Flow and heat transfer between the rear side of a turbocharger turbine wheel and the bearing housing
Kalugina, Marina ; Novotný, Pavel (referee) ; Vacula, Jiří (advisor)
The objective of the bachelor’s thesis is to determine the heat balance at the point between the back of the turbine wheel and the bearing housing. The findings concerning the fluid flow and heat transfer in small channels of a rotor-stator system were derived from previously published works. The main focus of this study is the heat exchange between the heated air and the rotor wall. Calculations are applied to the turbine wheel of a real turbocharger to investigate convective heat flow at different local radii. Furthermore, a thermal resistance system is implemented in the stator section to explore potential methods for improving heat dissipation.
