Abstract Heat transfer from an isothermally hot flat surface due to swirling coaxial turbulent jet impingement is investigated numerically. The coaxial jet construction consists of implanting a thin-walled round tube inside a coaxial outer pipe. Two different fluid streams or jets, having different average velocities, flow through the inner tube, and the annular space between the inner tube and the outer pipe. The ratio of the average velocities of the jets, the ratio of the pipe diameters, the jet exit Reynolds number, the strength of the swirl, and the separation distance from the jet exit to the impingement surface are the main parameters for this flow configuration. The effects of the swirl strength on the jet impingement heat transfer at the target surface are investigated by computing the flow and thermal fields for various combinations of the problem parameters. The presented results contain the plots of the flow streamlines, the contours of the temperature, the contours of the swirl velocity, as well as the distribution of the local and average Nusselt number on the impingement surface. It is found that, compared to the single round jet, the coaxial jet produces enhanced and more uniform heat transfer at the heated surface. The jet-spreading and mixing are affected by the imposed jet swirl which modifies the heat transfer process. Thus, the heat transfer compared to a non-swirling jet is either enhanced or diminished depending on the combination of the problem parameters.


In this paper reports the results of investigation of heat transfer performance of in compression air jet impinging of heated surface over a flat plate & pin-fin heat sink. To mimic the computer processor of flat plate and pin fin dimensions are 120mm*75mm and pin height is 5cm and fin radius is 1cm and L/d ratios are 5,10,15respectively. By using this simulation in Ansys fluent software to perform the turbulent jet impingement on a surface. The bottom surface of the plate is supply constant heat flux and top surface of the plate is cooled by an impingement jet of air. It has two equations are used k-w model and shear stress transport to handle the turbulent jet. The result of flat plate heat sink is compare the Experimental and simulation is higher at 0.89% of experimental to compare numerical and Nusselt is higher at 3.35% of numerical to compare the experimental and heat transfer coefficient is higher at 4.51% of numerical to compare the Experimental and result of pin fin heat sink is compare the Experimental and numerical is higher at 0.23% of experimental to compare the numerical and Nusselt number is higher at 0.71% of numerical to compare the experimental and heat transfer coefficient is higher at 0.88% of numerical to compare the experimental.

An experimental investigation was performed to study the heat transfer and flow features of Cu-water nanofluids (Cu particles with 26 nm diameter) in a submerged jet impingement cooling system. Three particular nozzle-to-heated surface distances (2, 4 and 6 mm) and four particle volume fractions (1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5% and 3.0%) are involved in the experiment. The experimental results reveal that the suspended nanoparticles increase the heat transfer performance of the base liquid in the jet impingement cooling system. Within the range of experimental parameters considered, it has been found that highest surface heat transfer coefficients can be achieved using a nozzle-to-surface distance of 4 mm and the nanofluid with 3.0% particle volume fraction. In addition, the experiments show that the system pressure drop of the dilute nanofluids is almost equal to that of water under the same entrance velocity.

Abstract A series of sweeping jet-impingement experiments are conducted over a circular heated surface, with a main objective of understanding the impact of the unique flow field on the resulting heat transfer. The sweeping motion of the fluidic oscillator is influenced by the sweeping frequency and sweeping angle where each is directly dependent on the geometric design (i.e. internal feedback loops, mixing chamber, etc.). The target surface consists of a heated copper disk, where heater power is supplied to the bottom surface of the disk and adjusted until a differential of 30°C is obtained between the jet and target surface temperatures. An energy balance over the target surface temperatures provides a means for calculating area-averaged heat transfer rate, hence Nusselt number. An increase in the sweeping jet’s thermal inertia initiates an augmentation in heat transfer due to sweeping motion of the jet across the target surface. PIV data was acquired for two jet configurations, confined and unconfined, so that the recirculation behavior can be determined. The fluidic oscillator is found to improve only at a low z/d. At large z/d (greater than 4 in this study), the fluidic oscillator adversely affects the heat transfer.

Convective heat transfer from a heated flat surface due to twin oblique laminar slot-jet impingement is investigated numerically. The flow domain is confined by an adiabatic surface parallel to the heated impingement surface. The twin slot jets are located on the confining surface. The flow and geometric parameters are the jet exit Reynolds number, distance between the two jets, distance between the jet exit and the impingement surface, and the inclination angle of the jet to the impingement surface. Numerical computations are done for various combinations of these parameters, and the results are presented in terms of the streamlines and isotherms in the flow domain, the distribution of the local Nusselt number along the heated surface, and the average Nusselt number at the heated surface. It is found that the peak and the average Nusselt number on the hot surface mildly decreases and the location of the stagnation point and the peak Nusselt number gradually moves downstream as the impingement angle is decreased from 90 deg. The heat transfer distribution from the impingement surface gets more uniform as the impingement angle is reduced to 45 deg and 30 deg at lager jet-to-plate distance (4–8) with a corresponding overall heat transfer reduction of about 40% compared to the normal impinging jet case. The specified jet exit velocity profile boundary condition has considerable effect on the predicted Nusselt number around the impingement location. Fully developed jet exit velocity profile correctly predicts the Nusselt number when compared to the experimental data.

Recently, there were lots of researches about enormous CHF enhancement with the nanofluid in pool boiling and flow boiling. It is supposed the deposition of nanoparticles on the heated surface is one of main reasons. In a real application, nanofluid has a lot of problems to be used as the working fluid because of sedimentation and aggregation. The artificial surfaces on silicon and metal were developed to have the similar effect with nanoparticles deposited on the surface. The modified surface showed the enormous ability to increase CHF in pool boiling. Furthermore, under flow boiling, it had also good results to increase CHF. In these studies, we concluded that wetting ability of surface; e.g. wettability and liquid spreading ability (hydrophilic property of surface) was a key parameter to increase CHF under both pool and flow boiling. In addition, using wettability difference of surface; e.g. hydrophilic and hydrophobic, we conducted some tests of BHT (boiling heat transfer) enhancement using the oxide silicon which have micro-sized hydrophobic islands on hydrophilic surface. By using both of these techniques, we propose an optimized surface to increase both CHF and BHT. Also, the fuel surface of nuclear power plants is modified to have same effect and the results shows a good enhancement of CHF, too.
