Natural convection of a fluid with the Prandtl number of 7(water) in a horizontal annulus with constant temperature walls is numerically investigated. The inner cylinder is hotter than the outer cylinder. The flows are classified by the number of eddies in a half annulus. It is found that dual or triple solutions exists above a critical Rayleigh number for an annulus with a aspect ratio $D_i/L=4$. Transitions of $3{\rightarrow}1$ and $2{\rightarrow}1$ eddy flow occur with decrease of Rayleigh number. However, reverse transitions of $1{\rightarrow}3$ and $1{\rightarrow}2$ eddy flow do not occur with increase of Rayleigh number, and no hysteresis phenomenon is observed. In the regime of triple solutions, the 3 eddy flow has the largest mean Nusselt number value and the 1 eddy flow has the smallest value.

Mixed convection in a horizontal annulus is considered, and the effect of a forced flow on the natural convective flow is investigated. The inner cylinder is hotter than the outer cylinder, and the outer cylinder is rotating with constant angular velocity with its axis at the center of the annulus. The unsteady streamfunction-vorticity equation is solved with a finite difference method. For the fluid with Pr=0.7, there appear flows with two eddies, one eddy, or no eddy according the Rayleigh and Reynolds numbers. The rotation of the outer cylinder reduces the heat transfer rate at the wall of the annulus. The oscillatory multicellular flow of a low Prandtl number fluid with Pr=0.01 can be effectively suppressed by the forced flow.

Numerical analysis has been carried out for two-dimensional steady and unsteady mixed convection in the annulus between co-rotating horizontal cylinders with a heated inner cylinder. The ratio of annulus gap($\sigma$) is taken from 1 to 10 and the order of mixed-convection parameter B(=Gr/(1+Re)$^2$) varies from 10$^4$to $10^0$. The flow patterns over this parameter range are steady multicellular, oscillatory multicellular or steady unicellular. The addition of co-rotating of both cylinders stabilizes the flow in the annulus and weakens the unsteadiness. Even in the large values of rotating parameter such as of $10^0$/($\sigma$=2) and 10$^2$($\sigma$=10), the flow pattern becomes asymptotic to the steady unicellular flow, like as in the rigid-body rotating flow.

Mixed convection of air in a horizontal concentric cylindrical annulus is investigated numerically. Isothermal boundary conditions are prescribed at the inner and outer cylinders, with the inner cylinder being warmer. The forced flow is induced by the outer cylinder which is rotating slowly with constant angular velocity with its axis at the center of the annulus. The effect of the forced flow on the flow pattern and heat transfer of natural convection is investigated for the annulus of (inner-cylinder radius/gap width) = 1. There appear two eddies, one eddy or no eddy according to the Rayleigh and Reynolds numbers. Map of the three flow regimes is constructed on the Ra-Re plane. (author). 28 refs., 9 figs., 2 tabs.

Natural convection of low Prandtl number fluids with $Pr{\leq}0.2$ in a narrow horizontal annulus is numerically investigated. For $Pr{\leq}0.2$, hydrodynamic instability induces oscillatory multicellular flows consisting of multiple like-rotating cells. For a fluid with $Pr{\approx}0$, the region in which instability of conduction regime first forms is near the vertical section of annulus, and the multiple cells are distributed uniformly in the lower and upper regions of annulus. As Pr increases, however, the cells are shifted upwards. The like-rotating cells drift downward, as time goes on, and the speed of travel increases with increase of Pr. For a fluid with Pr=0.1, a flow with period-4 solution is observed between chaotic states.

Natural convection of air in a horizontal annulus with the inner cylinder cooled by the application of a constant heat flux and the isothermally heated outer cylinder is considered. The bifurcation phenomenon of flow patterns and the heat transfer characteristics are numerically investigated. The zero initial condition induces a unicellular flow in a half annulus. A bicellular flow consisting of two counter-rotating eddies in a half annulus can be obtained above a certain critical Rayleigh number. A transition from the bicellular to the unicellular flow occurs with a decrease in Rayleigh number. Hysteresis phenomena have not been observed. In the regime of dual flows, the overall Nusselt number of the bicellular flow is greater than that of the unicellular flow.

경사각이 대기압하의 포화상태인 물의 풀비등에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 실험을 통한 연구를 수행하였다. 연구를 위하여 5mm의 틈새간격을 가지는 하부유로개폐 상태인 환상공간을 고려하였다. 환상공간의 내부에 설치된 튜브를 가열하였으며 튜브의 직경과 길이는 각각 25.4mm와 500mm이다. 경사각은 수평부터 수직까지 변경하였다. 본 실험의 결과를 틈새간격이 더 큰 환상공간 및 단일튜브에 대한 결과와 서로 비교하였다. 작은 틈새간격을 가지는 환상공간의 경우 경사각이 열전달에 미치는 영향은 그다지 크지 않음을 확인하였다. 그러나 환상공간이 수평상태인 경우 80kW/$m^2$에서 임계열유속이 관찰되었다. 액체 교란의 정도와 기포군집형성이 환상공간 내부 풀비등의 주된 열전달 기구로 이해된다.

Laminal natural convection heat transfer in the annulus between isothermal horizontal non-circular cylinders is studied by solving the Navier-Stokes and energy equation using an elliptic numerical procedure. Results are obtained to determine the effects of the diameter ratio($D_o/D_i$) and Rayleigh number on heat transfer. The diameter ratio is varied from 1.5 to 13.0 at Pr=0.7, H/L=1.5 and $10^3{\leqslant}Ra_L{\leqslant}4{\times}10^4$. It is found that the diameter ratio causes a more significant on the local heat transfer coefficient of lower semi-circular cylinder and plate than upper semi-circular cylinder. The mean Nusselt number increases as the diameter ratio and Rayleigh number increase, and is higher than that of the circular annulus with a same wetted perimeter.

Natural convection heat transfer in a horizontal annulus from an inner tube with two vertical fins has been studied for the effects of dimensionless fin length and Rayleigh number. The maximum local Nusselt number of inner tube was obtained at .theta. = 145.deg. and that of outer cylinder at .theta. = 0.deg. for the case of $l_{F}$=0.3 Local Nusselt number distributions for the lower fins show higher values than that of the upper fins. The mean Nusselt number of inner tube was increased with the values of dimensionless fin length. The mean Nusselt number can be represented in an exponential function of Grashof number at various fin lengths. As compared with experimental and numerical results, isotherms and local Nusselt number show good agreement.t.
