Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11A Numerical Study on Determination of Volume Averaged Thermal Transport Properties of Metal Foam Structures Using X-Ray Microtomography Technique(Taylor & Francis, 2018) Çelik, Hasan; Mobedi, Moghtada; Nakayama, Akira; Özkol, ÜnverVolume averaged thermal transport properties of two metal foams with 10 and 20 PPI are obtained by using microtomography technique. The digital 3D structures of samples are generated in computer environment. The governing equations are solved for the entire domain and the volume averaged technique is used to determine interfacial heat transfer coefficient, longitudinal and transverse thermal dispersion conductivity. The study is performed for the pore scale Reynolds number from 100 to 600. The obtained results are within the ranges of the suggested correlations in literature. The present study supports the correlations suggested by Calmidi and Mahajan (2000) and Zhang et al. (2016).Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6A Study on Numerical Determination of Permeability and Inetia Coefficient of Aluminum Foam Using X-Ray Microtomography Techniques: Focus on Inspection Methods for Reliability (permeability and Inertia Coefficient by Tomography)(Begell House, 2019) Mobedi, Moghtada; Nakayama, Akira; Özkol, Ünver; Çelik, HasanThe volume-averaged (i.e., macroscopic) transport properties such as permeability and inertia coefficient of two aluminum foams with 10 and 20 pores per inch (PPI) pore density are found using microtomography images. It is shown that a comparison between the numerical values and the experimental results may not be sufficient to prove the correctness of the obtained results. Hence, in addition to traditional validation methods such as grid independency and comparison with reported results in literature, further inspections such as (a) checking the development of flow, (b) inspection of Darcy and non-Darcy regions, (c) conservation of flow rate through the porous media, (d) sufficiency of number of voxels in the narrow throats, and (e) observation of transverse velocity gradients in pores for high and low Reynolds numbers can be performed to further validate the achieved results. These techniques have been discussed and explained in detail for the performed study. Moreover, the obtained permeability and inertia coefficient values are compared with 19 reported theoretical, numerical, and experimental studies. The maximum deviation between the present results and the reported studies for 10 PPI is below 25%, while for 20 PPI it is below 28%.Conference Object Computational Determination of Volume Averaged Transport Properties of Heat and Fluid Flow in Porous Media by Using Microtomography Images(Begell House, 2017) Çelik, Hasan; Mobedi, Moghtada; Nakayama, Akira; Özkol, ÜnverIn this study, the theory and techniques for obtaining VAM (Volume Average Theory) transport properties of a porous medium from micro-tomography images are described. The validation of the results with reported experimental or numerical values in literature may not be sufficient, hence a comprehensive attention is paid to the techniques that can be used for verification of the obtained numerical results at each step of this long computational process. The suggested verification techniques are categorized and explained in details. © 2017, Begell House Inc.

An air layer partially occupied by slanted circular rods of high-thermal conductivity was considered to derive the general expression. The thermal conductivity based on this general expression was compared against that obtained from detailed three-dimensional numerical calculations. A good agreement between two sets of results substantiates the validity of the general expression for evaluating the stagnant thermal conductivity of the periodic structures. Subsequently, this expression was averaged over a hemispherical solid angle to estimate the stagnant thermal conductivity for stochastic structures such as a metal foam. The resulting expression was found identical to the one obtained by Hsu et al., Krishnan et al., and Yang and Nakayama. Thus, the general expression can be used for both stochastic and periodic structures.
