概要: application/pdf<br />Journal Article<br />Air flows in a heater unit for automobiles are studied by flow visualization w ith tracer injection technique and the visualized images are analyzed by cross correlation method to obtain the velocity distributions in the unit at various mixdoor angles. The results indicate the variations of flow pattern in the heater unit with the mixdoor angles and the appearance of strong interaction between separated main flow and circulating heater flow at relatively large mixdoor angles, which promotes the flow mixing and simultaneously increases the pressure loss inside the unit. The flow fields in the heater unit are calculated numerically based on three dimensional momentum equations combined with κ-ε model of turbulence and with an experimental flow model of heater core. The numerical results reproduce well the experimental flow patterns in the heater unit, but there exits some deviations in the mean velocity and surface pressure distributions at large mixdoor angles. 続きを見る

概要: application/pdf<br />Journal Article<br />Flow mixing in an air conditioning unit for automobiles is studied experimentally in a water tunnel to investigate the mixing mechanisms of flow inside the unit at various mix-door angles. Flow visualization is carried out using tracer particles and the fluorescent dyes illuminated by Ar laser sheet, which allows the simultaneous measurement of velocity and diffusion distributions of the flow mixing in the unit by analyzing the captured color images. The measurement of velocity and diffusion distributions indicates enhanced flow mixing at certain mix-door angles, which is caused by the intense mixing of the main flow and the recirculating heater flow downstream of the mix-door. The temperature distribution measured in a prototype unit supports the mixing characteristics observed in the model unit, suggesting the usefulness of the present image analysis. 続きを見る
