The purpose of this study was to investigate the enhancement of heat transfer without additional external power in the case of rectangular air jet impinging vertically on the flat heating surface. In an attempt to enhance the heat transfer rate in two-dimensional impinging jet, the technique used in the present study was placement of square rod bundles as a turbluence promoter in front of the heat transfer surface. The effects of the clearance between the flat plate and square rod, and the nozzle exit velocity on the heat transfer characteristics have been investigated experimentally. The results obtained through this study were summerized as follows. High heat transfer enhancement was achived by means of flow acceleration and thinning of boundary layer by inserting rods in front of the heating flat plate. The smaller the clearance between rod and heating plate was, the larger heat transfer effect became. Average Nusselt number reached maximum at $Re=5.76{\times}10^4$ and C＝1㎜ and the enhancement rate of heat transfer became maxium at this condition with the enhancement ratio as high as about 1.427 when normalized by the flat plate value. The correlating equation of average Nusselt number and Reynolds number was obtained, which is $\bar{N}uo=1.324{\cdot}Re^{0.459}{\cdot}(C/A)^{-0.034}$.

The present study has been conducted to investigate the effects of Reynolds number on heat/mass transfer and pressure drop characteristics in a rotating smooth two-pass duct. For stationary cases, the heat/mass transfer and pressure drop Is decreased on turning region of both leading and trailing surfaces as Reynolds number increases. For rotating cases, increment of Reynolds number affects differently the heat/mass transfer and pressure drop on the leading and trailing surfaces. In the first pass, for example, the heat/mass transfer on the leading surface is greatly increased, though the heat/mass transfer on the trailing surface is almost the same. The reason is that effect of the main flow is more dominant than effect of secondary flow. In particular, it gave decrement of the heat/mass transfer and the pressure drop at turning region and upstream region of second pass for both non-rotating and rotating cases.

Numerical simulations are conducted to analyze conjugate heat transfer characteristics in a ribbed channel. In this simulation, the effects of Reynolds number and heat capacity of the solid channel wall on convective heat transfer are observed in the turbulent flow regime. In the case of the conducting wall against isothermal wall, the relative ratio of the thermal resistance between the solid wall and the flow field varies with Reynolds number. Thus the characteristics of the conjugate heat transfer are changed with the Reynolds number. Heat capacity ratio affects the temperature fluctuation inside solid wall. The temperature fluctuation inside the solid wall decreases with increasing the heat capacity of the solid wall so that the convective heat transfer increases. When the thermal conductivity ratio is smaller than 10, the effects of flow characteristics on heat transfer are changed.

A numerical analysis of the heat and mass transfer and pressure drop characteristics in modular shell and tube bundle heat exchanger was carried out. Finite Concept Method based on FVM and $k-\varepsilon$ turbulent model were used for this analysis. Condensation heat transfer enhanced total heat transfer rate $4\sim8%$ higher than that of dry heat exchanger. With increasing humid air inlet velocity, temperature and relative humidity, and with decreasing heat exchanger aspect ratio and cooling water velocity, total heat and mass transfer rate could be increased. Cooling water inlet velocity had little effect on total heat transfer.

The heat transfer and friction characteristics of the heat exchangers having sinusoidal wave fins were experimentally investigated. Twenty-nine samples having different waffle heights (1.5 mm and 2.0 m), fin pitches (1.3mm to 1.7mm) and tube rows (one to three) were tested. Focus was given to the effect of the waffle configuration (herringbone or sinusoidal) on the heat transfer and friction characteristics. Results show that the sinusoidal wave geometry provides higher heat transfer coefficients and friction factors than the herringbone wave geometry, and the difference increases as the number of row increases. The i/f ratios of the herringbone wave geometry, however, are larger than those of the sinusoidal wave geometry. Compared to the herringbone wave geometry, the sinusoidal wave geometry yielded a weak row effect, which suggests a superior heat transfer performance at the fully developed flow region. Possible explanation is provided considering the flow characteristics in wavy channels. Within the present geometric range, the effect of the waffle height on the heat transfer coefficient was not prominent. The effect of the fin pitch was also negligible. Existing correlations highly overpredicted both the heat transfer coefficients and friction factors. A new correlation was developed using the present data.

In this paper, the experimental results on evaporation heat transfer characteristics were reported for a micro-fin tube using $CO_2$. An experimental refrigerant loop had been established to measure the evaporation heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop of $CO_2$. Experiments were conducted for mass fluxes, heat fluxes, saturation temperatures and PAG oil concentrations. With increasing the heat flux and the saturation temperature, the evaporation heat transfer coefficient increased. At the higher mass flux, however, the exit vapor quality of the micro-fin tube was to be lower. The peak of the heat transfer coefficient was shifted toward low quality region. The evaporation pressure drop increased as the mass flux increased and the saturation temperature decreased. As PAG oil concentration increased, the evaporation heat transfer coefficient decreased and the dryout was delayed by oil addition.

This paper describes on experimental investigation into the heat dissipation of Diesel engine, placing emphasis on the variations of compression ratio and cooling water temperature. The engine used for this test was a vertical single-cylinder four-cycle type, having a direct injection. Engine performance and heat transfer rates was tested under the compression ratio 14.3 and 17.4. In this study, the results showed that output and transfer rates of engine decrease in accordance with the decrease of compression ratio. The effect of cooling water temperature and injection delay of fuel on the heat dissipation brings about the decrease of heat transfer rates from cylinder to cooling water.

Absorption systems require a heat source for working but they have a great merit in that relatively low-temperature and low-quality types of thermal energy such as solar heat and exhaust heat can be effectively utilized as heat source. However details research related to absorbers which have a great effect on performances has been rarely done and thus there has been a strong hope for positive developments to improve their efficiencies. This paper describes absorption experiments made with different inside tube diameters and shapes. The purpose of this study is to acquire basic knowledge about heat and mass transfer in a falling film type absorber with vertical inner tubes. Heat and mass transfer were measured for water vapor absorption into a water/LiBr solution flowing down an absorber of vertical inner tubes. As a result absorption acceleration tube compares bare tube and heat transfer improved by order of insert spring tube corrugated tube grooved tube. And the acceleration that is good provided in inserting spring tube for both sides of heat and mass transfer.

The present study has been accomplished to elucidate the effect of radiation heat transfer in the heat transfer analysis of refrigerator gasket, which has near 30% of refrigerator heat loss. The numerical heat transfer analysis has been conducted with the simplified modeling of refrigerator gasket. From the present CFD analysis, heat loss at the gasket is $25.6W/m^2$ for the case without radiation effect and that for the case with radiation effect is $55.0W/m^2$, which is 2.2 times greater heat loss. The radiation protection layers were installed in the gasket from 0 to 7 and the case with 7 layers has 33% reduction effect of heat loss compared with the case without any radiation protection layer. Additionally, it is better effect of radiation heat loss reduction that the radiation protection layers would be placed to the outer or inner side of gasket rather than placing to the center of gasket.
