| 1 | Study of Thermal and Hydraulic Performances of Circular and Square Ribbed Rough Microchannels Using LBM显示文摘The effects of roughness geometries and relative roughness height at the slip flow regime to investigate the thermal and hydraulic performances of microchannel have been considered in the present article using a thermal Lattice Boltzmann Method(TLBM).A two dimensional 9-bit(D2Q9)single relaxation time(SRT)model is used to simulate this problem.In micro-flows,the local density variation is still relatively small,but the total density changes,therefore,in order to account this density variation and its effect on the kinematic viscosityν,a new relaxation time proposed by Niu et al.[13]is used.The roughness geometry is modeled as a series of square and circular riblets with a relative roughness height from 0%to 10%of the channel height.The friction coefficients in terms of Poiseuille number(Pn)and the dimensionless heat transfer rate in terms of Nusselt number(Nu)have been discussed in order to analyze the roughness effects.The thermal-hydraulic performance(η)is calculated considering the simultaneous effects of thermal and fluid friction(pressure drop)at the slip flow regime at Knudsen number,Kn,ranging from 0.01 to 0.10 with other controlling parameters for both kind of geometries.The results have been compared with previous published works and it is found to be in very good agreement. | M.A.Taher H.D.Kim Y.W Lee | 2015 | Journal of Thermal Science2015，24，6： | 1 |
| 3 | Lattice Boltzmann Simulation of Magnetic Field Effect on Electrically Conducting Fluid at Inclined Angles in Rayleigh-Bénard Convection显示文摘The magneto-hydrodynamics(MHD)effect is studied at different inclined angles in Rayleigh-Bénard(RB)convection inside a rectangular enclosure using the lattice Boltzmann method(LBM).The enclosure is filled with electrically conducting fluids of different characteristics.These characteristics are defined by Prandtl number,Pr.The considered Pr values for this study are 10 and 70.The influence of other dimensionless parameters Rayleigh numbers Ra=10^(3);10^(4);10^(5);10^(6) and Hartmann numbers Ha=0,10,25,50,100,on fluid flow and heat transfer,are also investigated considering different inclined anglesφof magnetic field by analyzing computed local Nusselt numbers and average Nusselt numbers.The results of the study show the undoubted prediction capability of LBM for the current problem.The simulated results demonstrate that the augmentation in heat transfer is directly related to Ra values,but it is opposite while observing the characteristics of Ha values.However,it is also found thatφhas a significant impact on heat transfer for different fluids.Besides,isotherms are found to be always parallel to the horizontal axis at Ra=10^(3) as conduction overcomes the convection in the heat transfer,but this behaviour is not seen at Ra=10^(4) when Ha>25.Furthermore,at Ra=10^(6),oscillatory instability appears but LBM is still able to provide a complete map of this predicted behavior.An appropriate validation with previous numerical studies demonstrates the accuracy of the present approach. | T.Ahmed S.Hassan M.F.Hasan M.M.Molla M.A.Taher S.C.Saha | 2021 | Energy Engineering2021，118，1： | 0 |
