unpublished
Heat transfer during compression of air in a long, thin tube is studied by CFD. The tube represents one of the many in a honeycomb geometry inserted in a liquid piston air compressor to minimize temperature rise. A dimensionless number for the heat flow rate that includes the changing heat transfer area between the tube wall and air during compression is used. From the CFD results, alinear relation between the inverse of this dimensionless heat flow rate and the Stanton number is found. Using
