Aerodynamic heating seriously affects the safety of hypersonic vehicles, which is an urgent problem to be solved. In this work, an aerothermal phase change thermal protection system using foam structure arranged inside aircraft skin is put forward. Firstly, considering the characteristics of aircraft skin, the three-dimensional foam structures, with and without skeleton micropores, is reconstructed. Then, the effects of liquid water mass flow rate and micropores in the foam structure on heat and mass transfer in the aerothermal phase change thermal protection system are investigated. Results show that the aircraft skin temperature decreases fast and then slowly to a platform, with an increase in liquid water mass flow rate. The heat transfer in the foam structure also increases fast and then slowly to a platform, with an increase of liquid water mass flow rate, while the pressure drop for the foam structure increases linearly with an increase in liquid water mass flow rate. The comprehensive heat transfer performance of liquid water flowing along micropores is better than that of liquid water flowing without micropores and vertical to the micropores. The discovery of the above phenomenon helps design a good aerothermal phase change thermal protection system.
An ablation model considering reaction kinetics of carbon interphase in carbon/carbon composites is proposed. The proposed model also comprehensively considers the couple of the oxygen diffusion, the movement and reaction heat at the carbon-air interface, the aerodynamic heat on the ablation layer, and the heat conduction in the carbon solid. The pre-exponential factor and the apparent activation energy in the Arrhenius formula is put forward. Simulated ablation morphologies agree well with experimental results. The aerodynamic heat accelerates the formation of reaction morphology. The apparent activation energy coefficient has a greater effect on reaction morphology compared with the pre-exponential factor coefficient.
The thermal management systems or heat sinks are an integral part of electronic devices for aerospace applications. The heat transfer characteristics of the widely used phase change material (PCM)-based heat sinks under hypergravity conditions are essential in the designation of the heat sink. The current study conducts a systematic evaluation on the thermal characteristics of PCM coupled with hybrid fin-metal foam (FMF) structure under variable hypergravity conditions. A validated two-dimensional transient melting heat transfer model of the designed system is proposed, and the influences of enclosure orientation, fin height, PCM slab thickness, and the distribution of fin and metal foam under different hypergravity conditions are investigated. Results show that with the decrease in inclination angle, the melting time and the heating wall temperature become lower, and the optimal inclination angle is 0°. As the PCM slab thickness gets larger, natural convection is enhanced, while the heating wall temperature and melting time become larger. With the rise of hypergravity value, the effect of inclination angle strengthens, while the influence of PCM slab thickness weakens. Furthermore, with the rise of the copper foam fraction in the hybrid FMF structure, the melting time and the heating wall temperature firstly decrease and increase afterward. The optimal copper foam fraction is 58.62%. This study guides the optimal design of the PCM-based heat sink in aerospace applications.
Designing an accurate and efficient heat protection system for the area around the high-temperature stagnation point on supersonic aircraft is still an important topic of research. In the present study, a three-dimensional high thermal conductivity carbon/carbon (C/C) composite thermal protection system embedded with L-shaped carbon fiber bundles for directional heat transfer is proposed as a high-efficiency thermal protection design. A multi-scale method, which couples the finite volume method (FVM) and lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), is developed to investigate the directional heat transfer in the proposed structure. The FVM is used to calculate the heat radiation information, which is needed to solve the energy equation with the LBM. Further, the failure temperature of the proposed thermal protection structure is defined. The effects of the porosity, carbon fiber bundle and pore diameter on the directional heat transfer of the L-shaped C/C composite thermal protection system are investigated in detail. The results show that the effective thermal conductivity of the proposed thermal protection system increases with increasing temperature and carbon fiber bundle diameter. It decreases with increasing porosity when the temperature is below 1000 degrees C. There exists the competitive relationship between the pore heat radiation and carbon fiber bundle thermal conductivity. An increased porosity results in a decrease in the failure temperature of the proposed thermal protection structure, while increasing the carbon fiber bundle diameter can increase the failure temperature. These findings can provide some new insights for designing a high-performance C/C composite thermal protection system.
There are more and more researches on heat transfer characteristics and prediction of supercritical CO 2 .The method of adding adiabatic section before and after heating section is usually adopted in these researches to ensure that the fluid entering the heating section is no longer affected by boundary layer,but the appropriate length range of adiabatic section and the influence of entrance effect are not discussed.However,some studies show that the entrance effect would affect the heat transfer in mini tubes.This paper uses the commercial CFD code FLUENT 19.0 to numerically study the heat transfer of supercritical CO 2 in a mini tube under different working conditions(such as Re in ,P in ,q w and flow direction) and the lengths of the adiabatic section(l as /d).The entrance effects on heat transfer is more pronounced when Re in is within the transition state and wall heat flux is relatively high,the resulting heat transfer deterioration causes T w,x and h w,x to rise sharply.As the adiabatic section increases,the location at which the heat exchange deteriorates moves to the entrance of the heating section and eventually leaves.The buoyancy effect and flow acceleration effect caused by the sharp change of physical properties are analyzed,and the dimensionless velocity distribution at the inlet of the heating section in different adiabatic sections is compared.It is proved that the entrance effect has an influence on the convection heat transfer of supercritical CO 2 in mini tubes.The interaction reflected by wall shear stress between boundary layer development and drastic changes in physical properties is the cause of heat transfer deterioration.

The thermal performance of phase change materials (PCM) embedded with fins and metal foam is investigated. Plate fins are attached to the enclosure, and metal foam is embedded between adjacent fins to enhance heat transfer. To predict the melting behavior, a numerical model is established based on the enthalpy-porosity method, considering natural convection, flow resistance induced by metal foam, and non-equilibrium heat transfer. Nine cases considering various geometric parameters, heat transfer enhancement designs, and heated wall temperature are studied. Furthermore, a dimensionless theoretical model is derived to conclude the effect of combined parameters. It shows that the melting time reduces by 24.8 % as the fin height decreases from 80 mm to 50 mm, and the melting time becomes shorter with the decrease of fin thickness. However, the heat flux gets higher for higher fin height and thinner fin thickness. Moreover, the melting rate and heat flux become higher for higher fin volume fraction, lower metal foam porosity, and higher heated wall temperature. Furthermore, the theoretical model reveals that as Stefan number, fin efficiency, and the ratio of thermal diffusivity to the squared fin height become larger, the melting rate becomes higher.

The thermal performance of a flat plate latent heat storage unit (LHSU) consisting of parallel flat plate slabs of phase change material (PCM) was investigated with analytical techniques. The approximate analytical expressions of the heat transfer fluid (HTF) transient temperature distribution and the time wise solid-liquid PCM interface location were developed by solving the energy conservation equations and were validated by comparing the present results with fully converged numerical predictions and analytical solutions in published literature. An index of effective latent heat storage ratio, E-r, which was defined as the ratio of the actual amount of available latent thermal energy before HTF outlet temperature reaches a specified value to the total latent heat storage capacity, was proposed to evaluate the thermal performance of a LHSU. The effects of geometric parameters and the thermal conductivity of PCM (k(r)) on E-r were investigated. The results show that the analytical model is valid as the Stefan number is less than 0.15. Moreover, E-r increases with the rise of the given dimensionless HTF outlet temperature and the enhancement of k(p), and decreases linearly with the increase of HTF channel height and PCM slab thickness, with an abrupt change in the derivative of E-r at an inflection point. A dimensionless criterion was proposed to help design thermally efficient flat plate LHSU. Additionally, we found that increasing PCM mass by lengthening the PCM slab could significantly improve E-r, while thickening the PCM slab would lead to the opposite trend. This investigation provides guidelines for the optimal design of a flat plate LHSU.

Aiming at reliability design for electronic devices, process neural networks are proposed to predict the temperature of electronic devices. To avoid errors caused by discrete input data fitting or difference, only discrete data is used when solving orthogonal transformation coefficients. To accelerate the learning speed of the gradient descent algorithm, a parameter- independent adaptive learning algorithm is developed. The results show that this model has better accuracy and generalization ability compared with artificial neural networks and linear regression method, and the parameter-independent adaptive learning algorithm has quicker convergence rate compared with parameter-fixed algorithm and adaptive learning algorithm.
An accurate model is very important for thermal prediction and thermal management of airborne electronic module. Thermal Network Model (TNM) is the commonly used to analyze transient thermal response. It cannot describe the nonlinear or time-varying temperature process very well. In order to realize a fast thermal modeling with a relatively high accuracy, this paper proposes a modeling method based on sliding time window Random Vector Functional Link Neural Network (RVFLNN). The input and output variables of RVFLNN are determined by analyzing the heat transfer relationship of studied system. This method can rapidly realize thermal modeling without a time-consuming iterative training process. In order to overcome the variability of studied system, the sliding time window technology is specially introduced to improve the model prediction accuracy. This method is applied to analyze thermal experimental data of electronic equipment cabin. The temperature prediction performance of presented method is compared with the traditional Artificial Neural Network Model (ANNM). Comparison results show that the proposed modeling method has the advantages of fast modeling and good prediction accuracy. This study can provide an effective way to describe a complex dynamic heat transfer process adaptively and accurately, which may help the thermal control scheme design.
This study presents the optimization of the geometry of pin-fin heat sink with un-uniform fin dimensions. A procedure is presented to find the optimum geometry of pin-fin with un-uniform fin heights and widths. It is concluded that the highest temperature is lower and the temperature gradient is smaller in the optimum geometry, and the fin heights and widths near the central part of the heat sink are higher and wider than the fins at the edge. As the total volume of fins increases, the entropy generation decreases while the decreasing rate slows down.
