  9. Coupled 3D fluid flow / thermal analysis Surface temperatures N2 flow rates • Thermal analysis (FEA) • Required parameters: • Material properties • Surface conductance values • Fluid flow analysis (CFD) • Required parameters: • Material properties Surface heat fluxes Boundary conditions 9/36

  10. Temperature profile • Gradient of 10oC through the lens • This validates the axisymmetric assumption 10/36

  11. Heat fluxes • Can visualize heat fluxes • Heat is drawn to the center of the assembly (inlet of cooling channels) 1/25

  35. Optical Glasses (Low Tg) • Sensitive to thermal shocks • Impossible to fix once broken • Optical glasses usually come as short rods (<20cm x 1cm) • Prone to formation of bubbles when melted and extended • Sand-blasted finish is harder to work with than smooth finish • Current and future work: • Use simpler geometries (not as accurate, requires more numerical treatment) • Develop setup to manufacture samples at controlled temperature 35/36

  36. Current and Future Work • Use simpler geometries (not as accurate, requires more numerical treatment) • Develop setup to manufacture samples at controlled temperature • Experimental validation of numerical simulation • Development of automatic numerical treatment of experimental data for extracting properties • Use PPV for better temperature control (small samples) 36/36
