Stanton number, mean temperature and mean velocity profiles, and turbulence intensity profiles were measured along the accelerated region. The tests were conducted with favorable pressure gradients denoted by values of the acceleration dU -6 6 - parameter K( = -) of 2.0 x 10 and 2.5 x 10 . The %2dx blowing fraction, F( = PoV.PpU 0 ), ranged from 0.0 to 0.004. The flow was incompressible (U,max = 86 fps) with a moderate temperature difference, 25 F, across the boundary layer. One objective of the program was to obtain detailed heat transfer data in strong accelerations, to both increase understanding in this area and to provide a base for future prediction procedures. A second, and equally important, objective was to determine whether or not relaminarization of the boundary layer occurs at K = 2.5 x 1076 . The experimental results demonstrate that the Stanton number, as a function of enthalpy thickness Reynolds number, falls increasingly below the behavior observed in unaccelerated flows as K is increased, with or without blowing. The profile traverses show that, at the end of acceleration, the boundary layer is still fully turbulent. Further heat transfer results are presented which il­ lustrate the effects of various conditions at the start of acceleration (notably the thicknesses of the thermal and hydrodynamic layers); step-changes in blowing within the accelerated region; and an increase in the free-stream turbulence intensity. The experimental results reported here, as well as data taken by other experimenters at lower values of K , have iv been used to calculate the distribution of turbulent Prandtl number across the boundary layer. These calculations suggest­ that a correlation of turbulent Prandtl number which is use­ ful for flow over a flat plate is equally valid in accelerated flows. Using a numerical solution of the appropriate boundary layer equations, the experimental results are predicted with reasonable accuracy, including the effects of various initial conditions and free-stream turbulence intensities. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Acknowledgments .......... ............... iii Abstract.............. .... .... ... iv Table of Contents............... ..... vi List of Figures................ ..... viii List of Tables xi Nomenclature xii Chapter One.

  • Chapter 5 Dimensional Analysis and Similarity
    Chapter 5 Dimensional Analysis and Similarity Motivation. In this chapter we discuss the planning, presentation, and interpretation of experimental data. We shall try to convince you that such data are best presented in dimensionless form. Experiments which might result in tables of output, or even mul- tiple volumes of tables, might be reduced to a single set of curves—or even a single curve—when suitably nondimensionalized. The technique for doing this is dimensional analysis. Chapter 3 presented gross control-volume balances of mass, momentum, and en- ergy which led to estimates of global parameters: mass flow, force, torque, total heat transfer. Chapter 4 presented infinitesimal balances which led to the basic partial dif- ferential equations of fluid flow and some particular solutions. These two chapters cov- ered analytical techniques, which are limited to fairly simple geometries and well- defined boundary conditions. Probably one-third of fluid-flow problems can be attacked in this analytical or theoretical manner. The other two-thirds of all fluid problems are too complex, both geometrically and physically, to be solved analytically. They must be tested by experiment. Their behav- ior is reported as experimental data. Such data are much more useful if they are ex- pressed in compact, economic form. Graphs are especially useful, since tabulated data cannot be absorbed, nor can the trends and rates of change be observed, by most en- gineering eyes. These are the motivations for dimensional analysis. The technique is traditional in fluid mechanics and is useful in all engineering and physical sciences, with notable uses also seen in the biological and social sciences.

  • Summary of Dimensionless Numbers of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer 1. Nusselt Number Average Nusselt Number: Nul = Convective
    Jingwei Zhu http://jingweizhu.weebly.com/course-note.html Summary of Dimensionless Numbers of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer 1. Nusselt number Average Nusselt number: convective heat transfer ℎ퐿 Nu = = L conductive heat transfer 푘 where L is the characteristic length, k is the thermal conductivity of the fluid, h is the convective heat transfer coefficient of the fluid. Selection of the characteristic length should be in the direction of growth (or thickness) of the boundary layer; some examples of characteristic length are: the outer diameter of a cylinder in (external) cross flow (perpendicular to the cylinder axis), the length of a vertical plate undergoing natural convection, or the diameter of a sphere. For complex shapes, the length may be defined as the volume of the fluid body divided by the surface area. The thermal conductivity of the fluid is typically (but not always) evaluated at the film temperature, which for engineering purposes may be calculated as the mean-average of the bulk fluid temperature T∞ and wall surface temperature Tw. Local Nusselt number: hxx Nu = x k The length x is defined to be the distance from the surface boundary to the local point of interest. 2. Prandtl number The Prandtl number Pr is a dimensionless number, named after the German physicist Ludwig Prandtl, defined as the ratio of momentum diffusivity (kinematic viscosity) to thermal diffusivity. That is, the Prandtl number is given as: viscous diffusion rate ν Cpμ Pr = = = thermal diffusion rate α k where: ν: kinematic viscosity, ν = μ/ρ, (SI units : m²/s) k α: thermal diffusivity, α = , (SI units : m²/s) ρCp μ: dynamic viscosity, (SI units : Pa ∗ s = N ∗ s/m²) W k: thermal conductivity, (SI units : ) m∗K J C : specific heat, (SI units : ) p kg∗K ρ: density, (SI units : kg/m³).

    A Similarity Analysis for Heat Transfer in Newtonian and Power Law Fluids Using the Instantaneous Wall Shear Stress Trinh, Khanh Tuoc [email protected] B.H.P. Wilkinson [email protected] Institute of Food Nutrition and Human Health Massey University, New Zealand N.K.Kiaka [email protected] Department of Applied sciences The Papua New Guinea University of technology Abstract This paper presents a technique that collapses existing experimental data of heat transfer in pipe flow of Newtonian and power law fluids into a single master curve. It also discusses the theoretical basis of heat, mass and momentum analogies and the implications of the present analysis to visualisations of turbulence. Key words: Heat transfer, transition, turbulence, Newtonian, power law, instantaneous wall shear stress, similarity plot 1 Introduction The study of heat and mass transfer has been dominated from an early stage by the similar form of the equations of heat, mass and momentum. Following Boussinesq (1877), the transport flux (e.g. of heat) can be defined in terms of an eddy viscosity d q k E (1) h dy where is the temperature y the normal distance from the wall k the thermal conductivity Eh the eddy thermal diffusivity q the rate of heat transfer flux the fluid density Equation (1) may be rearranged as y q q w dy (2) E 0 1 h k which is very similar to the equation for momentum transport y U w dy (3) E 0 1 Where U U u* , y yu* yu* and Cp w u* q w have been normalised with the friction velocity u* w and the fluid apparent viscosity .

Both their sources are considered: dimensional analysis and scaling of governing equations with boundary con- ditions. The numbers produced by scaling of equation are presented for transport of momentum, heat and mass. Momentum transport is considered in both single-phase and multi-phase flows. The numbers obtained are assigned the physical meaning, and their mutual relations are highlighted.

The governing equations are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformation and then solved numerically using bvp4c solver with MATLAB Package. The effects of governing parameters on dimensionless quantities like velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, wall heat flux and wall deposition flux are discussed for both suction and injection cases. Results are presented graphically and through tables. Keywords: Magnetohydrodynamics, Thermophresis, Radiation, Dissipation, Heat source. 1. Introduction Thermophoresis has potential applications like air cleaning, aerosol particles sampling, nuclear reactor safety, micro electronics manufacturing etc. Thermophoresis describes the migration of suspended small micron sized particles in a non isothermal gas to the direction with decreasing thermal gradient and the velocity acquired by the particle is known as thermophoretic velocity. The detailed discussion about this study was given by (Derjaguin and Yalamov, 1965). Thermophoresis of aerosol particles in laminar boundary layer on flat plate was analyzed by (Goren, 1977). Thermophoretic hydromagnetic flow over radiate isothermal inclined plate by considering heat source was discussed by (Noor et.al, 2013).

Nickol, M.S. Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Professor Randall M. Mathison, Advisor Professor Michael G. Dunn, Co-Advisor Professor Sandip Mazumder Professor Jeffrey P. Bons Copyright by Jeremy B Nickol 2016 ABSTRACT An experiment was performed at The Ohio State University Gas Turbine Laboratory for a film-cooled high-pressure turbine stage operating at design-corrected conditions, with variable rotor and aft purge cooling flow rates. Several distinct experimental programs are combined into one experiment and their results are presented. Pressure and temperature measurements in the internal cooling passages that feed the airfoil film cooling are used as boundary conditions in a model that calculates cooling flow rates and blowing ratio out of each individual film cooling hole. The cooling holes on the suction side choke at even the lowest levels of film cooling, ejecting more than twice the coolant as the holes on the pressure side. However, the blowing ratios are very close due to the freestream massflux on the suction side also being almost twice as great. The highest local blowing ratios actually occur close to the airfoil stagnation point as a result of the low freestream massflux conditions. The choking of suction side cooling holes also results in the majority of any additional coolant added to the blade flowing out through the leading edge and pressure side rows.

Initial ef- forts were made to implement a turbulent kinetic energy diffusion model in FLUENT but due to unavailability of the source code the focus was shifted to OpenFOAM, an open-source CFD software. Effect of initial values of free-stream parameters is studied on a flat plate. Launder- Sharma model is modified to account for the effect of free-stream turbulence and length scale by incorporating variable cµ and an additional diffusion term in turbulent kinetic energy trans- port equation. Comprehensive study is carried for better predictions of skin friction coefficient, Stanton number and turbulent kinetic energy profile on a flat plate for different initial turbulent intensities of 1%, 6.53% and 25.7%. The new model is validated for its better performance on a flat plate to predict Stanton number, skin friction coefficient and turbulent kinetic energy profile with close match to the data points.

Holloway, James R. Sterrett, and Helen S. Creekmore LEtngley Research Center An extensive systematic investigation of the heat transfer associated wlth 1 regions of laminar, transitional, and turbulent separation has been conducted on sharp- and blunt-leading-edge flat plates at a Mach number of 6.0 over a free-stream unit Reynolds number range of approximately 1 x lo6 to 8 x lo6 per foot. Separated regions were forced by forward- and rearward-facing steps, and by loo, 20°, 30°, and 40° wedges located in several longitudinal positions on the plate. It has been shown that upon proper classification of the several types of separated flow, the trends of the heating rates within the regions of separa- tion may be characterized by typical distributions which are essentially inde- pendent of the model geometry (except to the extent that the model-geometry variations affect the location of transition).

  • Fluid Numbers
    Fluid Numbers Dimensieloze Navier-Stokes “ ” Froude “ ” “For a ship, the Froude number is defined as: where v is the velocity of the ship, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and L is the length of the ship at the water line level, or Lwl in some notations. It is an important parameter with respect to the ship's drag, or resistance, including the wave making resistance. Note that the Froude number used for ships, by convention, is the square root of the Froude number as defined above.” pag 1 Euler “ ” Reynolds “Reynolds number can be defined for a number of different situations where a fluid is in relative motion to a surface. These definitions generally include the fluid properties of density and viscosity, plus a velocity and a characteristic length or characteristic dimension. This dimension is a matter of convention – for example a radius or diameter are equally valid for spheres or circles, but one is chosen by convention. For aircraft or ships, the length or width can be used. For flow in a pipe or a sphere moving in a fluid the internal diameter is generally used today. Other shapes such as rectangular pipes or non-spherical objects have an equivalent diameter defined. For fluids of variable density such as compressible gases or fluids of variable viscosity such as non-Newtonian fluids, special rules apply. The velocity may also be a matter of convention in some circumstances, notably stirred vessels. The inertial forces, which characterize how much a particular fluid resists any change in motion are not to be confused with inertial forces defined in the classical way.” Invloed van de stromingstoestand: Stroming in leiding onder druk Stroming met vrij oppervlak Stroming rond een lichaam pag 2 Weber “ ” “The Weber number is a dimensionless number in fluid mechanics that is often useful in analysing fluid flows where there is an interface between two different fluids, especially for multiphase flows with strongly curved surfaces.
