Abstract

In this study heat transfer, velocity and temperature distributions in a horizontal ductwith rectangular cross section and an aspect ratio of 10 have been investigated underlaminar mixed convection conditions using amethod of Computational FluidDynamics (CFD). The lower surface of the duct is subjected to a uniform heat flux,sidewalls are insulated, and the upper surface is exposed to the surrounding fluid. making use of temperatures obtained from the CFD analysis, local Nusselt numberswere calculated. Local Nusselt number results were compared with experimentalresults, and it was found that they are in good agreement. Results related to thebuoyancy affected secondary flow and the onset of instability in duct flows wereexamined in detail. In addition, temperature contours as well as velocity vectordistributions inside the duct are also presented in detail. Governing equations were solved numerically and obtained solutions are comparedwith previously made experimental measurements. From an energy balance and by

Özet

Bu çalışmada yatay dikdörtgen kesitli, en/yükseklik oranı (EYO) 10 olan bir kanalda laminer karışık konveksiyon şartlarında ısı transferi ile sıcaklık ve hız dağılımlarıSayısal Akışkanlar Dinamiği (SAD) yöntemi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Kanal alt yüzeyi üniform ısı akısına maruz, yan yüzeyler yalıtımlı, kanal üst yüzeyi ise dış ortamdaki akışkana maruz bırakılmıştır. Problemi tanımlayan temel korunumdenklemleri sayısal olarak çözülmüş ve elde edilen sonuçlar, daha önce yapılmış deneysel sonuçlarla karşılaştırılmıştır. SAD analizi ile elde edilen sıcaklıkların kullanılmasıyla, yerel Nusselt sayıları hesaplanmıştır. Yerel Nusselt sayısı sonuçları,deneysel ölçümlerle karşılaştırılmış ve uyum içinde olduğu bulunmuştur. Kanal içindeki akışlarda kaldırma kuvveti etkili ikincil akış ve kararsızlığın başlangıcı ile ilgili sonuçlar ayrıntılı bir şekilde irdelenmiştir. Buna ilave olarak, kanal içindekisıcaklık ve kontur grafikleri ayrıntılı olarak sunulmuştur.
