Convection Heat Transfer Coefficient Distribution Over the Single Rectangle Fin Surface

Rectangle fin is widely used in different kinds of heat exchangrs. Convection heat transfercoefficient distribution over the fin surface is one of the theorehcal problems in research on enhancement of heat transfer. In this paper, a tube with an attached rectangular fin is used for a model and thefin surface is divided into a network of nodes by the finite difference techinque.

Through checking with heat balance methed, the results show that the solution cancorrectly express the actual heat transfer situation.This result is useful to experimental research onenhancement of heat transfer for finned for heat exchangers.

Experimental Study of Flow and Heat Transfer in Heat Exchanger with Small Channels

The experimental study of the flow resistance and heat transfer characteristics are conducted for water and ethylene glycol solution (66% Wt) flowing in the heat exchanger with small rectangular microchannels . The heat exchanger having the channels of 0.4 mm in width, 2.0 mm in height, and 20 mm in length is heated by a hearing rod at the bottom surface, the upper and two side surfaces are adiabatic. During experiments, the Reynolds number are ranged from 2 to 2 500. The experimental results show that the flow friction factor decreases and Nusselt number increases with increasing Reynolds number for water and ethylene glycol solution. At a fixed Reynolds number, the Nusselt number for ethylene glycol solution with larger Prandtl number is greater than that for water. Meanwhile, the correlations of flow resistance and heat transfer in the heat exchanger with small channels are obtained for engineering application.

This authors uses a physical model of the rectangular channel with dimpled surface to simulate the flow and heat transfer situation. On the basis of actual flow and heat transfer in the channel, it made the interrelated hypothesizes and built up the math model. They adopted the turbulent model, appliy the algorithm to resolve the pressure-velocity coupling and use the experimental data model to check up the feasibility of the model. By the study, the thesis shows the principle of the flow and heat transfer in narrow channel with a dimple surface and gets the factors and the conditions that affect the flow and heat transfer. The results show that the geometry structure and rank distributing of dimple affect the capability of heat transfer evidently. When Reynolds number is low, the capability of heat transfer becomes better as the number increases, and when Reynolds number is bigger than a critical point, there is a little influence.
