Thermodynamique Résumé : Bidisperse porous medium (BDPM) consists of a macroporous medium whose solid phase is replaced with a microporous medium. This study investigates using numerical simulations, steady natural convection inside a square BDPM enclosure made from uniformly spaced, disconnected square porous blocks that form the microporous medium. The side walls are subjected to differential heating, while the top and bottom ones are kept adiabatic. The bidispersion effect is generated by varying the number of blocks (N2), macropore volume fraction (phiE), and internal Darcy number (DaI) for several enclosure Rayleigh numbers (Ra). Their effect on the BDPM heat transfer (Nu) is investigated. When Ra is fixed, the Nu increases with an increase in both DaI and DaE. At low Ra values, Nu is strongly affected by both DaI and phiE. When N2 is fixed, at high Ra values, the porous blocks in the core region have negligible effect on the Nu. A correlation is proposed to evaluate the heat transfer from the BDPM enclosure, Nu, as a function of Raphi, DaE, DaI, and N2. It predicts the numerical results of Nu within ±15% and ±9% in two successive ranges of modified Rayleigh number, RaphiDaE.

Resonance of natural convection inside a bidisperse porous medium enclosure / Arunn Narasimhan in Journal of heat transfer, Vol. 133 N° 4 (Avril 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of heat transfer > Vol. 133 N° 4 (Avril 2011) . - pp. [042601/1-9] Titre : Resonance of natural convection inside a bidisperse porous medium enclosure Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Arunn Narasimhan, Auteur ; B. V. K. Reddy, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. [042601/1-9] Note générale : Physique Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Natural convection Resonance Bidisperse Monodisperse Porous media Numerical simulations Scale analysis Index. décimale : 536 Chaleur. Thermodynamique Résumé : An enclosure filled with blocks made of a microscale porous medium, separated by macrosize pores, can be treated as a bidisperse porous medium (BDPM) enclosure. This study investigates natural convection resonance inside such a BDPM enclosure subjected to time-periodic heat flux at a side wall, with the opposite wall kept isothermal while the top and bottom walls are adiabatic. The BDPM enclosure is made from uniformly spaced, disconnected, square, porous blocks that form the microporous medium saturated with a fluid of Pr=0.7. For Rayleigh numbers, Ra=108 and 107, the pulsating wall heat flux is varied over a frequency range of 0.01[infinity]). Predictions of fr using a modified scale analysis incorporating BDPM effects agree well with that arrived by numerical methods.
