Abstract:
© 2016, Harbin Research Institute. All right reserved.The flow and heat transfer characteristics of the rotor stator cavity with circle pre-swirl nozzle structures was numerically investigated using three-dimensional Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) and SST turbulence model. The numerical drag coefficient and Nu coefficient distributions in the rotor stator cavity are well agreed with the experimental data. The reliability of the utilized numerical method is also demonstrated. Three different turbulent flow parameters and pre-swirl ratios are used to analyze the flow and heat transfer performance of the rotor stator system with circle pre-swirl nozzles. The obtained results show swirl ratio, static pressure coefficient and the heat transfer on the rotating disc increase as the turbulent flow parameter increases and vary apparently along the circumference because of the impingement of the pre-swirl flow. The drag coefficient is gradually increasing along the radial direction due to the influence of the rotary pump, and the non-uniformity along the circumferential direction at the inlet and outlet position are observed due to the inlet preswirl flow influence. The rotational disc works on the flow and increases the total temperature at the low preswirl inlet flow condition. The total temperature of the fluid is relative low at the preswirl ration obtains 1.5 due to the rotational disc does not work on the fluid and drive the fluid rotation. The inlet flow impinges into the rotational disc and results in the non-uniformity distribution of the Nu along the circumferential direction. This flow behavior leads to the high heat transfer region at the rotational disc surface.
