| Summary: | The results of numerical simulation of heat transfer to power-law fluids with variable rheology flowing in a
cylindrical tube under uniform heat flux at the wall are compared with the results of published experimental
study and an established correlation [7]. used CMC(Carboxymethylecellulose) solution and Tomato juice as
working fluids. Physical properties of tests fluids were assumed to be temperature dependant. The effect of
natural convection was checked and considered negligible. The FLUENT6.1 Package has been used for
simulation. The computational model is briefly described. In particular heat transfer coefficients obtained from the
calculated temperature profiles and compared with published for CMC solution and tomato juice flows. |
