Coupled Finite Volume And Boundary Element Analysis Of Conjugate Heat Transfer Problems

Abstract

A coupled analysis tool has been developed for solving the transient conjugate problem of heat transfer over and conduction heat transfer within a solid body. The solid body may be a turbine blade, thrust vector control vane, nozzle/combustor wall, etc. A finite volume transient Navier-Stokes solver is used to resolve the high speed turbulent compressible fluid flow body. The flow solver is capable of resolving turbulent flows using a mixing length model. The temperature field within the body is resolved by numerically solving the non-linear heat diffusion equation using a boundary element method. The boundary discretization utilized for generation of the external flow computational grid provides the boundary discretization required for the boundary element method. Thus a solution is obtained for the conjugate heat transfer problem. Numerical results have thus far shown very good agreement obtained with analytical and experimental data. An experimental effort is currently being completed to further verify the developed design tool.
