Heat Transfer in Horizontal Copper Tube Heated by Electric Heating Process

Heat transfer from electrical and electronics component is essential for better performance of that electrical system,The maximum heat transfer from that system results long period durability.In most of the system base provided for equipments are very small and placed in a very complicated position.so heat transfer by forced convection is not easy for that purpose.The heat transfer by natural convection is the familiar technique used in electronics cooling;there is huge group of apparatus that lends itself to natural convection.This category consist of stand-alone correspondence such as modems and small computers having an array of printed circuit boards(PCB)accumulate within an area.Natural convection heat transfer in heated horizontal duct drive away heat from the interior surface is offered.The duct is open-ended and round in cross section.The test section is heated by provision of heating coils,where constant wall heat flux mentioned.Heat transfer experiment is carried out for channel of 50 mm.internal diameter and 4 mm thickness with length 600 mm.Ratios of length to diameter of the channel are taken as L/D=12.Wall heat fluxes maintained at q//=300 W/m2 to 3150 W/m2.A methodical investigational record for the local steady state natural convection heat transfer activities is obtained.The wall heating condition on local steady-state heat transfer phenomena are studied.The present experimental data is compared with the existing theoretical and experimental results for the cases of vertical smooth tubes.

Numerical Study on Flow Heat Transfer Characteristics of Horizontal Tube Falling-Film Evaporator

As an efficient and energy-saving heat exchange technology, horizontal tube falling film evaporation has a great application prospect in refrigeration and air conditioning. The three-dimensional models of falling film flow evaporation outside horizontal single tube and inside evaporator were established, and the accuracy of flow and heat transfer simulation process was verified by comparison. For horizontal single tube, the results showed that total heat transfer coefficient was low and increased with larger spray density and evaporation temperature. The thickness of liquid film outside tube decreased gradually with the increase of tube diameter, and the total heat transfer coefficient of small tube diameter was significantly greater than that of the large tube diameter. The total heat transfer coefficient presented an increasing trend with larger liquid distribution height and density. In addition, the fluctuation of tube axial liquid film thickness distribution decreased with larger liquid distribution density. For evaporator, the results indicated that part of liquid refrigerant was carried into the vapor outlet. The temperature of tube wall and fluid presented a gradually rising trend in vertical downward direction, while tube wall temperature within the same horizontal and transverse row had little difference. The high-temperature zone on the outer wall of heat exchange tube moved towards the inlet and gradually decreased, and the outlet temperature of water in the tube also gradually decreased with the increase of refrigerant spray density. The local heat transfer coefficient of heat exchanger tube in the vertical direction presented a downward trend which was more obvious with the smaller spray density and it was obviously higher located in the middle of upper tube row and both sides of lower tube row for horizontal tube rows.

Numerical simulation on flow of ice slurry in horizontal straight tube

Numerical simulation on flow of ice slurry in horizontal straight tubes was conducted in this paper to improve its transportation characteristics and application.This paper determined the influence of the diameter and length of tubes,the ice packing factors(IPF)and the flow velocity of ice slurry on pressure loss by using numerical simulation,based on two-phase flow and the granular dynamic theory.Furthermore,it was found that the deviation between the simulation results and experimental data could be reduced from 20%to 5%by adjusting the viscosity which was reflected by velocity.This confirmed the reliability of the simulation model.Thus,two mathematical correlations between viscosity and flow velocity were developed eventually.It could also be concluded that future rheological model of ice slurry should be considered in three sections clarified by the flow velocity,which determined the fundamental difference from single-phase fluid.

A study of spray granulation in vibrated fluidized bed with internal heating tubes

The granulation process in a vibratedfluidized bed with immersed horizontal heating tubes was studied in this paper,with small monoammonium phosphate particles as the initial particles and monoammonium phosphate solution sprayed on them.The concrete influences on the granulating performance of the immersed horizontal heating power,fluidizing gas velocity,vibration frequency and amplitude had been analyzed theoretically.The results show that appropriate vibration intensity is a preferred condition for the growth of partials,but thefine dust will become much more along with prolonged vibration.Increasing the heating power is beneficial to raise the growth rate.Particles will grow faster if thefluidizing gas velocity is higher,but this will cause morefine dust.The optimized condition of A=0.002 m,f=6.67 Hz,u=1.4 m/s was given after the analysis of the experimental results.In the end,a semiempirical formula was derived from the experiment data,and the calculation results show good agreement with the experimental data.
