The presence of particles causes positive enhancement of heat transfer in the case of high solid loading ratio, but heat transfer reduction has been found for in the case of very low solid loading ratio (M s of less than 0.05 kg/kg). A useful correlation incorporating solid loading ratio, particle size and flow Reynolds number was derived from experimental data. In addition, the k-ε two-equation model and the Fluctuation-Spectrum- Random-Trajectory Model (FSRT Model) are used to simulate the flow field and heat transfer of the gas-phase and the solid-phase, respectively. Through coupling of the two phases the model can predict the local and total heat transfer characteristics of tube in gas-solid cross flow. For the total heat transfer enhancement due to particles loading the model predictions agreed well with experimental data.展开更多

Therefore, an accurate evaluation of effective thermal conductivity （ETC） is a key for developing thermochemical heat storage systems. This paper focuses on the ETCs of commonly used por- ous thermochemical materials, such as MgOJMg（OH）2 and CaOJCa（OH）2 powders, as well as the corre- sponding composites with embedded metal foams. Random sphere-like particles packing （RSPP） method is proposed to reconstruct the microstructures of the powder and micro-scale generation method and computed tomography are adopted for the metal foams. Energy transport equations through porous media are solved by the lattice Boltzmann method （LBM） to obtain ETC. Results obtained using RSPP-LBM method agree with experimental data better than other existing methods. For thermochemical heat stor- age, the variation of ETC during chemical reactions is numerically predicted. Metal foam-embedded ther- rnochemical materials are also studied to evaluate the enhancing effects of the metal foams. Results show that ETC of the powders is dominated by the gas phase, whereas that of the metal foam composites is dominated by the metal Phase.展开更多
