Heat Transfer To The Inclined Trailing Wall Of An Open Cavity, Orval A. Powell
Heat Transfer To The Inclined Trailing Wall Of An Open Cavity, Orval A. Powell
Theses and Dissertations
Experimental and computational heat transfer investigations were performed on a cavity with an inclined trailing wall (20-degrees to the horizontal), simulating one under investigation for use in a scramjet engine. Heat transfer data are reported in the form of Stanton number obtained using a curve fit to the recorded transient surface temperature history under cold flow conditions. Ascending from the reattachment point, the Stanton number increased by nearly 50% due to flow compression. This effect of flow compression was also evident at the junction of the cavity floor and inclined trailing wall, where the Stanton number also increased by 50%. …
Effects Of Liquid Transpiration Cooling On Heat Transfer To The Diverging Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Daniel J. Schieb
Effects Of Liquid Transpiration Cooling On Heat Transfer To The Diverging Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Daniel J. Schieb
Theses and Dissertations
This research effort investigated the effects of evaporation of water on the heat transferred to the wall of the diverging portion of a porous walled nozzle The AFIT High Pressure Shock Tube was used with a two-dimensional Mach 3 nozzle. One flat surface of the nozzle was fitted with a layer of porous stainless steel from the nozzle throat to the exit. This porous material was saturated with water to simulate liquid transpiration cooling. Surface temperature data was taken in this region using fast response coaxial thermocouple. Heat transfer was determined from the surface temperature history. Data was taken for …
Numerical Analysis Of Two And Three Dimensional Recessed Flame Holders For Scramjet Applications, Douglas L. Davis
Numerical Analysis Of Two And Three Dimensional Recessed Flame Holders For Scramjet Applications, Douglas L. Davis
Theses and Dissertations
This study investigated the flame holding properties of recessed cavities in supersonic flow using numerical analysis techniques. A simplified analytical model indicated that an important property for flame holding was the lower residence time. Several chemical kinetic rate models for hydrogen and hydrocarbon combustion were compared. The perfectly stirred reactor model also indicated that trace species diffusion should increase flame spreading rate, and that heat loss reduces flame holding limits. After nonreacting calibration, two-dimensional simulations confirmed the perfectly stirred reactor results for blowout limits. Also, the effect of trace species diffusion on flame spreading was shown to be negligible, and …
An Investigation Of The Characteristics Of Regenerative Heat Exchangers, Timothy J. Murphy
An Investigation Of The Characteristics Of Regenerative Heat Exchangers, Timothy J. Murphy
Theses and Dissertations
The objective of the current research was to investigate the effects of reducing screen thickness on the volume and compactness factor of stacked, wire-screen regenerators. An improved transient step-change method was devised which integrated experimental data with a numerical model of the flow to determine the heat transfer coefficient and friction factor. The improvements to the approach are: (1) the measured inlet temperature trace is used, (2) the heat transfer coefficient is based on a parameter called the sponge effect delay time, and (3) the important effect of the tube surrounding the matrix is included in the numerical model. The …
Effects Of Blowing Ratios On Heat Transfer To The Throat Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Fu-Jung Chen
Effects Of Blowing Ratios On Heat Transfer To The Throat Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Fu-Jung Chen
Theses and Dissertations
The effects of transpiration cooling on heat transfer in the throat region of a porous-walled nozzle were investigated. The experiments were performed in the AFIT low speed shock tube fitted with a Mach 2 nozzle. A blowing region was limited to the area from 1.3 cm prior to the throat to 1.2 cm downstream of the throat. The blowing ratios from -0.0002 (suction) to 0.0117 (blowing) of the main stream flow were studied. Heat flux data were taken from both sides of the nozzle. One side was transpiration cooled by secondary air injection through a porous wall, while the other …
Effects Of Blowing Ratio On Heat Transfer To The Throat Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Joseph L. Lenertz
Effects Of Blowing Ratio On Heat Transfer To The Throat Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Joseph L. Lenertz
Theses and Dissertations
This experiment analyzed the effects of blowing ratio on heat transfer to the throat region of a porous-walled nozzle, using the AFIT low speed shock tube. Heat flux data were taken from both sides of a two-dimensional Mach 2.0 Re-m=5.2x107 nozzle using thin film resistance thermometers. One side was transpiration-cooled by secondary air injection through a sintered wall, while the other side served as a control. Control results were validated using empirical relations, and cooled side results showed up to a 14% reduction in heat transfer coefficient at blowing ratios of only 0.51%. The linear nature of cooling effectiveness …
