Polyisocyanurate (PIR) thermal insulation boards faced with carboard, plastic, aluminum, or multilayer facings are used for thermal insulation of buildings. Facing materials are selected according to the conditions of use of PIR products. At the corners of the building where these products are joined, facings can be in the direction of the heat flux movement and significantly increase heat transfer through the linear thermal bridge formed in the connection of PIR boards with facing of both walls. Analyzing the installation of PIR thermal insulation products on the walls of a building, the structural schemes of linear thermal bridges were created, numerical calculations of the heat transfer coefficients of the linear thermal bridges were performed, and the influence of various facings on the heat transfer through the thermal bridge was evaluated. Furthermore, an experimental measurement using a heat flow meter apparatus was performed in order to confirm the results obtained by numerical calculation. This study provides more understanding concerning the necessity to evaluate the impact of different thermal conductivity facings on the heat transfer through corners of buildings insulated with PIR boards.

Prefabricated products made of polyisocyanurate (PIR) thermal insulation material covered with cardboard, plastic, aluminium or composite facings are used for thermal insulation of building envelopes. The facing of these products is selected according to their conditions of use, and the effect of the facing on the declared thermal properties of the product depend only on water vapor diffuse properties of the facing. However, at the corners of the building where these products are joined, facings can be in the direction of the heat flux movement and significantly increase heat transfer through the longitudinal thermal bridge formed in the corner of the building. After analysing the solutions for installation of PIR thermal insulation products on the walls and roof corners of buildings, calculations of the heat transfer coefficients of the linear thermal bridges were made, and the influence of various facings and different structural solutions on the heat transfer coefficient value of the thermal bridge was determined. Aluminium foil facing have the greatest influence, but other facings must also be considered. The structural solutions with the greatest increase in the heat transfer due to the effect of the facing were selected, and the influence to the thermal and air tightness properties of the structural solution when facing is removed were analysed, the stability of thermal properties of the thermal insulation material were analysed as well. Proposals for joining PIR thermal insulation products with heat-conductive facings in the corners of buildings were prepared.

AbstractThe present investigation deals with the steady three-dimensional flow and heat transfer of nanofluids due to stretching sheet in the presence of magnetic field and heat source. Three types of water based nanoparticles namely, copper (Cu), aluminium oxide (Al2O3), and titanium dioxide (TiO2) are considered in this study. The temperature dependent variable thermal conductivity and thermal radiation has been introduced in the energy equation. Using suitable similarity transformations the dimensional non-linear expressions are converted into dimensionless system and are then solved numerically by Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg scheme along with well-known shooting technique. The impact of various flow parameters on axial and transverse velocities, temperature, surface frictional coefficients and rate of heat transfer coefficients are visualized both in qualitative and quantitative manners in the vicinity of stretching sheet. The results reviled that the temperature and velocity of the fluid rise with increasing values of variable thermal conductivity parameter. Also, the temperature and normal velocity of the fluid in case of Cu-water nanoparticles is more than that of Al2O3- water nanofluid. On the other hand, the axial velocity of the fluid in case of Al2O3- water nanofluid is more than that of TiO2nanoparticles. In addition, the current outcomes are matched with the previously published consequences and initiate to be a good contract as a limiting sense.

This paper investigates the effects of gear geometry, rotational speed and applied load, as well as lubrication conditions on surface temperature of high-speed gear teeth. The analytical approach and procedure for estimating frictional heat flux and heat transfer coefficients of gear teeth in high-speed operational conditions was developed and accounts for the effect of oil mist as a cooling medium. Numerical simulations of tooth temperature based on finite element analysis were established to investigate temperature distributions and variations over a range of applied load and rotational speed, which compared well with experimental measurements. A sensitivity analysis of surface temperature to gear configuration, frictional heat flux, heat transfer coefficients, and oil and ambient temperatures was conducted and the major parameters influencing surface temperature were evaluated.

Abstract A new experimental technique has been developed that permits the determination of local surface heat transfer coefficients on surfaces without requirement for calibration of the temperature-sensing device. The technique uses the phase delay that develops between the surface temperature response and an imposed periodic surface heat flux. This phase delay is dependent upon the thermophysical properties of the model, the heat flux driving frequency and the local heat transfer coefficient. It is not a function of magnitude of the local heat flux. Since only phase differences are being measured there is no requirement to calibrate the temperature sensor, in this instance a thermochromic liquid crystal. Application of a periodic surface heat flux to a flat plate resulted in a surface colour response that was a function of time. This response was captured using a standard colour CCD camera and the phase delay angles were determined using Fourier analysis. Only the 8 bit G component of the captured RGB signal was required, there being no need to determine a Hue value. From these experimentally obtained phase delay angles it was possible to determine heat transfer coefficients that compared well with those predicted using a standard correlation.

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the forced convective boiling of refrigerant HCFC123 in a mini-tube. The inner diameters of the test tubes, D, were 0.51 mm and 0.30 mm. First, two-phase frictional pressure drops were measured under adiabatic conditions and compared with the correlations for conventional tubes. The frictional pressure drop data were lower than the correlation for conventional tubes. However, the data were qualitatively in accord with those for conventional tubes and were correlated in the form φL2−1/Xtt. Next, heat transfer coefficients were measured under the conditions of constant heat flux and compared with those for conventional tubes and for pool boiling. The heat transfer characteristics for mini-tubes were different from those for conventional tubes and quite complicated. The heat transfer coefficients for D = 0.51 mm increased with heat flux but were almost independent of mass flux. Although the heat transfer coefficients were higher than those for a conventional tube with D = 10.3 mm and for pool boiling in the low quality region, they decreased gradually with increasing quality. The heat transfer coefficients for D = 0.30 mm were higher than those for D = 0.51 mm and were almost independent of both mass flux and heat flux.

Experimental measurements of multiple nozzle submerged jet array impingement single-phase and boiling heat transfer were made using FC-72 and 1 cm square copper pin fin arrays, having equal width and spacing of 0.1 and 0.2 mm, with aspect ratios from 1 to 5. Arrays of 25 and 100 nozzles were used, with diameters of 0.25 to 1.0 mm providing nozzle area from 5 to 20 mm2 (5 to 20% of the heat source base area). Flow rates of 2.5 to 10 cm3/s (0.15 to 0.6 l/min) were studied, with nozzle velocities from 0.125 to 2 m/s. Single nozzles and smooth surfaces were also evaluated for comparison. Single-phase heat transfer coefficients (based on planform area) from 2.4 to 49.3 kW/m2 K were measured, while critical heat flux varied from 45 to 395 W/cm2. Correlations of the single-phase heat transfer coefficient and critical heat flux as functions of pin fin dimensions, number of nozzles, nozzle area and liquid flow rate are provided.

Smooth Channel

An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the effects of variations in wall thermal boundary conditions on local heat transfer coefficients in stationary and orthogonally rotating smooth wall and two opposite-wall turbulated square channels. Results were obtained for three distributions of uniform wall heat flux: asymmetric, applied to the primary wall only; symmetric, applied to two opposite walls only; and fully-symmetric, applied to all four channel walls. Measured stationary and rotating smooth channel average heat transfer coefficients at channel location L/Dh = 9.53 were not significantly sensitive to wall heat flux distributions. Trailing side heat transfer generally increased with Rotation number whereas the leading wall results showed a decreasing trend at low Rotation numbers to a minimum and then an increasing trend with further increase in Rotation number. The stationary turbulated wall heat transfer coefficients did not vary markedly with the variations in wall heat flux distributions. Rotating leading wall heat transfer decreased with Rotation number and showed little sensitivity to heat flux distributions except for the fully-symmetric heated wall case at the highest Reynolds number tested. Trailing wall heat transfer coefficients were sensitive to the thermal wall distributions generally at all Reynolds numbers tested and particularly with increasing Rotation number. While the asymmetric case showed a slight deficit in trailing wall heat transfer coefficients due to rotation, the symmetric case indicated little change whereas the fully-symmetric case exhibited an enhancement.

Stationary Heat Transfer

The effectiveness of stabilizing the surface temperature by a dispersed coolant flow is experimentally studied on a bench simulating energy intensive elements of thermonuclear installations A test section in which the maximum heat flux density can be obtained when being subjected to high-frequency heating was developed, manufactured, and assembled. The test section was heated using a VCh-60AV HF generator with a frequency of not lower than 30 kHz. A hydraulic nozzle with a conical insert was used as the dispersing device. Techniques for carrying out an experiment on studying a stationary heat transfer regime and for calculating thermophysical quantities were developed. The experimental data were obtained in the stationary heat transfer regime with the following range of coolant operating parameters: water pressure equal to 0.38 MPa, water mass flow rate equal to 5.35 ml/s, and induction heating power equal to 6--19 kW. Based on the data obtained, the removed heat flux density and the heat transfer coefficients were calculated for each stationary heat transfer regime. The dependences of the heat transfer coefficient on the removed heat flux density and of the removed heat flux density on the temperature difference have been obtained. High values of heat transfer coefficients and heat flux density at a relatively low coolant flow rate were achieved in the experiments.
