New method for evaluation of heat transfer coefficient is proposed. In general, many researchers have been studied about inverse problem in order to calculate the heat transfer coefficient on three-dimensional heat conduction problem. But they can get the time-dependent heat transfer coefficient only through inverse problem. In order to acquire temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficient, it requires much time for numerous repetitive calculation and inconvenient manual modification. In order to solve these problems, we are using the SQP(Sequential Quadratic Programming) as an optimization algorithm. When the temperature history is given by experiment, the optimization algorithm can evaluate the temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficient with automatic repetitive calculation until difference between calculated temperature history and experimental ones is minimized. Finally, temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficient evaluated by developed program can used on various heat transfer problem.

The study of heat transfer coefficient of supercritical water plays an important role in improving the heat transfer efficiency of the reactor. Taking the supercritical natural circulation experimental bench as the research object, the effects of power, flow, pipe diameter and mainstream temperature on the heat transfer coefficient of supercritical water were studied. At the same time, the experimental data of Chen Yuzhou's supercritical water heat transfer coefficient was collected. Through the factorial design method, the influence of different factors and their interactions on the heat transfer coefficient of supercritical water is analyzed. Through the corresponding analysis method, the influencing factors of different levels of heat transfer coefficient are analyzed. It can be found: Except for the effects of flow rate, power, power-temperature and temperature, the influence of other factors on the natural circulation heat transfer coefficient of supercritical water is negligible. When the heat transfer coefficient is low, it is mainly affected by the pipe diameter. As the heat transfer coefficient is further increased, it is mainly affected by temperature and power. When the heat transfer coefficient is at a large level, the influence of the flow rate is the largest at this time.

The objectives of this paper are to measure the heat transfer and pressure drop of the heat transfer tube for an evaporator of absorption system applications. Five types of heat transfer tubes with different shape and heat transfer area are tested in the present experiment. Heat transfer and pressure drop performance of heat transfer tubes are measured in various operating conditions, and compared each other. The results show that the heat transfer coefficient of thermoexcel notch tube increases about 79.6% and 45.3% at the film Reynolds number 69.7 compared with that of bare tube and low fin tube, respectively. The thermoexcel notch tube is show the best performance considering pressure drop and heat transfer coefficient.

The row-by-row heat transfer characteristics of fin-and-tube heat exchangers were experimentally investigated. Three wavy fin samples having different rows (one, two and three) and one plain fin sample (three row) were tested for $600{\leq}Re_{D}{\leq}4,000$. The heat transfer data were obtained for individual rows, and the corresponding heat transfer coefficients were reduced from the data. Results showed that the heat transfer coefficients were strongly dependent on the tube row. The heat transfer coefficient decreased as the tube row increased. However, the row effect was different depending on the fin shape. For the wavy fin, the row effect significantly decreased as the Reynolds number increased, yielding approximately the same heat transfer coefficients at $Re_{D}{\approx}2,500$. For the plain fin, however, the row effect lasted for the whole Reynolds number range. The increased mixing of bulk flow by wavy channels appears to induce high heat transfer coefficient (accordingly diminishing row effect) at downstream rows. The heat transfer coefficients of individual rows were higher for heat exchangers having larger tube rows.

A good understanding of the heat transfer distribution is very important to suppress the deformation of steel products. In this study, the local heat transfer coefficients are experimentally investigated to understand the heat transfer distribution of thick steel plates with even flat spray nozzle. The steel slabs are cooled down from the initial temperature of about $1000^{\circ}C$ , and the local heat transfer coefficients and surface temperatures are calculated from the measured temperature-time history. The results show that the local heat transfer coefficients of spray cooling are dominated by the local droplet flow rate, and in proportion to becoming more distant from the center of heat transfer surface, the local heat transfer coefficients decrease with the decrease of the local droplet flow rate.

The heat transfer characteristics between liquid lead bismuth eutectic (LBE) and helium are of great significance for the two-loop cooling system based on an accelerator-driven system (ADS). This paper presents an experimental study on the resistance characteristics and heat transfer performance in a LBE-helium experimental loop of ADS. Pressure drops in the LBE loop, the main heat transfer, and the coupled heat transfer characteristics between LBE and helium are investigated experimentally. The temperature of LBE has a significant effect on the LBE thermo-physical properties, and is therefore considered in the prediction of pressure drops. The results show that the overall heat transfer coefficient increases with the increasing helium flow rate and the decreasing inlet temperature of helium. Increasing the LBE Reynolds number and LBE inlet temperature promotes the heat transfer performance of main heat transfer and thus the overall heat transfer coefficient. The experimental results give an insight into the flow and heat transfer properties in a LBE-helium heat exchanger and are helpful for the optimization of an ADS system design.

The evaporation heat transfer characteristics of propane(R-290) in horizontal small diameter tubes were investigated experimentally. The test tubes have inner diameters of 1 mm and 4 mm. Local heat transfer coefficients were measured at heat fluxes of 12, $24\;kW/m^2$, mass fluxes of 150, $300\;kg/m^2s$, and evaporation temperature of $15^{\circ}C$. The experimental results showed that the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of R-290 has an effect on heat flux, mass flux, tube diameter, and vapor quality. The evaporation heat transfer of R-290 has an influenced on nucleate boiling at low quality and convective boiling at high quality. The evaporation heat transfer coefficient of R-290 increases with decreasing inner tube diameter. And the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of R-290 is about 1~3 times higher than that of R-134a.

This research focused on the multi-pass heat exchanger using the minichannel possessing the spring fin. An air-water was used as working fluid. The characteristics of liquid single phase heat transfer were verified. The compact heat exchanger (heat transfer area density : ${\beta}=2,146 m^2/m^3$), based on the shape of header(Top combining header), 63 minichannels ($D_i$ : 1.4 mm, L : 0.25 m) and the air side adopting the copper wire spring fin, was fabricated. The heat transfer area density of the air side was improved up to 161% when compared with the conventional fin-tube heat exchanger that adopts the heat transfer tube with the inner diameter of 5 mm. With regard to heat transfer performance, heat transfer rate per unit volume increased up to 142% when compared with the fin-tube heat exchanger adopting the heat transfer tube with the inner diameter of 5 mm.

In the present study, a finite element analysis of conjugate heat transfer problem inside a cavity with a heat-generating conducting body, where constant heat flux is generated, is conducted. A conduction heat transfer problem inside the solid body is automatically coupled with natural convection inside the cavity by using a finite element formulation. A finite element formulation based on SIMPLE type algorithm is adopted for the solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled with energy equation. The proposed algorithm is verified by solving the benchmark problem of conjugate heat transfer inside a cavity having a centered body. Then a conjugate natural heat transfer problem inside a cavity having a heat-generating conducting body with constant heat flux is solved and the effect of the Rayleigh number on the heat transfer characteristics inside a cavity is investigated.

Averaged heat transfer coefficients in the trailing edge model of a turbine blade with double impingements were measured using transient liquid crystals technique and conventional copper plate-thermocouple technique. The detailed distributions of heat transfer coefficients by transient liquid crystals technique were also presented. Results showed that increased heat transfer coefficient due to the inpingements and the averaged heat transfer coefficients increased as Reynolds number increased. Results by transient liquid crystals technique showed that the heat transfer coefficient strongly depended on the main stream temperature used in heat transfer coefficient calculation. The averaged heat transfer coefficients measured by different methods showed similar trend as Reynolds number changed, but the value varied up to 40% depending on the measurement technique.
