•Baseline disc: local hc on channel sides (mean over vane height) Channel modifications • Flow redistribution within the channel • Channel designs: (a) baseline; (b) with SV1 vane at inlet; (c)with SV1 vane in middle;(d) with SV1 vane at outlet; (e) positioning details • Average heat transfer coefficient along the channel at 800 r/min • Difference in the average heat transfer coefficient values between the new designs and the baseline disc Discussion • Mass flow through a 24osector of the disc Discussion • Average Nusselt numbers for the brake dis designs Conclusions • A relatively simple modification – the installation of an additional small vane (per channel, between the existing vanes) – demonstrated the ability to increase convective cooling from the ventilation channels. Conclusions • A radial position of these additional vanes remains crucial for achieving higher heat dissipation. Best results have been obtained with the vanes placed at the channel outlets, leading to improvement in the total convective cooling by nearly 14 per cent in comparison with the baseline design Conclusions • CFDanalyses of airflow and convective heat dissipation from a standard disc with radial vanes gave vital information regarding its weak points. Careful study of airflow within the channel was fundamental for identifying possible improvements and testing new ideas and designs 簡報結束 謝謝!
