bottom plate is heated by an external hot gas, and a coolant fluid is injected into the channel from the upper plate. The arising nonlinear coupled partial differential equations are reduced to a set of coupled no...

متن کاملHeat Transfer and Carryover in the Dryout of a Heated Vertical Tube
This work concerns dryout experiments in which a tube, initially containing water, filled up or partially filled and at 1,2 or 3 atmosphere pressures, is heated. The initial water column experience three thermal regions. The first region, called the first period, involves heating of the tube until saturation conditions are obtained in the water. Boiling of the water in the tube causes swelling ...
