摘要 The Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger(PCHE) is one of the most promising heat exchangers for Synergetic Air-breathing and Rocket Engine(SABRE). To reduce pressure drop and improve compactness, the micron-sized PCHE made up of rectangular channels of tens of microns in size, is used in SABRE. In present work, we focus on thermal-hydraulic-structural characteristics of micron-sized PCHE by conducting three-dimensional(3-D) numerical simulation. Helium and hydrogen are employed as the working fluids and the Stainless Steel 316(SS316) as the solid substrate. The thermal-hydraulic performance of the micron-sized PCHE is discussed by using the commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) software of Fluent. ANSYSMechanical is also employed to simulate stress field of representative PCHE channels. The mechanical stress induced by pressure loading and the thermal stress induced by temperature gradient are found to be equally important sources of stress. To improve comprehensive performances of micron-sized PCHE, two types of channel arrangements and different channel aspect ratios are studied. The double banking is of higher thermal-hydraulic performance compared to the single banking while the stress performance is identical for the two modes. Meanwhile, the effect of channel aspect ratio is investigated by comparing thermal-hydraulic characteristics and structural stress of the model. The rectangular channel with w/h=2 achieves the most balanced stress characteristic and higher thermal-hydraulic performance.
