Abstract

The invention relates to a simulation method for a plate-fin heat exchanger, and the method comprises the steps: S1, selecting a periodic repetitive microstructure in the heat exchanger, and carryingout the mesh generation of the microstructure; s2, simulating the microstructure by using different simulation conditions and corresponding fluid flow models to obtain unit length pressure drop and fin surface heat flux density under each simulation condition; s3, respectively constructing functions of the unit length pressure drop and the fin surface heat flux density relative to simulation conditions by utilizing a numerical fitting method; and based on the written Fluent UDF program, simulating the heat exchanger model under the required working condition to obtain the total pressure drop and the heat exchange amount of the inlet and the outlet. According to the invention, the influence of changes of fluid flow rates and temperatures in different heat dissipation flow channels on pressure drop and heat transfer is comprehensively considered, and compared with experimental data of a plurality of plate-fin heat exchangers, the simulation result has higher precision.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of performance prediction of plate-fin heat exchangers, in particular to a simulation method for plate-fin heat exchangers. Background technique [0002] Plate-fin heat exchangers are widely used in power machinery, chemical industry, energy and other fields, so the development of heat exchangers with excellent performance is conducive to energy saving and environmental protection. In the engineering research and development stage, when the CAD model of the heat exchanger is designed, it is always hoped to obtain data such as its resistance and total heat transfer before manufacturing, which is beneficial to know in advance whether the designed heat exchanger meets the performance requirements. Traditionally, some experimental correlations are always used for estimation, but such methods have large errors especially for heat exchangers with new structures. [0003] In recent years, the rapid development of ...
