Effects of inlet velocity profile and swirl on the cooling characteristics of a laminar jet

open access: yesDiscover Mechanical Engineering
The outcomes of numerical and experimental studies performed on a laminar circular swirling jet impinging on a flat surface is presented. In the numerical studies the computational domain is three-dimensional, which aids in predicting the complexity of ...

Buoyancy Driven Heat Transfer in Cavities Subjected to Thermal Boundary Conditions at Bottom Wall

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2012
Natural convection in cavities is studied numerically using a finite volume based computational procedure. The enclosure used for flow and heat transfer analysis has been bounded by adiabatic top wall, constant temperature cold vertical walls and a ...

INVESTIGATION OF CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER FOR HIGH INTEGRAL FINNED TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2019
The numerical investigation has been performed in this work to evaluate the performance of a triangular finned tube heat exchanger. In numerical work, the effect of space (2.5, 3 and 3.5 mm) distance between every two finned shaped and the volumetric ...

The Nusselt number of a hot sphere levitated by a volatile pool

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics
When placed at the surface of a volatile liquid, a sphere of hot dense non-volatile material remains suspended until it cools sufficiently. The duration of this ‘inverse Leidenfrost’ phenomenon depends on the Nusselt number $Nu$ of the sphere, itself determined by flow in the film of vapour separating particle and liquid. It

Rayleigh-Bénard convection: bounds on the Nusselt number

open access: yes, 2016
We examine the Rayleigh–Bénard convection as modelled by the Boussinesq equation. Our aim is at deriving bounds for the heat enhancement factor in the vertical direction, the Nusselt number, which reproduce physical scalings. In the first part of the dissertation, we examine the the simpler model when the acceleration of the fluid is neglected (Pr ...

Nusselt number scaling in tokamak plasma turbulence

open access: yesNusselt number scaling in tokamak plasma turbulence
K. Takeda et al., Physics of Plasmas 12, 052309 (2005) https://doi.org/10.1063/1.1895165 Anomalous heat transport caused by ion temperature gradient (ITG) driven turbulence in tokamak plasmas is evaluated from numerical simulations of the two-dimensional (2D) partial-differential equations of the ITG model and of a reduced 1D version derived from a ...

Experimental relationships for heat flux, nusselt number and temperature

open access: yes, 1996
In this study, a heater with finned surface, having a large application field in practice and working in accordance with the principle of natural convection heat transfer, is investigated. Tn such systems, the increase of heat transfer coefficient is obtained by preventing the rise of the thickness of the thermal layer using an obstacle on the heater ...

A regenerator—prediction of nusselt numbers

International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 1969
Abstract The dynamics of a parallel plate regenerative heat exchanger are studied using a model in which resistance to heat transfer is due to diffusional resistance in the fluid in the direction transverse to flow. The resultant Nusselt number is a function of time as well as longitudinal distance from the entrance of the exchanger and is not a ...
