The experimental results show that fine equiaxed grains are acquired under the action of low voltage pulsed magnetic field. The refinement effect of the pulsed magnetic field is affected by the melt cooling rate and superheating. The decrease of cooling rate and superheating enhance the refinement effect of the low voltage pulsed magnetic field. The magnetic force and the melt flow during solidification are modeled and simulated to reveal the grain refinement mechanism. It is considered that the melt convection caused by the pulsed magnetic field, as well as cooling rate and superheating contributes to the refinement of solidified grains.展开更多

The key point of TDHCF is to enhance heat transfer by the fluid thermal driving in closed loop small channels placed in the high centrifugal field. Heat transfer characteristics of the new cooling technique are analyzed. In experiments, two different fluids (liquid water and Freon R12) are used as thermal driving media (fluid inside the loop channel). And the channel width d is 1 mm and the height h is 30 mm. The temperature is measured by thermocouples and an average heat transfer coefficient KH is defined to indicate heat transfer capacity of TDHCF. Experimental results show that KH is enhanced when heat flux and the rotating speed increase. And thermal properties of thermal driving media are also influenced by KH. Larger KH can be achieved by using Freon R12 as thermal driving medium compared with using liquid water. It can increase to 2 300 W/(m^2 · K) and it is much higher than that of the normal air cooling method (usually at the level of 600-1200 W/(m^2·K)). All fundamental studies of TDHCF show that there actually exists thermal driving in the closed loop small channel in the centrifugal field to improve heat transfer characteristics.展开更多

The peak in susceptibility against temperature shifts to lower temperature when the bias field increases. As the field still increases, the peak breaks into two peaks. One peak still shifts to lower temperature; the other shifts to higher temperature. Zero bias field susceptibility was measured at different frequencies. The peak value decreases as the increase of frequency, but it does not shift to higher temperature as reported previously. The results show that SrRuO 3 is not spin glass, but ferromagnet.展开更多

The particle image velocimetery (PIV) experiments were carried out to get thermal flow field of a ACC under different conditions in low velocity wind tunnel,at the same time,the recirculation ratio at cooling tower was measured,so the relationship between flow field characteristics and recirculation ratio of cooling tower can be discussed. From the results we can see that the flow field configuration around cooling tower has great effects on average recirculation ratio under cooling tower. The eddy formed around cooling tower is a key reason that recirculation produces. The eddy intensity relates to velocity magnitude and direction angle,and the configuration of eddy lies on the geometry size of cooling tower. So changing the flow field configuration around cooling tower reasonably can decrease recirculation ratio under cooling tower,and heat dispel effect of ACC can also be improved.展开更多

It was shown in the previous study that the temporal changes of vertical water temperature distributions during the cooling period between September and February can be reproduced by a simple 3D-CFD model. It was also pointed out that the spatial distributions of cooled water body sinking to the bottom due to water surface cooling represent similar features of forest gap distribution, which can be clarified by a stochastic model. The basic features of numerical experiments on thermal convection such as the spatial distribution of cooled water body are firstly shown with several cooling rates at water surface. Then, a stochastic model, which was originally introduced to explain forest gap dynamics, is shown with its MFA (mean field approximation) as first approximation of stochastic model. It is pointed out through the comparison of theoretical results by MFA with tuned model constants to numerical experiments that MFA with some refinement can be applicable to reproduce the basic features of simulated results to some extent, although further investigations are required to clarify the applicability of the model to more detailed mechanism of thermal convection such as size distribution of cooled water body, phase change of flow pattern, etc..展开更多

We apply the field synergy principle for fluid flow to obtain the optimal flow field, which has a uniform velocity distribution without eddy, and then, optimize the geometrical structure of the cooling water flow channel based on the optimal flow field. The results show that when the cooling water flows in the optimized channel, the eddy sizes decrease, the time fluctuations of velocity and pressure almost vanish, and the volume flow rates of the cooling water in each parallel slit are uniform. Therefore, it effectively improves the running stability of the target system with the premise of satisfying the target heat load.展开更多

The problems of flow dead area and mass flow rate non-uniform distribution caused by the local structure effect the cooling effectiveness in the channel seriously. Numerical simulation to the flow field of scramjet cold panel with four different fuel injection island structures respectively has been carried out using the CFD commercial software-CFX in this research. The results reveal that flow dead area has been eliminated and flow field has been improved for the optimized structure. Furthermore, local resistance loss has been decreased and the mass flow rate non-uniform distribution in the channel has been reduced. Based on the optimized results, some suggestions about the local design of cooling panel have been proposed in this research.展开更多
