유한한 열전도율과 두께를 갖는 수평동심원관 내의 층류자연대류 문제를 유한차분법을 사용하여 수치적으로 연구하였다. 동심원관 내에는 전도-대류가 복합되어, 전체-유체 경계면에서의 온도분포는 미리 알려져 있지 않다. Prandtl수를 0.7, L/D$_{i}$ = 0.8로 고정하고 각각의 Rayleigh수와 열전도계수의 비, 기하학적변수에 대하여 계산을 수행하였으며, 그 결과를 등온 수평동심원관의 경우와 비교하였다. Rayleigh수와 t/D$_{i}$가 클수록, 열전도계수의 비 K가 작을수록 열저도 효과는 강하게 나타났으며, 국소등가전도계수와 온도분포에 비하여 속도분포는 영향을 덜 받는다는 것이 밝혀졌다.

In this study, we investigated the natural convection on the outer surface of a vertical pipe by performing mass transfer experiments using fluids with high Pr number using the concept of analogy between heat and mass transfer. A cupric acid-copper sulfate electroplating system was adopted as the mass transfer system. Tests were performed for $Ra_H$ numbers from $1.4{\times}10^9$ to $4{\times}10^{13}$, Pr numbers from 2,094 to 4,173, and diameters from 0.005 m to 0.035 m. The test results for laminar flow conditions were in good agreement with the correlations reported by King, Jakob and Linke, McAdam, and Bottemanne, and those for turbulent conditions with the correlations presented by Fouad for a vertical plate and also proved the dependence on Pr numbers. The obtained correlations were $Nu_H=0.55Ra^{0.25}_H$ for laminar and $Nu_H=0.12Ra^{0.28}_HPr^{0.1}$ for turbulent. The transition between laminar and turbulent occurs at $Ra_H$ of about $10^{12}$.

In this study, numerical analysis of two-dimensional unsteady natural convection of air in a square enclosure heated from below, was performed as a basic research of fire science. SIMPLE algorithm was used to the pressure term of momentum equations in the numerical analysis. The numerical analysis were studied for the two model cases and two heat conditions, respectively, which are different with insulation of enclosures and position of heat applied. Also, the ceiling temperatures of enclosure were measured to compare the accuracy of numerical analysis, and it is found that the temperature predicted by numerical analysis were agreed well with the measurements. Streamline and isotherm of the each model case were acquired for each time step.

수평으로 놓여진 2개의 동심타원 사이의 환상공간에서의 자연대류현상이 수치계산 및 실험적으로 연구되었다. 수치적 연구는 정상 2차원 층류유동영역에서 수행되었으며 유선 및 등온선이 구하여 졌다. 또한 특수한 경우로서 수평동심원 사이의 환상공간에 관한 기존연구와 비교하여 좋은 일치 를 보았다. 실험적 연구에서는 3개의 실험모델을 제작하였으며 마하젠더 간섭계에 의한 간섭사진 으로부터 등온선 분포를 얻었으며 아울러 유동에 관한 정보도 얻을 수 있었다. 실험과 수치계산 결과는 상당히 좋은 일치를 보였으며 기존 동심원환상공간에 편심율이 추가된 이론전개 및 수치 계산방법의 적합성을 알 수 있었고 이로서 환상공간에서의 자연대류에 관한 연구를 확장시켰다.

Steady laminar natural convection heat transfer from a square beam with a horizontal adiabatic plate has been studied numerically for various Grashof numbers and beam shapes. The heat transfer from a square beam increases as the dimensionless beam width W / L decreases. The mean Nusselt number of the upper surface is minimum at W / L = 1.0, maximum at W / L = 0.25 and that of the side surface is minimum at W / L = 0.25, maximum at W / L = 1.0. The increases of the total mean Nusselt number with increasing Grashof number is dominated by the beam width.

The effects of top and bottom lids on the natural convection heat transfer phenomena inside vertical cylinders were investigated experimentally for $Ra_{Lw}$ from $9.26{\times}10^9$ to $7.74{\times}10^{12}$. Using the concept of analogy between heat and mass transfer, a cupric acid-copper sulfate electroplating system was employed as mass transfer experiments replacing heat transfer experiments. The natural convection heat transfer of both-open cylinders in laminar and turbulent flows was in good agreement with the existing heat transfer correlations developed for vertical plates. The effects of top and bottom lids on the heat transfer rates were very similar to the studies of Krysa et al. and Sedahmed et al. and Chung et al. With the copper lids, the bottom-closed cavity showed the highest heat transfer rates and then followed both-closed, top-closed, both-open ones in both laminar and turbulent flows. However with the acryl lids, the similar trends were observed except that the heat transfer rates for both-open were higher than top-closed one. The use of the copper lids increased the heat transfer rates compared to the acryl lids due to the hydrodynamic interaction of the flows developed for the different heated faces. This study extended the ranges of flow conditions of the existing literatures and proposed the empirical correlations.

Numerical analysis of the laminar natural convection in an enclosure of the 20KVA oil-immeresed transformer is presented. The core in the transformer is modelled as a rectangular cylinder and calculation is carried out for $Ra=10^3-10^6$. The correlating equation between the inner cylinder mean Nusselt numbers and Rayleigh numbers can be obtained. The conduction and convection regimes for the variation of Rayleigh numbers are well represented in the temperature distributions along the side wall of the inner cylinder. For high Rayleigh numbers, it is found that the recirculating flow in the enclosure above the inner cylinder is divided into two recirculation regions.

A Numerical study on two-dimensional laminar natural convection with and without surface radiation in fully or partially open square cavity was performed. The cavity has one vertical heated wall facing a vertical opening and two horizontal insulated walls. The pressure boundary condition was applied to the opening instead of the velocity boundary condition. The results of this study showed that the increase of partition length decreased the convective and the radiative Nusselt numbers. It was also found that the increase of wall emissivity decreased the convective Nusselt numbers but increased the radiative Nusselt numbers.

Natural convection heat transfer rates in vertical pipes were measured varying the diameter, length, and roughness of vertical cylinder. To achieve high Rayleigh number with relatively small test rig, mass transfer experiments instead of heat transfer were performed based on the analogy. Prandtl number was 2,014. The length of vertical cylinder was 0.1m, 0.3m, and 0.5m, which correspond to GrL $4.2{\times}10^7$, $1.1{\times}10^9$, and $5.5{\times}10^9$. To each length of vertical cylinder, the heat transfer rates were measured varying the iameter 0.005m, 0.01m, and 0.03m. The heat transfer rate for a short length pipe(0.1m) agreed with the prediction from Le Fevre correlation developed for a vertical plate for all diameter. The heat transfer rate decreases as the diameter and the length of the pipe increases. The heat transfer rate inside of vertical cylinder is affected by roughness only for a laminar flow regime.
