基于计算流体力学软件(CFD)建立重力热管(TPCT)数值模型,将数值结果与实验进行对比,进而探讨加热功率和充液率对重力热管传热性能的影响.将已发展的传热传质关系式转化为相应控制方程源项,通过自定义函数(UDF)实现重力热管内部相变过程中的传热传质过程,试图建立一个包含两相流与相变过程的重力热管CFD模型.结果表明:通过CFD数值方法可较好地模拟重力热管内部复杂的流动与传热过程;在加热功率为12-60 W内,重力热管的等效对流换热系数随加热功率增大而增大;在充液率为30%-60%范围内,重力热管的等效对流传热系数均随充液率增加而减小,当充液率为30%时,重力热管换热性能较好.
A computational fluid dynamics( CFD) model for simulation of the two-phase closed thermosyphon(TPCT) were studied,and its synthetic heat transfer characteristics was discussed based on theexperiment.Through user-defined functions( UDF) to realize internal heat and mass transfer process in the process of phase change in TPCT. Through numerical simu-lation,f low and heat field'scharacteristic of inlets and different configurations were gained,and the arithmetic of aerodynamics was founded. Moreover,the following contents are included: under provided heat power 12 - 60 W and filling ratio 30 % - 60 %,heat transfer coefficient of thermosyphon increases with the heating input power increasing,while decreases with the filling rate increasing and the filling ratio with 30 % is better.
