Download or read book Theory of Periodic Conjugate Heat Transfer written by Yuri B. Zudin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-24 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original method of investigation of the conjugate conductive-convective problem of periodic heat transfer is developed. The novelty of the approach is that a particular conjugate problem is replaced by a general boundary-value problem for the heat conduction equation in the solid. Within the framework of the hyperbolic model of thermal conductivity, the effect of self-reinforcement of the degree of conjugation by increasing the period of oscillations is found. The processes of hydrodynamics and heat exchange with periodic internal structure are considered: periodic model of turbulent heat transfer, hydrodynamic instability, bubbles dynamics in liquid, and model of evaporating meniscus. The book is intended as a source and reference work for researchers and graduate students interested in the field of conjugate heat transfer.

Download or read book Thermal Transport in Low Dimensions written by Stefano Lepri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding non-equilibrium properties of classical and quantum many-particle systems is one of the goals of contemporary statistical mechanics. Besides its own interest for the theoretical foundations of irreversible thermodynamics(e.g. of the Fourier's law of heat conduction), this topic is also relevant to develop innovative ideas for nanoscale thermal management with possible future applications to nanotechnologies and effective energetic resources. The first part of the volume (Chapters 1-6) describes the basic models, the phenomenology and the various theoretical approaches to understand heat transport in low-dimensional lattices (1D e 2D). The methods described will include equilibrium and nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, hydrodynamic and kinetic approaches and the solution of stochastic models. The second part (Chapters 7-10) deals with applications to nano and microscale heat transfer, as for instance phononic transport in carbon-based nanomaterials, including the prominent case of nanotubes and graphene. Possible future developments on heat flow control and thermoelectric energy conversion will be outlined. This volume aims at being the first step for graduate students and researchers entering the field as well as a reference for the community of scientists that, from different backgrounds (theoretical physics, mathematics, material sciences and engineering), has grown in the recent years around those themes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid growth of modern economy and the increasingly high quality of human life over the last century are essentially attributed to the development of energy technologies, including the conversion, transport, storage, and utilization of energy. The transfer of thermal energy plays an instrumental role in virtually all energy related technologies. As such, exploring the fundamentals of heat transfer is of significant importance for both scientific advancement and technological development. Each of the basic heat transfer modes is governed by different length scales, understanding and engineering of which thus underpin the development of heat transfer technologies. In this dissertation, quantification and engineering of characteristic lengths in two different heat transfer mechanisms, namely, phase change heat transfer (PCHT) and radiation heat transfer, are studied. Liquid-vapor PCHT utilizes latent heat of vaporization to efficiently transport a large amount of thermal energy, which is being used in a variety of thermal energy conversion and management applications. The critical heat flux (CHF) of PCHT, either evaporation or boiling, is fundamentally limited by mass flux of the vapor departing from the liquid-vapor interface, known as the kinetic limit. This limit could be in theory greater than 1 kW cm2 on a planar surface, but its experimental realization has remained elusive. In the first part of this dissertation, by leveraging the small length scale for heat conduction and vapor bubble departure within a thin liquid film, a new "thin film boiling" mechanism is proposed and realized by confining the boiling liquid within a microscale film on a nanoporous membrane. Superior heat transfer performance is demonstrated with a high CHF of over 1.8 kW cm-2, which is among the highest reported values for PCHT on a planar surface and is within a factor of four of the calculated theoretical kinetic limit. Furthermore, by continuously shrinking the liquid film, a universal transition from boiling to evaporation is further identified for different fluids with varying surface tension values (water, ethanol, isopropanol, and perfluorohexane), and the heat transfer characteristics of the transition points are found to be close to the kinetic limit. The limiting factors dictating the transition between the two different heat transfer modes are also elucidated. In advanced materials for high temperature thermal transport such as thermal barrier coatings for turbine blades and heat transfer media in concentrated solar power plants, the radiative thermal transport, which is often negligible at room temperature, becomes comparable to or even more important than heat conduction. However, an effective thermal conductivity encompassing both heat transfer modes is often used at high temperatures, due to the lack of a convenient methodology to separate the contributions from conduction and radiation, especially for high temperature thermal measurement using the prevailing instrument called the laser flash analyzer (LFA). In particular, the characteristic length scale of radiation heat transfer is often elusive. In the second part of this dissertation, a transient coupled conduction/radiation model, with the realistic boundary conditions used in the LFA, is developed to study the transient heat transfer in high temperature materials. By identifying the propagation length of photons in different portions of the spectrum, heat transfer due to photons with direct transmission and diffusive transport is delineated. In the conductive thermal conductivity of semi-transparent materials obtained from the LFA, conventional models would still cause non-negligible error at high temperatures, while the coupled model developed here can accurately quantify the radiative contribution.
