Outline of Research at the Start

The effect of the practical surface roughness on the transition in natural convection coupled with the heat conduction inside the wall using a compressible solver is investigated. The practical heat transfer problems are always accompanied by the coupled phenomena including the transition, high temperature differences, heat convection, heat conduction, and roughness surface. Therefore, this research aims to develop a numerical framework to reveal the transition mechanism among the conjugate heat transfer (CHT), natural convection, and practical surface roughness.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements

The conjugate heat transfer (CHT) solver based on compressible flow framework which can calculate the convection in the fluid and the conduction in the solid simultaneously has been developed. However, due to the different scales of the characteristic velocities between the fluid and solid, the extremely smaller time step is inevitable. To overcome this problem, the Adaptive Time Scheme developed by authors for computational aeroacoustics is under modification to be applied to CHT problems to increase the time step to save computational time. Besides, to validate the current framework, the simulation of the natural convection and heat conduction around and in a horizontal circular pipe is studied.
