Integral Analysis of Heat Transfer on Falling Laminar Liquid Film with Constant Heat Flux
Abstract:
Integral analysis of heat transfer of a laminar falling liquid film along a vertical heated plate with specified heat flux boundary condition was investigated. The temperature distribution of liquid film was obtained by utilizing an integral analysis method, which was compared with numerical solution and other researcher’s results. In this analysis a new concept of thermal changing point was put forward. It’s found that the Nusselt number has a characteristic relationship with thermal changing point, which is obtained by calculation. When the film flow distance is less than thermal changing point, the Nusselt number decreases rapidly. When the film flow distance is greater than or equal to thermal changing point, the Nusselt number reaches to a fixed value. A larger Peclet number or lower initial temperature generally leads to a larger Nusselt number in entrance region, whereas the wall heat flux is found to have no influence on the Nusselt number.
