The aims of this work are to achieve a better understanding of thermal fluxes around a multi-perforated plate and obtain correlations for heat transfer coefficient on the hot as well as cold side and in a perforation. A 3-dimensional, RANS, conjugate simulation and an adiabatic one are performed for different aerothermal conditions already studied experimentally. Convective heat flux, wall temperature and adiabatic temperature are averaged on a periodic pattern around each hole. A mean heat transfer coefficient is calculated based on these quantities and correlations are deduced for this coefficient. Such results as fluid temperature rise in a perforation or the contribution of flux in the perforations to the whole cooling flux are also given in this article.
This paper deals with the application of a three-dimensional Navier-Stokes solver for the prediction of steady viscous compressible flow and heat transfer in a square channel with one rib-roughened wall. The computation results are compared with detailed experiments carried out at the von Karman Institute. The two-dimensional computations agree rather well with the experiments for the prediction of the aerodynamics, even if the recirculation length is overestimated. In this case, a k-l turbulence model seems to be sufficient. However, heat transfer between the ribs is poorly matched except when a thermal ASM (algebraic stress model) turbulence model (GGDH, or generalized gradient diffusion hypothesis), which computes the u iθ (velocity-temperature) correlations by algebraic equations, is used. The three-dimensional computations capture the correct position of the reattachment point with the k-l turbulence model. It is nevertheless necessary to use the ASM turbulence model to find vortices turning the correct way in the cross-sections. These are indeed secondary flows of the second kind which are mainly due to turbulence anisotropy when the ribs are inclined at 90° to the flow direction.
