Separation of the Heat Transfer Components for Diffusion Flames Impinging onto CeilingsWasson, Rachel Ann 21 October 2014 (has links)
Two series of experiments were performed to determine the flow characteristics and to quantify the heat transfer components from a propane diffusion flame impinging onto a ceiling. A 0.3 m square sand burner with propane as the fuel type provided a steady-state fire. In the first series of experiments, measurements of gas temperature and velocity were made at 76 mm vertical intervals above the burner up to the ceiling. Fire heat release rates (HRRs) of 50 kW and 90 kW with free flame length to ceiling height ratios, Lf/H, of 2, 1.5, 1, 0.8, 0.85 were used to determine their effects on the measured parameters. Gas temperatures within the continuous flaming region were relatively constant, and measured to be independent of ceiling height and HRR, while velocities increased with elevation and were independent of ceiling height yet weakly dependent on HRR. Within the intermittent region, gas temperature was weakly affected by the presence of the ceiling at various heights, while the effect on velocity was more pronounced. HRR had an effect on both temperature and velocity within the intermittent region of the fire plume. Comparisons with existing fire plume correlations showed that the unbounded correlations can be used to provide a good approximation of the gas temperature for the ceiling bounded case; while the correlations for the velocity can only be used for elevations up to approximately 60% of the ceiling height. Elevations above this cutoff were significantly affected by the presence of the ceiling.
The second series of experiments investigated HRRs of 50 kW and 90 kW with free flame length to ceiling height ratios, Lf/H, of 2, 1.5, and 1. Heat flux and gas temperature at the stagnation point of the ceiling were measured using hybrid heat flux gauges and an aspirated Type K thermocouple. Four methods of calculating the convective heat transfer coefficient, h, were developed and adapted; two reference methods and two slope methods. The components of heat transfer at the impingement point were separated using these calculated h values. The reference method 2, and both slope methods only required the use of the non-cooled hybrid gauge measurements and were in overall good agreement with one another. The reference method 1 differed significantly, being up to 15.8 times lower than the others. The trends in the two groups were contradictory, with the h calculated using the reference method 1 increasing with ceiling height while the others showed no strong trend with ceiling height. The disagreements between the methods greatly affected the components of heat transfer, particularly at the lowest ceiling heights. Convection calculated using the h from reference method 1 contributed only 2-5% of the total exposure heat flux at the lowest ceiling heights, whereas with the other methods convection contributed 20-50% of the total exposure heat flux. The limitations of each method are discussed. Further investigation is required for all methods to determine their applicability within the flaming region of a fire. / Master of Science

Heat Transfer Characterization in Jet Flames Impinging on Flat PlatesVirk, Akashdeep Singh 21 June 2015 (has links)
The experimental work involves calculation of radial distribution of heat transfer coefficient at the surface of a flat Aluminium plate being impinged by a turbulent flame jet. Heat transfer coefficient distribution at the surface is computed from the measured heat flux and temperature data using a reference method and a slope method. The heat transfer coefficient (h) has a nearly bell shaped radial distribution at the plate surface for H/d =3.3. The value of h drops by 37 % from r/d =0 to r/d= 2. Upon increasing the axial distance to H/d = 5, the stagnation point h decreased by 15%. Adiabatic surface temperature (AST) distribution at the plate surface was computed from the measured heat flux and temperature. AST values were found to be lower than the measured gas temperature values at the stagnation point. Radial distribution of gas temperature at the surface was estimated by least squares linear curve fitting through the convection dominated region of net heat flux data and was validated by experimental measurements with an aspirated thermocouple. For low axial distances (H/d =3.3), the gas temperature dropped by only 15 % from r/d = 0 to r/d = 2. Total heat flux distribution is separated into radiative and convective components with the use of calculated heat transfer coefficient and estimated gas temperatures. At H/d = 3.3, the radiation was found to be less than 25 % of the net heat flux for r/d ≤ 2. / Master of Science

High frequency gas temperature and surface heat flux measurementsIliopoulou, Vasiliki 14 September 2005 (has links)
Further improvements of the thermal efficiency of gas turbine cycle are closely coupled to the increase of turbine inlet temperature. This requires intensive and efficient cooling of the blades. In this perspective, experimental investigations of the gas temperature and heat transfer distribution around the airfoil are of primary importance.
The present work aims at the development of two measurement techniques based on applications of the thin film sensors: the two-layer gauge for the wall heat transfer determination and the dual thin film probe for flow temperature measurements. Both techniques are used in short duration tunnels of the von Karman Institute (VKI) under engine representative conditions and are able to resolve both time-averaged component and time-resolved component i.e. periodic blade passing events at ~5-7 kHz with harmonics up to 50 kHz.
In order to derive the wall heat flux with the two-layer gauge, the unsteady conduction equation is solved in the two-layer substrate using the measured value of the wall temperature as a boundary condition. The gauges are extensively calibrated and the data reduction method is validated on a blade of the second stator of the VKI turbine. A very good repeatability is achieved. Measurements are also performed on the complex geometry of a blade tip in a cascade configuration revealing the high three dimensionality of the flow.
The dual thin film probe combines the operation of two thin films and determines the flow temperature from two independent heat flux measurements. The probe is calibrated and then validated with measurements downstream a cascade. The robustness and the reliability of the probe are also demonstrated by measurements downstream of the rotor and the second stator of the VKI turbine.

Concept study - lower exhaust gas temperature in Scania buses / Konceptstudie – Sänka avgastemperaturen i Scanias bussarJansson, Birk, Jarsäter, Mikael January 2013 (has links)
The thesis aims to lower the exhaust gas temperature on the coming EU6 Scania buses D7 and Otto gas and is carried out as a final part of the studies in the mechanical engineering program, KTH Stockholm. Euro 6, a new emission standard requirements for heavy duty trucks and buses, puts new demands on the amount of particulate matter and nitrogen oxides that can be emitted. This led to that Scania has developed and improved their after treatment systems. The new after treatment systems generates high exhaust temperatures, and Scania have expressed a desire to reduce these to create a safer environment around the bus.The thesis started with a thorough feasibility study, where the current exhaust systems and its components were studied. Solutions to lower exhaust temperatures were studied, both in the automotive industry and in other fields. The concepts that were developed would be analyzed through CFD simulations, why basic fluid mechanics were studied. Two different exhaust systems were to be analyzed, one with a gas engine and roof outlet and one with a diesel engine and ground outlet. A total of eight concepts were presented, in which five were determined to undergo CFD simulations.A competitor analysis was conducted in which three different diffusers from competing bus and truck manufacturers were CFD simulated.The results showed that the diffusers were superior to the other concepts. The diffuser designed in this project performed well in comparison to the diffusers from competing bus and trucks manufacturers, but it was considered to be expensive and difficult to manufacture. New diffuser designs were suggested, which are believed to have the same good qualities but cheaper to manufacture. The authors recommend Scania to perform field tests of the redesigned diffusers, and also try the ones designed by their competitors. Also, Scania should investigate how a venturi solution can be optimized. / Examensarbetet, vars mål är att sänka avgastemperaturen på Scanias bussar, är genomfört som en avslutande del av studierna på maskinkonstruktionsprogrammet, KTH Stockholm. EuroVI, en ny emissionskravsstandard för tunga fordon, ställer nya krav på hur mycket partiklar och kväveoxider som får släppas ut. Detta har resulterat i att Scania har utvecklat och förbättrat sina efterbehandlingssystem. De nya efterbehandlingssystemen ger upphov till höga avgastemperaturer, och Scania har uttryckt en önskan att sänka dessa för att skapa en säker miljö runt bussen.Examensarbetet började med en grundlig förstudie, där de aktuella avgassystemen och dess komponenter studerades. Lösningar för att sänka avgastemperaturer studerades, både inom fordonsindustrin och inom andra områden. Eftersom koncepten som togs fram skulle analyseras med CFD simuleringar, så studerades även grundläggande strömningsmekanik. Två olika avgassystem skulle analyseras, ett med en gasmotor och takutsläpp, och ett med en dieselmotor och markutsläpp. Totalt togs åtta koncept fram, varav fem ansågs intressanta för CFD simulering. Det gjordes även en konkurrentanalys, där tre olika diffusorer från konkurrerande buss- och lastbilstillverkare CFD simulerades.Resultaten visade att diffusorerna var överlägsna de andra koncepten. Diffusorn som utformats i detta projekt stod sig väl mot konkurrenternas diffusorer, men ansågs dock vara dyr och svår att tillverka. Nya designer togs fram, som anses ha samma temperatursänkande egenskaper men vara enklare att tillverka. Författarna till denna rapport rekommenderar Scania att gå vidare med fysiska tester av de förslagna diffusorerna, och att även testa konkurrenternas diffusorer. Scania bör även undersöka hur en venturilösning kan optimeras.

A Passive Mid-infrared Sensor to Measure Real-time Particle Emissivity and Gas Temperature in Coal-fired Boilers and Steelmaking FurnacesRego Barcena, Salvador 01 August 2008 (has links)
A novel technique for measuring gas temperature and spectral particle emissivity in high-temperature gas-particle streams is presented. The main application of this optical sensor is to improve the process control of batch unit operations, such as steelmaking furnaces. The spectral emission profile of CO and CO2 and the continuous particle emission in the 3.5 to 5 μm wavelength region was recorded and analyzed in real time with a low-resolution passive sensor. The sensor consisted of light collecting optics, a dispersion element (grating spectrometer) and a 64-pixel pyroelectric array. Wavelength and radiance calibrations were performed. The temperature of the gas-particle medium (Tg+p) followed from the least-squares minimization of the difference between the measured radiance in the 4.56-4.7 μm region –which saturates due to the large CO2 concentrations and path lengths in industrial furnaces– and the corresponding blackbody radiance. Particle emissivity (εp) was calculated at 3.95 μm from an asymptotic approximation of the Radiative Transfer Equation that yields the emerging radiance from a semi-infinite particle cloud. The major source of error in the magnitude of Tg+p and εp could come from particle scattering. Through the method of embedded invariance an expression was developed to estimate the lowering effect of particle size and volume fraction on the saturation of the 4.56-4.7 μm CO2 emission region. An iterative procedure for correcting the values of the gas-particle temperature and particle emissivity was applied to the datasets from the two industrial tests. Results from the measurement campaigns with the infrared sensor prototype at two full-scale furnaces are presented. A proof-of-concept test at a coal-fired boiler for electricity production was followed by more extensive measurements at a Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF) for steelmaking. The second test provided temperature and particle emissivity profiles for eight heats, which highlighted the simplicity of the technique in obtaining in-situ measurements for modeling studies. Through the analysis of the particle emissivity profile in the BOF and the definition of a new variable –the minimum carbon time– a novel end-point strategy to stop the injection of high-purity oxygen during low-carbon heats in BOF converters was proposed.

Diagnostics spectroscopiques de plasmas d'argon à la pression atmosphérique en présence d'espèces réactivesDurocher-Jean, Antoine 03 1900 (has links)
Les travaux réalisés dans le cadre de cette thèse de doctorat caractérisent de manière cohérente la physique des plasmas d'argon à la pression atmosphérique en présence d'espèces réactives. Ces travaux sont motivés par les lacunes manifestes de la compréhension des plasmas froids à la pression atmosphérique, celles-ci étant en grande partie dues au nombre restreint de techniques de diagnostic permettant de les caractériser. Dans ce contexte, des diagnostics optiques permettant l'obtention des propriétés fondamentales (température du gaz et des électrons, densité d'états excités) sont d'abord développés et validés tant pour les plasmas microonde que pour les décharges à barrière diélectriques d'argon à la pression atmosphérique. En particulier, une méthode couplant des mesures d'émission optique des transitions 2p-1s de l'argon à un modèle collisionnel-radiatif décrivant la population des niveaux émetteurs 2p permettant d'obtenir la température des électrons est présentée, de même qu'un moyen d'obtenir la température du gaz à l'aide de mesures d'élargissement spectral de raies et la densité d'états métastables de l'argon à l'aide de mesures de spectroscopie d'absorption par diode laser accordable en longueur d'onde. Par la suite, ces diagnostics optiques sont employés pour étudier l'influence de l'ajout de gaz diatomiques dans un plasma microonde, mettant en évidence l'efficacité avec laquelle ils en viennent à dominer la cinétique de la décharge en absorbant la majorité de la puissance fournie au plasma. Une comparaison entre le bilan de puissance des électrons qu'ils permettent de calculer à celui d'un diagnostic électrique est également effectué dans le cas d'une décharge à barrière diélectrique d'argon en présence de précurseurs d'anhydrides. Finalement, les propriétés fondamentales de deux conffgurations de jets de plasmas s'écoulant dans l'air ambiant, l'une radiofréquence, l'autre microonde, sont également examinées. Dans le premier cas, les effets de l'air ambiant sur ces propriétés sont mis de l'avant, alors que dans le second cas, la position d'injection du précurseur organosilicié HMDSO dans le jet de plasma est évaluée pour le dépôt de revêtements fonctionnels sur des substrats de verre. Ces derniers travaux révèlent l'obtention d'un revêtement antibuée dans des conditions opératoires spécifiques, un résultat fort prometteur pour l'industrie du verre. / The research done in this Ph.D. thesis consistently characterizes the physics of argon plasmas at atmospheric pressure in the presence of reactive species. This work is motivated by the obvious deficiencies in the understanding of cold plasmas at atmospheric pressure, which are largely due to the limited number of diagnostic techniques used to characterize them. In this context, optical diagnostics allowing the obtaining of fundamental properties (gas and electron temperature, number density of excited species) are first developed and validated in a microwave argon plasma as well as in a dielectric barrier discharge in argon at atmospheric pressure. In particular, a method coupling optical emission measurements of argon 2p-1s transitions to collisional-radiative modelling of the emitting 2p levels is presented in order to get the electron temperature, as well as a means to obtain the gas temperature by the spectral broadening of emission lines and the number density of argon metastable states from tunable laser diode absorption spectroscopy measurements. Subsequently, these optical diagnostics are used to study the influence adding diatomic gases in microwave argon plasmas, highlighting the efficiency with which they start dominating the discharge kinetics by absorbing most of the supplied power. A comparison between the electron power balance calculated from such optical diagnostics to that obtained from electrical diagnostics is also made in the case of an argon-based dielectric barrier discharge with anhydride precursors. Finally, the fundamental properties of two plasmas jet configurations (one radiofrequency, the other microwave) expanding in ambient air are also examined. In the first case, the effects of ambient air on these properties are featured, while in the second case, the injection position of the organosilicon precursor HMDSO in the plasma jet is studied for the deposition of functionnal coatings on glass substrates. The latter reveals the obtaining of an antifog coating under specific operating conditions, a very promising result for the glass industry.

Analyse de la température du gaz dans les plasmas de haute fréquence à la pression atmosphérique par spectroscopie à très haute résolution spectraleLabelle, Francis 08 1900 (has links)
Le présent mémoire de maîtrise est consacré à une étude spectroscopique de la température du gaz dans les plasmas hors équilibre thermodynamique d’argon à la pression atmosphérique. Nous avons notamment pu extraire, à l’aide de mesures par spectroscopie optique d’émission de structures rotationnelles des systèmes OH (A2Σ+- X2Πi) et N2+ (B2Σu+- X2Σg+), la température rotationnelle d’un plasma radiofréquence en régime capacitif et d’un plasma micro-onde produit par une onde électromagnétique de surface. En comparant ces mesures à celles obtenues par l’analyse de l’élargissement des raies 2p2-1s2 et 2p3-1s2 de l’argon avec un spectromètre à très haute résolution spectrale, nous avons pu démontrer que l’équilibre rotation-translation (Trot=Tg) n’est jamais atteint dans les configurations de plasmas étudiées. Cet écart entre les deux températures est attribué à l’influence des électrons, en compétition avec les atomes neutres, imposant leurs propres températures sur la distribution des niveaux rotationnels. De plus, l’effet du flux de gaz et de l’ajout de CO2 sur le chauffage du gaz a été étudié dans un plasma micro-onde d’argon à la pression atmosphérique. Nous avons noté des changements importants dans les profils axiaux de Tg en amont et en aval de l’excitateur à onde de surface selon les conditions opératoires. Pour séparer les facteurs gouvernant le chauffage du gaz à ceux associés au dépôt de puissance par l’onde électromagnétique, nous avons normalisé nos valeurs de Tg aux intensités des émissions de l’argon liées aux transitions 2p-1s entre 700 et 900 nm. Pour des temps de résidence dans le plasma d’argon suffisamment longs (et donc de faibles débits de gaz), les valeurs de Tg normalisées montrent un comportement assez constant, ce qui indique que le chauffage s’effectue principalement de manière locale. Au contraire, pour des temps plus longs (et donc des débits de gaz plus importants), les valeurs de Tg normalisées augmentent le long de la colonne à plasma, ce qui révèle que les phénomènes de transport commencent à jouer un rôle important. On note aussi un changement de comportement à plus hauts débits de gaz dû au passage d’un régime d’écoulement laminaire à un régime turbulent. En présence de CO2, dû aux mécanismes de chauffage additionnels, les valeurs de Tg normalisées sont systématiquement plus élevées. / The present master thesis is devoted to a spectroscopic study of the gas temperature in non-thermodynamic equilibrium argon plasmas at atmospheric pressure. In particular, we were able to extract, by means of optical emission spectroscopy measurements of rotational structures of the systems OH (A2Σ+- X2Πi) and N2+ (B2Σu+- X2Σg+), the rotational temperature of a radiofrequency plasma in capacitive mode and of a microwave plasma produced by an electromagnetic surface wave. By comparing these measurements with those obtained by the analysis of line broadening from 2p2-1s2 et 2p3-1s2 of argon with an ultrahigh spectral resolution spectrometer, we were able to demonstrate that the rotational-translational equilibrium (Trot=Tg) is never achieved in the plasma configurations studied. The departure from both temperatures is ascribed to the influence of electrons competing with neutrals to impose their own temperature on the distribution of rotational levels. In addition, the effect of gas flow and addition of CO2 admixtures on the gas heating has been studied in a microwave argon plasma at atmospheric pressure. We noted significant changes in the axial profiles of Tg on the upstream and downstream plasma column according to operating conditions. To separate the factors governing the heating of gas from those associated with the deposition of power by the electromagnetic wave, we have normalized our Tg values to the intensities of the argon emissions linked to the transitions 2p-1s between 700 and 900 nm. For long enough gas residence times in the argon plasma (and therefore low gas flow rates), normalized Tg values show a fairly constant behaviour, which indicates that the heating takes place mainly locally. On the contrary, for longer times (and therefore higher gas flow rates), normalized Tg values increases along the plasma column, which reveals that transport phenomena are starting to play an important role. There is also a change in behaviour at higher gas flow rates due to the change from a laminar flow regime to a turbulent regime. In the presence of CO2 admixtures, due to additional heating mechanisms, normalized Tg values are consistently higher.
