中文摘要：

为了方便而有效地模拟具有纵向外肋片的水平复合管外表面大空间自然对流换热的数值计算时计算区域外边界条件,本文提出一种新的边界条件处理方式。数值实验表明,用该条件计算的具有恒壁温的水平圆柱外表面自然对流换热数值解与文献中的基准解相比,平均Nu数的误差在0.5％以下。本文在极坐标系下,采用固体区与流体区耦合计算原始变量法,模拟计算了具有纵向外肋片的水平复合管外表面在不同肋片高度和肋片数下的自然对流换热量。数值计算表明,管外布置6个对称的肋片时,在肋片相对高度h/r04.0时,对换热最为有利,对应的肋片管平均肋效率为87.92％;而在相同肋片高度下,布置8个对称的肋片时,换热量最大。

英文摘要：

A new boundary condition in the pseudo-boundary is developed to simulate numerically the laminar naturai convection heat transfer around a horizontal compound tube with external longitudinal fins. It can be implemented easily and more efficiently to save CPU time. Numerical tests indicate that the relative errors of the average Nusselt number of the laminar naturai convection around a horizontal isothermal cylinder using this boundary condition is less than 0.5% compared with the bench mark solutions availa...
