摘要:
基于离散翅片微通道流动沸腾的多相流换热器是一种可工程化的热沉技术,可应对高热流密度的飞行器散热需求。实验研究了R134a制冷剂在4种典型离散翅片微通道中的流动沸腾换热特性。微通道的当量直径为0.67 mm,实验工况范围为:干度为0~1,质量流率为150~300 kg/(m2·s),热流密度为10~25 kW/m2。实验结果表明:微通道流动沸腾压降和传热系数随工质质量流率和热流密度的增大而提高,不同翅片之间对比结果表明:翅片形状对于压降的影响相比于传热系数更为显著,以质量流率为150 kg/(m2·s)、热流密度为10 kW/m2工况为例,方形、圆形和正弦形翅片的压降相较于菱形翅片高出约272.4%、116.9%、48.7%,平均沸腾传热系数相较于菱形翅片仅提高20.6%、11.0%、2.7%;以质量流率为300 kg/(m2·s)、热流密度为25 kW/m2工况为例,方形、圆形和正弦形翅片压降相对于菱形翅片分别增加351.1%、121.1%、94.7%,平均沸腾传热系数较于菱形翅片分别提高约24.7%、11.0%、8.8%。基于试验数据修正了离散翅片微通道流动沸腾压降和传热预测关联式,并进行不同翅片综合性能的对比分析,结果表明菱形翅片综合性能更优。
Abstract:Mini channels with micro pin fins are engineerable heat sinks that can address the high heat flux dissipation for aerospace cooling systems. An experimental investigation of R134a flow boiling heat transfer was conducted in mini channels with circular, square, diamond, and sinusoidal fins, all of which had a hydraulic diameter of 0.67 mm. The experimental parameters covered a dryness range of 0 to 1, mass flux rates ranging from 150 to 300 kg/(m2·s), and heat flux between 10 and 25 kW/m2. Results indicated that both the flow boiling pressure drop and the heat transfer coefficient in mini channels increased with higher mass flux and heat flux. A comparative analysis revealed that fin shape had a more pronounced effect on the pressure drop than on the heat transfer coefficient. e.g., when the mass flux was 150 kg/(m2·s) and the heat flux density was 10 kW/m2, the pressure drops of square, circular, and sinusoidal fins were approximately 272.4%, 116.9%, and 48.7% higher than those of diamond-shaped fins, while the average boiling heat transfer coefficients only increased by 20.6%, 11.0%, and 2.7% compared with diamond-shaped fins. When the mass flux was 300 kg/(m2·s) and the heat flux density was 25 kW/m2, the pressure drops of square, circular, and sinusoidal fins rose by 351.1%, 121.1%, and 94.7% in contrast to diamond-shaped fins, and their average boiling heat transfer coefficients went up by about 24.7%, 11.0%, and 8.8%, respectively, in relative to diamond-shaped fins. Based on the experimental test data, the prediction correlation for discrete fin microchannel flow boiling pressure drop and heat transfer was revised, and a comparative analysis of the overall performance of different fins was carried out. The results demonstrated that diamond-shaped fins had superior overall performance.
