خلاصه مقاله:
An unsteady two-dimensional forced convection over a square cylinder with sharp and rounded corner edge is numerically analyzed for the low Reynolds number laminar flow regime. In this study, the analysis is carried out for Reynolds number (Re) in the range of ۸۰ to ۱۸۰ with Prandtl number (Pr) variation from ۰.۰۱ to ۱۰۰۰ for various corner radius (r=۰.۵۰, ۰.۵۱, ۰.۵۴, ۰.۵۹, ۰.۶۴ and ۰.۷۱). The lateral sides of the computational domain are kept constant to maintain the blockage as ۵%. Heat transfer due to unsteady forced convection has been predicted by Artificial Neural network (ANN). The present ANN is trained by the input and output data which has been acquired from the numerical simulation, performed in finite volume based Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) commercial software FLUENT. The heat transfer characteristics over the sharp and rounded corner square cylinder are evaluated by analyzing the local Nusselt number (Nulocal), average Nusselt number (Nuavg) at various Reynolds number, Prandtl numbers and for various corner radii. It is found that the heat transfer rate of a circular cylinder can be enhanced by ۱۲% when Re is varying and ۱۴% when Prandtl number is varying by introducing a new cylinder geometry of corner radius r=۰.۵۱. It is found that the unsteady forced convection heat transfer over a cylinder can be predicted appropriately by ANN. It is also observed that the back propagation ANN can predict the heat transfer characteristics of forced convection very quickly compared to a standard CFD method.
