Numerical Analysis of a Heater with Conjugate Heat Transfer

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper focuses on the influence of the conjugative heat transfer in a regenerative cooling structure. With proper numerical modelling by both finite element method and computational fluid dynamic method, the distribution of the temperature in the solid and coolant, the interfacial heat flux, and the stress state and the deformation of this cooling structure are obtained. These results show that the thermal equilibrium of the cooling structure can be achieved in a given flow condition. The present numerical method has significant benefits to solve the heat transfer between engine coolant and solid components.
