Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: High temperature solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a high temperature and efficient hydrogen-electric conversion device. Its high temperature operating environment puts forward higher requirements for thermal insulation of stack and balance of plants(BoP) in the system. In this paper, a lumped SOFC system model is established based on the thermal efficiency-heat transfer unit number method (ε-NTU method), in combination with limited measurable parameters for high-temperature system.Quantitative analysis of components temperature and heat transfer among components can be achieved by heat exchange simulation between components and BoP hot-box environment. A simple feedback controlleris designed for system self-starting and operation. …

Abstract: Flow and heat transfer model in tee junction was established and the 3D RNG k-ε turbulence model was completed to simulate the process of mixing and capture the information of velocity and temperature. The simulation results and measured data of the mean value of velocity and temperature were analyzed and compared, and are in a good agreement, which indicates that the RNG k-ε model combined with the heat transfer model can well simulate the hydraulic characteristics and heat transfer mechanism of hot and cold fluids in a tee junction. Furthermore, the upstream segment of a tee junction has two …

Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: Zinc dross is produced inevitably as a metallurgical phenomenon of continuous hot galvanizing process, and the quality of galvanizing is affected. The phenomenon is closely related to the physical field of molten zinc and more surface defects are easily produced if the zinc dross removal process is improperly handled. By constructing a three-dimensional viscous standard k-ε two equation turbulence model, the fluid flow, heat and mass transfer law and the distribution regularities of flow vortex were obtained under the specific initial conditions and boundary conditions. The simulation results of the observation points are basically in agreement with the experimental …

Heat Transfer Simulation Of Vehicle Heat Exchanger In Plateau Environment, Xu Xiang, Wenchao Suo, Dingfu Yang, Surong Dong
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: The effect of heat transfer caused by plateau environment in vehicle heat exchanger was investigated. The heat transfer equation for heat exchanger was modified by introducing air parameters at different altitudes. A heat transfer modeling approach for vehicle heat exchanger was proposed by using the thermal network method. The heat transfer effect of the plateau and the flow state of fluid medium were analyzed in the vehicle heat exchanger by using the simulation software FlowMaster. Simulation results show that the decrease of pressure and density of air in altitude was the primary cause to heat transfer ability. …

The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of different models for calculating the mixture transport properties on flowfield predictions of ablative heat-shields. The Stardust sample return capsule at four different trajectory conditions is used as a test case for this study. In the first part of the study, the results predicted using Wilke's mixing rule with species viscosities calculated using Blottner's curve fits and species thermal conductivities determined using Eucken's relation are compared to the results obtained using Gupta's mixing rule with collision cross-section (CCS) data. The Wilke/Blottner/Eucken model overpredicts the heat transfer to the surface relative …

Re-entry of a spacecraft occurs at the hypersonic regime where the flow field is extremely complex: high temperature gradients occurring in the shock-layer region ionize and dissociate the air. Even if a large portion of heat generated during this process is convected away in the surrounding air, a fraction of it is still transferred to the vehicle. Therefore, it is important to protect the vehicle with a suitable kind of shielding. Of the many techniques available today, use of ablative material is gaining popularity. The basic idea behind an ablating heat shield is that the energy incident on the spacecraft …
Modeling Of Heat Transfer Attenuation By Ablative Gases During The Stardust Re-Entry, Alexandre Martin, Iain D. Boyd
Modeling Of Heat Transfer Attenuation By Ablative Gases During The Stardust Re-Entry, Alexandre Martin, Iain D. Boyd
Mechanical Engineering Faculty Publications
The great majority of modern space vehicles designed for planetary exploration use ablative materials to protect the payload against the high heating environment experienced during re-entry. In order to properly model and predict the aerothermal environment of the vehicle, it is imperative to account for the gases produced by ablation processes. In the case of charring ablators, where an inner resin is pyrolyzed at a relatively low temperature, the composition of the gas expelled into the boundary layer is complex and may lead to thermal chemical reactions that cannot be captured with simple flow chemistry models. In order to obtain …

Doctoral Dissertations
Heat transfer in living tissue has become more and more attention for researchers, because high thermal radiation produced by intense fire, such as wild fires, chemical fires, accidents, warfare, terrorism, etc, is often encountered in human's daily life. Living tissue is a heterogeneous organ consisting of cellular tissue and blood vessels, and heat transfer in cellular tissue and blood vessel is quite different, because the blood vessels provide channels for fast heat transfer. The metabolic heat generation, heat conduction and blood perfusion in soft tissue, convection and perfusion of the arterial-venous blood through the capillary, and interaction with the environment …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a new control structure that exploits the advantages of one degree of freedom (1-DOF) and two degree of freedom (2-DOF) control structures with an online tuned set-point regulator with blending mechanism (SPR-BM) is proposed. In this structure, the filtered output of the reference and the pure reference signals are blended so that the overall performance of the system is ameliorated with respect to load disturbance rejection and set-point following. Internal Model Control (IMC) based PI controller is used as the primary controller and the blending dynamics are determined with the aim of producing a system output that …
