Abstract

In this study, heat transfer in the case of a helical turbulator inserted in a copper tube with 18 mm hydraulic diameter is investigated numerically. The water is taken as the working fluid (Pr=2,45). Reynolds number is chosen 1000-20.000. It is considered the boiling condition at the outher surface of the pipe. The pipe length and wall thickness are considered 250 and 1 mm, respectively. Three different number of turns (5, 10 and 20) were accepted. The governing equations are solved using Simple algoritm and Realizable kmodel for turbulent regime. The Nusselt number calculated by numerical study and existing correlations in literature are compared each other depending on Reynolds number for the three different geometry. In conclusion; it has been seen that, in the case of laminar flow, the pipe with helical turbulator increases the heat transfer more than the straight pipe, whereas in the case of turbulent flow, it isn’t productive in terms of thermodynamics.

Özet

Bu çalışamada, 18 mm çaplı bakır bir borunun içine sıkı geçme olarak konulan helisel bir türbülatörün ısı geçişine etkisi saysal olarak incelenmiştir. Çalışma akışkanı su kabul edilmiştir (Pr=2,45). Reynolds sayısı 1000-20.000 aralığında alınmıştır. Dış ortamda kaynama olduğu kabul edilmiştir. Boru boyu ve et kalınlığı sırasıyla 250 ve 1 mm’ dir. Üç farklı sarım sayısı (5, 10 ve 20) kabul edilmiştir. Korunum denklemleri Simple algoritmasõ ve türbülanslı akış modeli olarak Realizable k3 modeli kullanılarak çözülmüştür. Üç farklı geometri için sayısal olarak bulunan Nusselt değerleri, Reynolds Sayısına bağlı olarak kaynaklardaki mevcut bağlantılardan elde edilen değerlerle karşılaştırılmıştır. Sonuç olarak; helisel türbülatörlü boruların laminer akışta düz boruya göre ısı geçişini arttırdığı türbülanslı akışta ise termodinamik açıdan verimli olmadığı görülmüştür.
