CALCULATION OF HEAT TRANSFER FROM PRESSURE DROP IN TUBE BUNDLES Holger Martin and Volker Gnielinski Universität Karlsruhe (TH), Thermische Verfahrenstechnik, D-76128 Karlsruhe ABSTRACT A new type of analogy between pressure drop and heat transfer has been discovered, that may be used in chevron-type plate heat exchangers, in packed beds, and in tube bundles. It is based on the „generalized Lévêque equation“. Available experimental data on heat transfer in tube bundles in crossflow, both inline, and staggered arrangements, have been tested in greater detail. Using an empirical correlation for pressure drop in these arrangements from the literature that has been successfully tested against a large number of experimental pressure drop data, we found that the heat transfer data collected earlier could be very well represented from the pressure drop correlation and the generalized Lévêque equation. The fraction xf of the total pressure drop that is due to fluid friction only, and therefore related to the average shear rate at the surface, turned out to be a constant over the whole range of Reynolds numbers. The new method has the advantage, that apart from the empirical pressure drop correlation, the heat or mass transfer coefficients are obtained from an equation based on theory. The method results in a heat transfer prediction for bundles with more than two rows of tubes, which is at least as good as the existing empirical heat transfer correlations that do not make use of an analogy. 1.

    Journal of Thermal Engineering, Vol. 6, No. 3, pp. 327-345, April, 2020 Yildiz Technical University Press, Istanbul, Turkey ENTROPY GENERATION IN MHD FLOW OF VISCOELASTIC NANOFLUIDS WITH HOMOGENEOUS-HETEROGENEOUS REACTION, PARTIAL SLIP AND NONLINEAR THERMAL RADIATION M. Almakki1, H. Mondal2*, P. Sibanda3 ABSTRACT We investigate the combined effects of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions in the boundary layer flow of a viscoelastic nanofluid over a stretching sheet with nonlinear thermal radiation. The incompressible fluid is electrically conducting with an applied a transverse magnetic field. The conservation equations are solved using the spectral quasi-linearization method. This analysis is carried out in order to enhance the system performance, with the source of entropy generation and the impact of Bejan number on viscoelastic nanofluid due to a partial slip in homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions flow using the spectral quasi-linearization method. Various fluid parameters of interest such as entropy generation, Bejan number, fluid velocity, shear stress heat and mass transfer rates are studied quantitatively, and their behaviors are depicted graphically. A comparison of the entropy generation due to the heat transfer and the fluid friction is made with the help of the Bejan number. Among the findings reported in this study is that the entropy generation has a significant impact in controlling the rate of heat transfer in the boundary layer region. Keywords: Nanofluids, Viscoelastic Fluid, Homogeneous—Heterogeneous Reactions, Nonlinear Thermal Radiation. INTRODUCTION In recent years, nanofluids have attracted a considerable amount of interest due to their novel properties that make them potentially useful in a number of industrial applications including transportation, power generation, micro manufacturing, thermal therapy for cancer treatment, chemical and metallurgical sectors, heating, cooling, ventilation, and air-conditioning.

  • 1 Computational Fluid Dynamics Based Approach for Predicting Heat
    Computational Fluid Dynamics Based Approach for Predicting Heat Transfer and Flow Characteristics of Inline Tube Banks with Large Transverse Spacing Niko Pietari Niemelä, Antti Mikkonen, Kaj Lampio, Jukka Konttinen Materials Science and Environmental Engineering, Tampere University, Kalevantie 4, 33100 Tampere, Finland Address correspondence to Niko Pietari Niemelä, Tampere University (TAU), Kalevantie 4, 33100 Tampere, Finland, E-mail: [email protected], Phone Number: +358 40 838 1434 1 ABSTRACT Inline tube configuration is used in various heat exchangers, such as power plant superheaters. The important design parameters are the longitudinal and transverse spacing between the tubes, as they determine the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the tube bank. In superheaters, the transverse tube spacing is often relatively large in order to avoid clogging of the flow passages due to deposition of particulate matter. To design and optimize superheaters is a challenging task, especially because of the complicated vortex-shedding phenomenon. This also complicates the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling, because unsteady simulation approach is required. This paper discusses about various factors that affect the accuracy of prediction of heat transfer and flow characteristics of inline tube banks with large transverse spacing. A suitable CFD model is constructed by comparing different boundary conditions, domain dimensions, domain size, and turbulence models in unsteady simulations. The numerically obtained Nusselt numbers are evaluated against available heat transfer correlations. The correlation of Gnielinski is recommended for tube banks with large transverse spacing, as it agrees within ±13% with the numerically obtained values. The guidelines presented in the paper can serve as reference for future simulations of unsteady flow phenomena.

  • The Dimnum Package
    The dimnum package Miguel R. Clemente [email protected] v1.0.1 from 2021/04/05 Note: Prandtl number is redefined from the amsmath package. 1 Introduction This package simplifies the calling of Dimensionless Numbers in math or text mode. In Table 1 you can find all available Dimensionless Numbers. 2 Usage A Dimensionless number is composed of four items: the command, the symbol, the name, its identifier. You can call a Dimensionless Number in three distinct ways: by its symbol { using the command (i.e. \Ar { Ar). by its name (short version) { appending [s] to the command (i.e. \Bi[s] { Biot). by its name and identifier (long version) { appending [l] to the command (i.e. \Kn[l] { Knudsen number). Symbol, short and long versions, all work in math or text mode without the need of further commands. 1 Besides the comprehensive list of included Dimensionless Numbers, this pack- age also introduces a command to create new Dimensionless Numbers. Creating a Dimensionless Number is achieved by using \newdimnum{\command}{symbol}{name}{identifier} for example, to add the Morton number we write \newdimnum{\Mo}{Mo}{Morton}{number} The identifier can be left empty, such as in the case of Drag Coefficient \newdimnum{Cd}{\ensuremath{C_d}}{Drag Coefficient}{} in this example we also introduce an important command. When the Dimension- less Number symbol is always expressed in math mode { either by definition or the use of subscripts or superscripts { we add \ensuremath{} to encompass the symbol, ensuring a proper representation of the Dimensionless Number. You can add your own Dimensionless Numbers to your projects.

Foreword The Saudi Standards ,Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO)has adopted the International standard No. ISO 80000-11:2019 “Quantities and units — Part 11: Characteristic numbers” issued by (ISO). The text of this international standard has been translated into Arabic so as to be approved as a Saudi standard. DRAFT DRAFT SAUDI STANDADR SASO ISO 80000-11: 2020 Introduction Characteristic numbers are physical quantities of unit one, although commonly and erroneously called “dimensionless” quantities. They are used in the studies of natural and technical processes, and (can) present information about the behaviour of the process, or reveal similarities between different processes. Characteristic numbers often are described as ratios of forces in equilibrium; in some cases, however, they are ratios of energy or work, although noted as forces in the literature; sometimes they are the ratio of characteristic times. Characteristic numbers can be defined by the same equation but carry different names if they are concerned with different kinds of processes. Characteristic numbers can be expressed as products or fractions of other characteristic numbers if these are valid for the same kind of process. So, the clauses in this document are arranged according to some groups of processes. As the amount of characteristic numbers is tremendous, and their use in technology and science is not uniform, only a small amount of them is given in this document, where their inclusion depends on their common use.

  • Multiscale Modeling of Heterogeneous Catalysis in Porous Metal Foam
    UNIVERSITY PRESS In this work, we investigate and optimize heterogeneous catalysis in porous metal foams. First, we consider the gas dynamics together with the reaction and diffusion processes in individual foam pores on the mesoscale. Second, we condense the detailed simulation results on the mesoscale to relations between few dimensionless numbers. Based on these relations, we follow a multiscale approach to derive an efficient, one-dimensional, macroscale model for metal foam filled catalytic converters. Due to its industrial relevance, we focus on the mass transfer limited regime. Finally, we develop a simple recipe to determine optimum pore size configurations. For ealisticr heat release values, the heat transfer out of the catalytic converter is critical. We show that, in order to keep temperature fluctuations small, the optimum configuration consists of several, stacked foam segments with decreasing pore size along the main flow direction. For typical parameters, we observe that, compared to foam with constant pore size, the trade-off between chemical conversion and flow resistance can be increased significantly, while the required reactive surface area, i.e., the needed amount of catalytic material, is reduced substantially.

  • The Generalized Lévêque Equation and Its Use to Predict Heat Or Mass Transfer from Fluid Friction
    Invited Lecture, published in Proc. 20th National Heat Transfer Conference, UIT, Maratea, Italy, 27-29 June 2002, pp. 21-29 THE GENERALIZED LÉVÊQUE EQUATION AND ITS USE TO PREDICT HEAT OR MASS TRANSFER FROM FLUID FRICTION Holger Martin Thermische Verfahrenstechnik, Universitaet Karlsruhe (TH) 76128 Karlsruhe ABSTRACT A new type of analogy between frictional pressure drop and heat transfer has been discovered that may be used in chevron- type plate heat exchangers, in tube bundles, in crossed-rod matrices, and in many other internal flow situations. It is based on the Generalized Lévêque Equation (GLE). This is a generalization of the well known asymptotic solution for thermally developing, hydrodynamically developed tube flow, which was first derived by A. Lévêque in 1928. Nusselt or Sherwood 2 numbers turn out to be proportional to the cubic root of the frictional pressure drop (xRe ) under these conditions. It was found that using a friction factor x= xf xtotal leads to a very reasonable agreement between the analogy predictions and the experimental results. The fraction xf of the total pressure drop coefficient xtotal that is due to fluid friction only, turned out to be a constant over the whole range of Reynolds numbers in many cases. For the packed beds of spheres, Ergun’s equation, or more appropriate equations from the literature may be used to calculate the total pressure drop. The new method can also be used in external flow situations, not only for internal flow as shown so far. This is demonstrated here for a single sphere as well as for a single cylinder in cross flow.

  • Dimensionless Numbers
    Dimensionless Numbers https://www.iist.ac.in/sites/default/files/people/numbers.html Dimensionless Numbers A. Salih Dept. of Aerospace Engineering IIST, Thiruvananthapuram The nondimensionalization of the governing equations of fluid flow is important for both theoretical and computational reasons. Nondimensional scaling provides a method for developing dimensionless groups that can provide physical insight into the importance of various terms in the system of governing equations. Computationally, dimensionless forms have the added benefit of providing numerical scaling of the system discrete equations, thus providing a physically linked technique for improving the ill-conditioning of the system of equations. Moreover, dimensionless forms also allow us to present the solution in a compact way. Some of the important dimensionless numbers used in fluid mechanics and heat transfer are given below.
