Abstract

A vibrating blade was arranged in a channel to enhance heat transfer. The effects of the frequency and amplitude of the blade on the heat transfer characteristics were numerically researched. The phase space reconstruction and maximum Lyapunov index were used to analyze the transition path and degree of chaos. The results show that the vibrating blade can generate chaos; thus, the heat transfer is enhanced. The convective heat transfer performance is positively correlated with the degree of chaos. In addition, when the frequency is 10 Hz, and the inlet velocity is 0.5 m s −1 , the heat transfer can be improved by 16%. When the maximum amplitude of the blade is 8 mm and the inlet velocity is 0.8 m s −1 , the heat transfer can be improved by 15%.
