Heat Transfer & Periodic Flow Analysis of Heat Exchanger by CFD with Nano FluidsIJERA Editor
Many heat transfer applications such as steam generators in a boiler or air cooling coil of an air conditioner, can
be modelled in a bank of tubes containing a fluid flowing at one temperature that is immersed in a second fluid
in a cross flow at different temperature. CFD simulations are a useful tool for understanding flow and heat
transfer principles as well as for modelling these types of geometries. Both the fluids considered in the present
study are CUO Nano fluids, and flow is classified as laminar and steady with Reynolds number between 100-
600.The mass flow rate of the cross flow and diameter has been varied (such as 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30
kg/sec and 0.8, 1.0.1.2 &1.4cm) and the models are used to predict the flow and temperature fields that result
from convective heat transfer. Due to symmetry of the tube bank and the periodicity of the flow inherent in the
tube bank geometry, only a portion of the geometry will be modelled and with symmetry applied to the outer
boundaries. The inflow boundary will be redefined as a periodic zone and the outflow boundary is defined as the
shadow. The various static pressures, velocities, and temperatures obtained are reported.
In this present project tubes of different diameters and different mass flow rates are considered to examine the
optimal flow distribution. Further the problem has been subjected to effect of materials used for tubes
manufacturing on heat transfer rate. Materials considered are copper and Nickle Chromium alloys. Results
emphasize the utilization of alloys in place of copper as tube material serves better heat transfer with most
economical way.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

7. What is “Finite Element Analysis”?
• A computational method for performing analysis
of a physical system.
• A tool for simulation of the mechanical, thermal,
rheological, electronic or other response of a
system.
• Involves the division of a body into smaller
domains or “elements”.
• The applicable equations describing the physics
of the system can then be evaluated for each of
the elements.

11. Heat Transfer: I
• There are three methods of heat transfer between
two objects:
– Conduction
• Transfer of thermal energy through direct contact
• Fourier’s Law: q = kAΔT/Δx
– Convection
• Transfer of thermal energy through a fluid
• Can be free or forced
• q = hcAΔT
– Radiation
• Transfer of energy through electromagnetic radiation emitted by all objects
with temperature > 0 K (-273 C)
• Hotter objects emit more power: P = σT4
L. Halloran 12/Oct/2011
www.cryopak.com
11 www.tcpreliablegroup.com
12. Heat Transfer: II
• In thermal packaging, the primary method of
heat transfer is conduction
• Free convection by air cells in a packaging
configuration also have a significant effect
• To properly treat both mechanisms of heat
transfer, a hybrid thermal-fluid solver is
required
L. Halloran 12/Oct/2011
www.cryopak.com
12 www.tcpreliablegroup.com
14. Thermal Simulation: I
• In order for thermal simulation to be an
integral part of the design process, simulation
results must be validated.
• In thermal/flow simulation, there are multiple
user parameters and options that govern the
thermodynamics of the modelled system.
• Many of these can be measured directly,
however many must be determined through
simulated experiment
L. Halloran 12/Oct/2011
www.cryopak.com
14 www.tcpreliablegroup.com
15. Thermal Simulation: II
• Finding the correct simulation parameters and
making the appropriate geometric
approximations present the biggest challenges
in obtaining simulation results that accurately
replicate test results.
• A standard set of processes, options and
parameters has been developed leading to
acceptable simulation results for existing and
new thermal packaging designs.

19. Materials: I
• For valid simulation results, accurate values of several
physical properties of each material are required:
– Density (ρ)
– Specific heat capacity (cp)
– Thermal conductivity (k)
• For PCMs, values for these properties are required both
above and below the phase-change temperature, as well
as:
– Latent heat capacity (L)
– Phase change temperature (TPC)
• Some of these material properties exhibit a significant
variation over the temperature range of interest and
must be programmed as temperature-dependent tables.

45. Overview of Project
• A large distributor of medical products expressed
interest in a custom pallet shipper capable of
transporting a wide variety of temperature-sensitive
products for at least 48 hours.
• Customer was very concerned with volume
optimization and reusability.
• To help the customer make a more informed
decision, the effect of varying PIR wall thickness was
modelled.
• Results were obtained within 2 weeks with no
prototyping cost.
• Prototype construction and testing would be very
costly and take long to complete. Simulation allows us
to rapidly evaluate the feasibility of various designs.
The results can then be used to help us improve the
¼ view used to exploit symmetry
and decrease calculation time design.

• Increased PIR thickness has the expected effect of prolonging the period that the
payload can be transferred at its safe temperature range of 2 – 8 C.
• The trade-off for longer effectiveness is a decreased payload volume.
• By shipping products with lower initial temperatures, the period of effectiveness
can be prolonged.
• Many factors, especially the dimensions and the composition of the payload, can
affect these times.

50. Conclusions
• The results of finite element analysis have been
demonstrated and verified with existing designs.
• The use of finite element thermal analysis in the
design process presents multiple advantages to our
customers:
– Comparison of multiple design variations
– Rapid analysis of changes to designs
– Identification of susceptible locations in the pack-out
– Robust design and simulation of large or complex pack-
outs that would entail large cost or time to prototype
– Graphical output of models and results
