ABSTRACT
The problem of the laminar incompressible flow and heat transfer
inside an enclosure with swirling axial throughflow has been numerically
investigated.
In general, the flow and thermal field are very complex under
the combined effects of the rotation and the throughflow rates.
The heat
transfer increases considerably with the rotational Reynolds number, except
for low throughflow rate where adverse effects may be encountered.
INTRODUCTION
Fluid flow and heat transfer within an enclosure with one or more
rotating walls and forced coolant throughflow are encountered in many
engineering applications such as in gas turbines, pumps and other rotating
devices.
Because of a broad range in sizes, geometries and operating
conditions, it is necessary to seek analytical / numerical...
