천장개구부를 갖는 정사각형 밀폐공간내의 자연대류-복사 열전달에 관한 연구

This study investigated the natural convection and radiation in a rectangular enclosure with ceiling vent experimentally and numerically. A heat source is located on the center of the bottom surface. The analysis was peformed a pure convection and is combination of natural convection and radiation. The shape of the considered two dimensional model is a square whose center of ceiling($30\%$) is opened. The numerical simulations are carried out for the pure natural convection case and the combined heat transfer case by using the SIMPLE algorithm. For the turbulent flow, Reynolds stresses are closed by the standard $k-{\epsilon}$ model and the wall function is used to determine the wall boundary conditions. The experiment was performed on the same geometrical shape as the computations. The radiative heat transfer is analized by the S-N discrete ordinates method. The results of pure natural convection are compared with those of combined heat transfer by the velocity vectors, stream lines, isothermal lines. The results obtained are as follows 1. Comparing the results of pure convection with those of the combined convection-radiation through the shape of stream lines, isothermal lines are similar to each other. 2. The temperature fields obtained by numerical method are compared to those obtained by experimental one, and it is found that they are showed mean relative error $8.5\%$. 3. Visualization bt smoke is similar to computational results.

본 연구에서는 $20\%$ 천장개구부가 있는 정사각형 밀폐공간내의 순수자연대류와 자연대류 -복사가 고려된 복합열전달을 순차해석과 실험을 통하여 비교 분석하였다. 수치해석은 순수자연대류에 대하여 SIMPLE 알고리즘을 사용하였고, 복사열전달에 대해서는 S-N 구분 종좌표법을 이용하였으며 난류유동의 경계조건은 벽함수를 적용하였다. 실험은 수치해석의 결과와 비교하기 위하여 동일한 조건에 대하여 수행되었다. 그 결과 순수자연대류와 복합열전달의 유동장, 온도장의 형상은 유사한 유선함수를 보이고 있으며, 유동가시화를 통한 실험결과와 잘 일치하고 있음을 보여준다. 수치해석과 실험의 온도분포를 비교한 결과 평균 $8.5\%$의 오차를 보였다.
