Experimental Investigation on Heat Transfer Characteristics in a Uniformly Heated Pipe with Pulsating Pressure

맥동 압력을 받는 가열관 내부에서의 열전달 특성에 관한 실험적 연구

An experimental study of thermal transport from a uniformly heated pipe to a pulsating flow has been carried out. Surface of the pipe is imposed with constant heat flux providing by electric heating band. This problem is of particular interest in the design of Stirling engine heat exchangers and in understanding the blood flow in the aorta. Temporal Variatiens of temperature and pressure inside the circular pipe are measured. The dependence of temperature distributions and heat transfer rate on the mean flow rate in the pipe and on the pulsating frequency is investigated in detail. The experimental results indicate that the measured temporal variations of temperature and pressure become nearly sinusoidal The amplitude of temperature variation near the pipe wall is much more substantial than that in core of the pipe. It is also found that the heat transfer rate is increased significantly as the frequency of the pulsating pressure is increased or the mean flow rate in a pipe is increased. The results obtained are also compared with those for non-pulsating flow circumstance.

본 연구에서는 원관의 외벽에 일정 열 유속이 가해지고 원관 입구에 주기적인 압력이 주어질때 축방향으로 유동 및 온도가 주기적으로 완전 발달된 영역에서, 맥동 진동수 및 시간 평균 유량의 변화에 따른 원관 벽면과 원관 내부 유체 온도의 시간적 변화를 측정 하고자 하였다. 아울러 맥동 유동에서의 열전달 특성을 비맥동 유동 에서의 결과와 비교 검토 하였다.
