In this paper a theoretical study on conjugated heat transfer (natural convection, radiation and conduction) in a square room (cavity) with turbulent flow is presented, taking into account variation on the opaque wall emissivity. The room is formed by an isothermal vertical wall, two adiabatic horiz...

| Sumario: | In this paper a theoretical study on conjugated heat transfer (natural convection, radiation and conduction) in a square room (cavity) with turbulent flow is presented, taking into account variation on the opaque wall emissivity. The room is formed by an isothermal vertical wall, two adiabatic horizontal walls and a semitransparent wall with and without a control solar radiation film. The governing equations for turbulent flow in 2D were solved using a finite volume formulation and k-? turbulent model. Results for an isothermal wall at 21°C and an external temperature of 35°C are presented. The size of the room is 4.0 m length and height and the solar radiation falling directly on the semitransparent wall was 750 W/m2 (AM2). The emissivity of the opaque walls was varied between 0.1 ? ?* ? 1.0. Results show that, based on the air average temperature and the effective heat flux inside the room, the solar control film under study was advantageous for energy saving purposes, for emissivity values of ?* ? 0.46. A correlation on this system for the heat transfer as a function of the emissivities was determined. |
