Abstract

The present paper focuses on the analysis of transient heat transfer and flow in a vibratory tube. The characteristics of flow and heat transfer are investigated by dynamic mesh of CFD (computational fluid dynamics) software FLUENT, the velocity and temperature distributions in a vibration cycle are analyzed by field synergy theory. The results indicate that the vibration parameters have great effect on heat transfer, and the tube vibration leads to heat transfer enhancement or reduction. Moreover, the optimum heat transfer performance inside tubes is obtained in a half-cycle when time phase is 90°.
