The effects of the inclination of enclosure and partition on natural convective flow and heat transfer were investigated numerically. The enclosure was composed of the lower hot and the upper cold horizontal walls and the adiabatic vertical walls, and a partition was positioned perpendicularly at the mid-height of one vertical insulated wall. The governing equations are solved by using the finite element method with Galerkin method. The computations were performed with the variations of the partition length and Rayleigh number based on the temperature difference between two horizontal walls and the enclosure height with water(Pr=4.95). The effects of the inclination angle of enclosure and partition on the heat transfer within an enclosure were also studied. As the results, the increase of the inclination angle of enclosure rapidly raised the heat transfer rate, while the inclination angle for the maximum Nusselt number was retarded with the increase of the partition length and the decrease of the heat transfer rate became larger in proportion to the increase of the partition length. The Nusselt number obtained by the inclination of partition was smaller than that of the inclination of enclosure. However, the difference of the heat transfer rates was considerably decreased at the longer partition lengths and the trends for the variation of the average Nusselt number were more similar with that of the inclination of enclosure. The upward oriented partition increases the convective heat transfer distinctly in contrast to that of the inclination of enclosure as the partition length increases.

A computational study of combined thermal and solutal convection (double diffusive convection) in a sealed crystal growth reactor is presented, based on a two-dimensional numerical analysis of the nonlinear and strongly coupled partial differential equations and their associated boundary conditions. The average Nusselt numbers for the source regions are greater than those at the crystal regions for 9.73 × 10³ ≤ Gr_t ≤ 6.22 × 10⁵. The average Nusselt numbers for the source regions varies linearly and increases directly with the thermal Grashof number form 9.73 × 10³ ≤ Gr_t ≤ 6.22 × 10⁵ for aspect ratio, Ar (transport length-to-width) = 1 and 2. Additionally, the average Nusselt numbers for the crystal regions at Ar = 1 are much greater than those at Ar = 2. Also, the occurrence of one unicellular flow structure is caused by both the thermal and solutal convection, which is inherent during the physical vapor transport of Hg₂Br₂. When the aspect ratio of the enclosure increases, the fluid movement is hindered and results in the decrease of thermal buoyancy force.

Natural convection in trapezoidal sections of cavity was numerically investigated using a Finite Volume Method. Temperatures of the upper inclined and lower horizontal walls are constant, with vertical side walls being insulated. When the top wall is hotter than the bottom one, a single cell of stratified flow field is obtained and heat transfer occurs only by conduction. For the colder top wall, bifurcation solutions are obtained for the higher Rayleigh numbers, while unique solutions for lower values. Flow structure is strongly dependent on the configuration and the Rayleigh number.

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.

본 연구에서는 직사각형 밀폐공간내에서 자연대류와 복사의 상호 영향에 대해 서 P-1 근사를 이용하여 수치적으로 해석하였다.밀폐공간내에서의 온도분포, 속도 분포 및 열전달계수를 구하였으며 열경계층내에서의 전도와 복사의 상호 영향에 대하 여 고찰하였다. 표면 복사만이 존재하는 경우에 대해서도 고찰함으로써 P-1 근사의 적용한계를 규명하였다. 벽면을 산광 방사 및 반사체(diffuse emitter and reflec- tor)로, 기체는 회색체(gray body)로 가정하였다. 이는 복사 물성치의 파장에 따른 변화를 고려할 때의 대단히 복잡한 계산 과정을 피할 수 있고, 현재의 이론적 수준에 비추어 복사 열전달의 열향을 정성적으로 규명하는데 타당한 가정이다.

The numerical study for the effect of various factors that affect the temperature distribution of the process glass installed above the large rectangular heater plate was carried out. For the calculation, heat flux, distance between heat source and process glass plate, effect of vacuum condition and convection in a chamber were considered as important factors. The results showed that the temperature gradient on the glass was increased at the natural convection because of the buoyancy force increases due to the heated air. Also, the more heat flux and distance between the heater plate and glass increases, the more increasing the temperature gradient was. In the case of isothermal heating wall, the temperature variation was smaller than the uniform heat flux condition.

본 논문에서는 에너지방정식과 비정상 비압축성 Navier-Stokes 방적식을 사용하여 동절기 소방배관의 동파방지를 위한 최적의 열선위치를 확인하였다. 물의 자연대류와 소방 배관의 전도 열방정식이 결합된 복합열전달을 해석하였다. 혼합 열전달 배관 내 물의 비정상적인 유동과 온도분포를 확인하기 위하여 SIMPLE 형태의 알고리즘을 기반으로 한 상용코드(ANSYS-FLUENT)가 사용되었다. 수치해석을 수행하여 등온선과 벡터장을 살펴보았다. 물의 열팽창계수를 일정하다고 가정할 때 소방 배관 단면의 하부에 열선을 설치하는 것이 다른 위치에 설치하는 것보다 시간에 따른 물의 최저온도가 가장 높아서 동파방지에 가장 효과적인 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Natural convective flow and heat transfer characteristics in a partially opened enclosure fitted with a horizontal divider are investigated numerically. The enclosure is composed of a lower hot and a upper cold horizontal walls and adiabatic vertical walls. A divider is attached perpendicularly to the vertical insulated wall. The governing equations are solved by using the finite element method with Galerkin method. The computations have been carried out by varying the length of divider, the opening size, and the Rayleigh number based on the temperature difference between two horizontal walls and the enclosure height for air(Pr=0.71). As result, when the opening size is fixed, the intensity of the secondary flow is weaken as the length of divider increases. The maximum heat transfer rate over the upper cold wall occurs at a position bounded on the opening. However, when the length of divider is increased considerably, its maximum occurs at the right wall. The stability and frequency of oscillation are affected by the Rayleigh number and length of divider. The Nusselt number is increased with the increase of the opening size and the increase of Rayleigh number.

In comparison with some other light sources, LED has merits such as increased life expectancy, fast response, pollution free, and high energy efficiency. Lately, due to development of LED with high brightness and capacity, LED has widely used in many industrial fields such as automotive, aviation, display, transportation and special lighting applications. Since the high heat generation of LED chips can cause a reduction in lifetime, degradation of luminous efficiency, and variation of color temperature, studies have been carried out on the optimization of LED packaging and heat sinks. In this study, experiments on measuring the heat generation rate of LED and the cooling performance of a heat sink were carried for analyzing the thermal characteristics of LED lighting system in free convection. From the results, dimensionless correlation on the cooling performance of heat sink in natural convection was proposed with Nusselt number and Rayleigh number as a guideline for designing cooling device of LED lightings.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the cooling performance of radial heat sink used for high power LED lightings by natural convection cooling with surrounding air. Experimental and numerical analyses are carried out together. Parametric studies are performed to compare the effects of geometric parameters in radial heat sink such as the number of fins, fin height, fin length, and thickness of fin base as well as the surface coatings of radial heat sink. In this study, the cooling of 60 W LED lamp is examined with radiative heat transfer considered as well as natural convection. Numerical results show the optimum condition when the number of fin is 40, heat sink height is 120 mm, fin length is 15 mm, and fin base thickness is 3 mm. The difference in temperature of the LED metal PCB is within $1^{\circ}C$ between numerical analyses and experimental results. Also, the CNT coating on the heat sink surface is found to increase the cooling performance significantly.
