Numerical study of a vortex-induced vibration technique for passive heat transfer enhancement in internal turbulent flow. (English) Zbl 1408.74050

Summary: Due to many applications in engineering, the study of the vortex-induced vibration is of great importance. In the present study, a passive heat transfer enhancement technique for turbulent flow through the channel with constant wall temperature at \(\operatorname{Re}_D = 1000\) (based on the cylinder diameter) is studied. A flexible plate is attached to the stationary cylinder and the numerical analysis are carried out over a wide range of solid and fluid parameters such as density ratio (2.54–127), dimensionless Young’s modulus (1.1–11\(\times10^6\)), Reynolds number (300–1000), Prandtl Number (6.8 and 68), velocity and temperature profiles. As a result, although the variation of natural frequency by density and Young’s modulus of the plate alters the frequency and amplitude of oscillation, the performance evaluation criteria (PEC) number does not change. The velocity profile has a significant effect on increasing heat transfer rate and PEC number while the temperature profile only increases heat transfer without any change in the PEC number. Similar numerical analysis for the case without the flexible plate is also carried out and compared to that with a flexible plate. The results show that adding the flexible plate behind the stationary cylinder decreases the amplitude of lift coefficient by 86%, the frequency of vortex shedding by 35.8%, and the total pressure loss by 31.1%. The average Nusselt number is also improved by 2.3% and eventually, PEC increases by 23%.
