不同尺度下相变材料熔化过程自然对流影响分析

为了解自然对流对固液相变传热的影响,采用有限容积法对重力条件下矩形腔内相变材料熔化过程进行了数值模拟。通过改变矩形腔的尺寸,分析了不同尺度对高温壁面平均Nu数(Nu数)及相变材料温度场、速度场的影响。结果表明:随着尺度增加,自然对流作用增强,Nu数逐步增大,液相区流动从稳定向周期振荡过渡,且流线越来越不规则。     

Numerical optimization of transonic natural laminar flow nacelles

Natural laminar flow nacelle is a promising technology for drag reduction. In this paper,an optimization platform is established for the design of transonic axisymmetric and threedimensional natural laminar flow nacelles for large civil aircraft. The platform adopts the class/shape transformation method for geometric parameterization, a four-equation transition model for transition prediction, and the differential evolution algorithm combined with the radial basis function surrogate model as the...     

Unsteady analysis of jet impingement under vibration conditions

The vibration of thermodynamic machinery will affect its cooling system. In this research, a high-resolution simulation of jet impingement was performed to quantify the unsteady turbulent convection under vibration conditions. A newly developed Self-Adaptive Turbulence Eddy Simulation(SATES) method was used. The Reynolds number was Re = 23000, the jet-towall distance was fixed at H/D = 2, and the vibrating frequency of the impinging wall f varied from 0 to 200 Hz. Compared with the static wall c...     

Higher-order vibration of thick composite and sandwich plates based on an alternative higher-order model

The transverse stretching vibration of thick sandwich plates, which is attributed to largely different stiffness at the adjacent layers, is a challenging issue, and efficient approach for such issue is less reported in the published literature. Thus, natural frequencies corresponding to stretching vibration modes are generally neglected in engineering design, which might impact structural safety as frequencies of the exciting force are close to transverse stretching vibration frequencies. This paper proposes an alternative higher-order model for dynamic analysis corresponding to the higher-order vibration modes. The proposed model is classified in the displacement-based equivalent single-layer theory, as the number of displacement parameters in the proposed model is independent of the layer number. The continuity of displacements and transverse shear stresses can be fulfilled at the interfaces between the adjacent layers of structures. To demonstrate the capability of the proposed model, typical examples are analyzed by utilizing the proposed model, the three-dimensional finite element method and the chosen higher-order models. By comparing with the exact three-dimensional elasticity solutions, it is found that the proposed model can yield more accurate natural frequencies corresponding to the higher-order displacement modes than the selected models. Moreover, the factors influencing reasonable prediction of the higher-order frequencies are investigated in detail, which can provide a reference for the accurate prediction of the higher-order frequencies.     

基于热电制冷的机载电子设备冷却舱内自然对流特性研究

通过实验研究和数值模拟的方法探讨了热电制冷器（Thermoelectric cooler, TEC）的排布方式对机载电子设备冷却舱内空气自然对流特性的影响。结果表明：空气遇冷后，温度降低，密度变大，并以缓慢的速度开始下沉，其运动形式由变形运动逐渐过渡到旋转运动。在舱内顶部布置TECs更有利于流场的发展，但空气下沉到冷却舱底部时易产生振荡解，出现分岔流和二次流，流动进入混沌状态。通过6种设计案例的对比分析，给出了具有最小的温度不均匀系数和最低的平均空气温度的最佳机载电子设备冷却舱内TEC排布方式。
