The localization and quantification of turbomachinery rotating sound sources is an important challenge in the field of aeroacoustics. In order to compensate the motion of a rotating sound source, a rotating beamforming technique is developed and applied in a flow duct, which uses a wall-mounted microphone array placed circularly parallel to the fan, to detect the broadband noise source of the aeroengine fan. A simulation of three discrete rotating sound sources with a non-constant rotational speed is pursued to verify the effectiveness in reconstruction of the correct source positions and quantitative prediction of the source amplitudes. The technique is ulteriorly experimentally implemented at an axial low-speed fan test rig facility. The fan test rig has 19 rotor blades and 18 stator vanes, with a design speed up to 3000 rpm. The method can accurately identify the radial and circumferential positions of the three rotating sound sources in the simulation case, large side-lobes appear near the main-lobe of the sound source due to the geometric influence of the microphone array. A noticeable feature of beamforming images for axial flow fan is that the sound sources appear to be concentrated in the tip region rather than distributed along the span. Full article

Experiments on the convection heat transfer and pressure drop of supercritical carbon dioxide in a mini vertical upward flow were investigated in a smooth tube with an inner diameter of 2 mm. The experiments were conducted with pressures ranging from 7.62 to 8.44 MPa, mass fluxes ranging from 600 to 1600 kg·m−2·s−1, and heat flux ranging from 49.3 to 152.3 kW·m−2. Results show that the peak of heat transfer occurs when the bulk fluid temperature is below the proposed critical temperature and the wall temperature is above the proposed critical temperature. For the 2 mm vertical upward flow, the radial buoyancy effects are relatively weak, and the axial thermal acceleration effect cannot be negligible. In this study, a new modified Jackson correlation for the supercritical carbon dioxide is proposed for convective heat transfer. To reflect the effect of flow acceleration on heat transfer, a dimensionless heat flux was introduced to construct a new semi-correlation of heat transfer. The new correlation of friction factor taking into account the variation of density and dynamic viscosity was proposed with 146 experimental data within a ±20% error band. Full article
