The present work investigates the heat transfer characteristics for laminar fully developed forced convection in an internally finned tube with axially uniform heat flux and peripherally uniform temperature through analytical models of convection in a porous medium. Using the Brinkman-extended Darcy flow model and the two equation model fur heat transfer, analytical solutions fur fluid flow and heat transfer are obtained and compared with the exact solution for fluid flow and the numerical solutions for conjugate heat transfer to validate the porous medium approach. Using the analytical solutions, parameters of engineering importance are identified and their effects on fluid flow and heat transfer are studied. Also, the expression fur total thermal resistance is derived from the analytical solutions and minimized in order to optimize the thermal performance of the internally finned tubes.

The goal of heat transfer studies is the accurate prediction of temperature and heat flux distribution on material boundaries. To this purpose, general-purpose computational fluid dynamics(CFD) code is used : FLUENT. Mass fluxes and pressure ratio are calculated for two types of nozzle. The comparative studies reveal that the computational results are in agreement with the experimental data. Also, heat transfer coefficients from FLUENT for one type of nozzle are very similar and agree well with the experimental data in the diverging part of the nozzle, but the calculated results are large in the converging part. The heat transfer coefficients from Bartz equation are over-predicted. We can consider various reasons for these differences, i.e., laminarization by the highly accelerated flow in the nozzle, turbulent flow model and grid generation.

A nonlinear low-Reynolds-number heat transfer model is developed to predict turbulent flow and heat transfer in separated and reattaching flows. The $k-{\varepsilon}-f_{\mu}$ model of Park and Sung (1997) is extended to a nonlinear formulation, based on the nonlinear model of Gatski and Speziale (1993). The limiting near-wall behavior is resolved by solving the $f_{\mu}$ elliptic relaxation equation. An improved explicit algebraic heat transfer model is proposed, which is achieved by applying a matrix inversion. The scalar heat fluxes are not aligned with the mean temperature gradients in separated and reattaching flows; a full diffusivity tensor model is required. The near-wall asymptotic behavior is incorporated into the $f_{\lambda}$ function in conjunction with the $f_{\mu}$ elliptic relaxation equation. Predictions of the present model are cross-checked with existing measurements and DNS data. The model preformance is shown to be satisfactory.

Numerical analyses have been carried out to analyze the three-dimensional turbulent heat transfer by impingement jet on a concave surface with variation of geometric configurations. Three-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier-stokes equations have been calculated using the shear stress transport turbulent model. The numerical results for heat transfer rate were validated in comparison with the experimental data. The distance between jet nozzles and angle of inclined jet nozzle were selected as the geometric variables. Area-averaged Nusselt numbers on concave surface are evaluated to find the characteristics of heat transfer with the two geometric variables. The heat transfer increases as the distance between jet nozzles increases, and the inclined impinging jets show much better heat transfer performance than the vertical impinging jet.

Film boiling heat transfer of the subcooled turbulent liquid film flow on a horizontal plate was investigated by theoretical and experimental studies. In the theoretical analysis, by solving the integral energy and momentum equations analytically, some generalized expressions for Nusselt number was deduced. Next, by comparing the deduced equations with the experimental data on the turbulent film boiling heat transfer of the subcooled thin liquid film flow, the semi-empirical relation between the Nusselt number based on the modified heat transfer coefficient and the Reynolds number was obtained. The correlating equation was very similar to that of the turbulent heat transfer in a single phase flow, and it was found that the heat transfer was dissipated to increase the liquid temperature.

The flow and heat transfer characteristics behind a backward facing step located in a vertical channel has been studied. In this study, the numerical prediction has been performed by solving the Navier-Stokes equation and energy equation simultaneously with the SIMPLE algorithm embedied in TEACH code. Local heat flux was measured by using Schlieren Interferometer. The flow visualization was performed using the cylindrical lens and the laser beam that is scattered by the supplied glycerine particles. The velocity and temperature distributions, recirculation region, reattachment length, and local heat flux are obtained under the various parameters to investigate the buoyancy effect on the flow and heat transfer characteristics behind the step.

An experimental study was performed to investigate heat transfer characteristics of turbulent swirling flow in an axisymmetric annuli. The static pressure, the local flow temperature, and the wall temperature with decaying swirl were measured by using tangential inlet conditions and the friction factor and the local Nusselt number were calculated for Re=30000∼70000. The local Nusselt number was compared with that obtained from the Dittus-Boelter equation with swirl and without swirl. The results showed that the swirl enhances the heat transfer at the inlet and the outlet of the test tube.

This study has analyzed the convective heat transfer on the deck exposed to the high-temperature impingement exhausting from a VTOL vehicle. The heat flow of the impingement on the deck is modeled by the convection heat transfer. The convective heat flux generated by the hot impinging jet is investigated by using both convective heat transfer formulation and conjugate heat transfer formulation. Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) code was used to compute the heat flux distribution. The RANS equation and the k-e turbulence model were used to analyze the thermal flow of the impinging jet. The heat flux distribution near the stagnation zone obtained by the conjugate heat transfer analysis shows more reasonable than the convective heat transfer analysis.

The coupled conduction and convection heat transfer from the protruding heat source in a vertical channel is numerically investigated. Conjugate solution of the two-dimensional energy equation is obtained for the incompressible air flow over the rectangular block with local heat source. It was found that several recirculation zones and separation bubble near the block were related to Re and Gr. And the results show that fractions of the heat transfer through each of the block face, maximum temperature of the block and the relative effect of each parameter on the maximum temperature and heat transfer.

During combustion process in a diesel engine radiation heat transfer is the same order of magnitude as the convection heat transfer. An approximation of heat and momentum source distributions is applied at a level consistent with those used in modelling the soot distribution and the turbulence instead of modelling the fuel spray and the chemical kinetics. This paper illustrates a use of the third order spherical harmonics approximation to the radiative transfer equation and delta-Eddington approximation to the scattering phase function for droplets in the flow. Results are obtained numerically by a time marching finite difference scheme. This study aims to compare heat transfer with convection heat transfer and to investigate the importance of scattering by fuel droplets and of accounting for spatial variations in the extinction coefficient on the radiative heat flux distributions at the walls of a disc shaped diesel engine.
