CFD investigation of effect of nanofluid filled Trombe wall on 3D convective heat transfer

A numerical investigation was carried out on the effect of carbon nanotube(CNT)-water-nanofluid-filled Trombe wall on heat transfer and fluid flow inside a 3 D typical room.Time depending governing equations are considered with applying hot temperature at the left surface(collector) of the Trombe wall.The left wall(glazing) of the room and a square part(window) at the right wall are considered at cold temperature.The effects of Rayleigh number and the nanofluid volume fractions and the Trombe wall height on the temperature field,flow structure and heat transfer rate,are studied.The results show that the addition of nanoparticles and the increase of the Trombe wall height,enhance the heat transfer considerably and affect the flow structure and the temperature field.

MHD three-dimensional flow of Jeffrey fluid with Newtonian heating

The magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) three-dimensional flow of Jeffrey fluid in the presence of Newtonian heating is investigated. Flow is caused by a bidirectional stretching surface. Series solutions are constructed for the velocity and temperature fields. Convergence of series solutions is ensured graphically and numerically. The variations of key parameters on the physical quantities are shown and discussed in detail. Constructed series solutions are compared with the existing solutions in the limiting case and an excellent agreement is noticed. Nusselt numbers are computed with and without magnetic fields. It is observed that the Nusselt number decreases in the presence of magnetic field.

Convective heat and mass transfer effects in three-dimensional flow of Maxwell fluid over a stretching surface with heat source

Heat and mass transfer effects in three-dimensional flow of Maxwell fluid over a stretching surface were addressed.Analysis was performed in the presence of internal heat generation/absorption. Concentration and thermal buoyancy effects were accounted. Convective boundary conditions for heat and mass transfer analysis were explored. Series solutions of the resulting problem were developed. Effects of mixed convection, internal heat generation/absorption parameter and Biot numbers on the dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration distributions were illustrated graphically. Numerical values of local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers were obtained and analyzed for all the physical parameters. It is found that both thermal and concentration boundary layer thicknesses are decreasing functions of stretching ratio. Variations of mixed convection parameter and concentration buoyancy parameter on the velocity profiles and associated boundary layer thicknesses are enhanced. Velocity profiles and temperature increase in the case of internal heat generation while they reduce for heat absorption. Heat transfer Biot number increases the thermal boundary layer thickness and temperature. Also concentration and its associated boundary layer are enhanced with an increase in mass transfer Biot number. The local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers have quite similar behaviors for increasing values of mixed convection parameter, concentration buoyancy parameter and Deborah number.

Three-Dimensional Numerical Investigation of the Separation Process in a Vortex Tube at Different Operating Conditions

Air separators provide safe, clean, and appropriate air flow to engines and are widely used in vehicles with large engines such as ships and submarines. In this operational study, the separation process in a Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube cleaning （cooling） system is investigated to analyze the impact of the operating gas type on the vortex tube performance; the operating gases used are air, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. The computational fluid dynamic model used is equipped with a three-dimensional structure, and the steady-state condition is applied during computations. The standard k-c turbulence model is employed to resolve nonlinear flow equations, and various key parameters, such as hot and cold exhaust thermal drops, and power separation rates, are described numerically. The results show that nitrogen dioxide creates the greatest separation power out of all gases tested, and the numerical results are validated by good agreement with available experimental data. In addition, a comparison is made between the use of two different boundary conditions, the pressure-far-field and the pressure-outlet, when analyzing complex turbulent flows in the air separators. Results present a comprehensive and practical solution for use in future numerical studies.

Convergence of some finite element iterative methods related to different Reynolds numbers for the 2D/3D stationary incompressible magnetohydrodynamics

Based on the finite element method(FEM), some iterative methods related to different Reynolds numbers are designed and analyzed for solving the 2D/3D stationary incompressible magnetohydrodynamics(MHD) numerically. Two-level finite element iterative methods, consisting of the classical m-iteration methods on a coarse grid and corrections on a fine grid, are designed to solve the system at low Reynolds numbers under the strong uniqueness condition. One-level Oseen-type iterative method is investigated on a fine mesh at high Reynolds numbers under the weak uniqueness condition. Furthermore, the uniform stability and convergence of these methods with respect to equation parameters R_e, R_m, S_c, mesh sizes h, H and iterative step m are provided. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed methods is confirmed by numerical investigations.

Streamwise Vortex Interaction with a Horseshoe Vortex

How control in turbomachinery is very difficult because of the complexity of its fully 3-D flow structure. The authors propose to introduce streamwise vortices into the control of internal flows. A simple configuration of vortices was investigated in order to better understand the flow control methods by means of streamwise vortices. The research presented here concerns streamwise vortex interaction with a horseshoe vortex. The effects of such an interaction are significantly dependent on the relative location of the streamwise vortex in respect to the leading edge of the profile. The streamwise vortex is induced by an air jet. The horseshoe vortex is generated by the leading edge of a symmetric profile. Such a configuration gives possibility to investigate the interaction of these two vortices alone. The presented analysis is based on numerical simulations by means of N-S compressible solver with a two-equation turbulence model.
