    Intensification of heat transfer of polymeric hollow fiber heat exchangers by chaotisation, Elsevier Limited
    journal article in Web of Science
    Flexible polymeric hollow fibers are used as heat transfer elements. A potted bundle of several hundred such fibers can be used as a heat exchanger in different ways. The simplest application is a submerged bundle. The fibers studied in this paper have outside diameters below 0.8 mm. Such very small-diameter polymer fibers significantly facilitate heat transfer. However, these potted sets of fibers must be designed to guarantee that all fibers are in direct contact with the surrounding stream of fluid. It is possible to use textile technologies to keep fibers strictly parallel and separated. However, a parallel arrangement can be expensive and is not flexible. A low-cost variant utilizes bundle chaotisation, which means that each fiber has a unique shape. The consequence is that their mutual mechanical contacts are point-wise. Several methods of chaotisation are studied in this paper. The best variant is a permanent fiber deformation/chaotisation of fibers using integrated heating/cooling and stretching. The tested CFPFHEs (Chaotised Flexible Polymeric Fiber Heat Exchangers) had an overall heat transfer area of 1 m2, and its length was approximately 700 mm. It achieved a water/air overall heat transfer coefficient of 100 W/m2 K with an outside air flow of 2 m/s.

    Liquid Sprays for Heat Transfer Enhancements: A Review, TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC
    journal article in Web of Science
    Sprays used for enhanced heat transfer is reviewed, starting from the spray characteristics, measurement methods, spray dynamics, to spray heat transfer. Some results for spray heat transfer at large Reynolds numbers and surface boiling are also presented, including some recent results summarizing the effects of various injection parameters. It is recommended that basic principles of heat transfer be used to integrate various effects, such as coolant and surface temperatures, water and air flow rates, and injection conditions, into a concise form so that the results can be generalized and be applied to a large range of conditions.

    Recent developments of water and mist spray cooling in continuous casting of steels, EDP Sciences
    journal article in Web of Science
    In continuous casting (CC) of steel, the water spray cooling system installed in the secondary cooling (SC) zone plays a critical role in controlling its productivity and product quality. In this paper, recent developments in spray cooling applied to the SC are reviewed and evaluated. After introducing the importance of CC in the metal industry and the significance of spray cooling in CC, the development of nozzles and cooling facilities as well as the fundamentals of spray cooling used in the SC zone are presented and discussed. The quantification of heat transfer performance of spray cooling in CC is then studied and the leading correlations developed for the heat transfer coefficient HTC related to major spray cooling parameters are selected and compared. The development of techniques for measuring the essential spray cooling parameters and HTC are also described and assessed. Finally, recommendations on future efforts for developing a better spray cooling system or correlation are provided.

    Polymeric Hollow Fiber Heat Exchanger as an Automotive Radiator, Elsevier
    journal article in Web of Science
    Nowadays, different automotive parts (tubing, covers, manifolds etc.) are made of plastics because of their superior characteristics, low weight, chemical resistance, reasonable price and several other aspects. Manufacturing technologies are already well-established and the application of plastics is proven. Following this trend, the production of compact and light all-plastic radiators seems reasonable. Two plastic heat exchangers were manufactured based on polypropylene tubes of diameter 0.6 and 0.8 mm (so-called fibers) and tested. The heat transfer performance and pressure drops were studied with hot (60 °C) ethyleneglycol-water brine flowing inside the fibers and air (20 °C) outside because these conditions are conventional for car radiator operation. It was observed that heat transfer rates (up to 10.2 kW), overall heat transfer coefficients (up to 335 W/m2K), and pressure drops are competitive to conventional aluminium finned-tube radiators. Moreover, influence of fiber diameter was studied. It was observed that air-side convective coefficients rise with a decrease of fiber diameter. Air-side pressure drops of plastic prototypes were slightly higher than of aluminium radiator but it is expected that additional optimisation will eliminate this drawback. Experimentally obtained air-side heat transfer coefficients were compared with the theoretical prediction using the Grimson equation and the Churchill and Bernstein approach. It was found that the Grimson equation is sufficient for approximate prediction of the outer HTCs and can be used for engineering calculations. Further work will concentrate on optimizing and developing a polymeric hollow fiber heat exchanger with reduced size, weight and optimized performance and pressure drops.

    Cooling electronics boxes often requires extraction of high heat fluxes from closed boxes with many heat-producing components. The direct use of ventilation is sometimes limited by demands to use hermetic units or the need to extract heat from a specific place in a large and complicated system. A liquid system introduced inside of the electronic box can be used for this purpose. Unfortunately, metallic heat exchangers have a number of shortcomings in these applications, including significant weight as well as cost and space demands. Polymeric heat exchangers consisting of hollow fibers were proposed a decade ago and can be used as an alternative in such applications. Flexible polymeric hollow fiber heat exchangers were prepared and tested in liquid / air conditions. These heat exchangers use plastic capillaries with an outer diameter of 0.5 - 0.8 mm and a wall thickness of 10% of the outer diameter. They consist of flexible fibers and can be used in narrow slots and/or in shaped channels. These heat exchangers are effective even in natural convection applications because of their high heat transfer intensity on micro-objects. Experimentally obtained overall heat-transfer coefficients in water/air applications are up to 250 W/m2 K for forced convection and up to 80 W/m2 for natural convection. The use of plastic and non-corrosive materials is advantageous in electronic systems where high heat fluxes must be extracted safely from difficult to access spaces or from hermeticallysealed boxes.
