Discrete Heat Sources

Average heat transfer measurements have been made for discrete heat sources located under a liquid jet issuing from a rectangular slot. The heat sources were flush mounted in a plane wall of low thermal conductivity, while the jet emanated from a slot in the opposite wall. The two walls formed a plane channel which simulated a multichip module cooled by direct liquid immersion. Heaters were positioned directly below the jet, as well as at locations offset from the jet midplane. The measurements revealed a secondary peak in the heat transfer coefficient at an offset of approximately four jet widths, and the magnitude of the secondary peak increased with increasing Reynolds number. Depending on Reynolds number, the secondary peak may be due to formation of a recirculation zone and/or to boundary layer transition. The effect of separation distance between the nozzle and the impingement plate was small for the conditions of the study, as was the effect of upstream heating on heat sources located near the stagnation line of the jet. The effect of the outflow manifold location was also found to be negligible, except when it was positioned directly over a heater.

Solid Region

The primary focus of this paper is the conjugate heat transfer during vertical impingement of a two-dimensional (slot) submerged confined liquid jet using liquid ammonia as the working fluid. Numerical model for the heat transfer process has been developed. The solid region has been modeled along with the fluid region as a conjugate problem. Discrete heat sources have been used to study the overall effect on convective heat transfer. Simulation of discrete heat sources was done by introducing localized heat fluxes at various locations and their magnitudes being varied. Simulations are performed for two different substrate materials namely silicon and stainless steel. The equations solved in the liquid region included the conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and conservation of energy. In the solid region, only the energy equation, which reduced to the heat conduction equation, had to be solved. The solid-fluid interface temperature showed a strong dependence on several geometric, fluid flow, and heat transfer parameters. The Nusselt number increased with Reynolds number. For a given flow rate, a higher heat transfer coefficient was obtained with smaller slot width and lower impingement height. For a constant Reynolds number, jet impingement height and plate thickness, a wider opening of the slot provided higher average heat transfer coefficient and higher average Nusselt number. A higher average heat transfer coefficient was seen at a smaller thickness, whereas a thicker plate provided a more uniform distribution of heat transfer coefficient. Higher thermal conductivity substrates also provided a more uniform heat distribution.

Equipment used to cool horticultural produce often involves three-phase porous media. The flow field and heat transfer processes that occur in such equipment are generally quantified by means of empirical relationships amongst dimensionless groups. This work represents a first step towards the goal of harnessing the power of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to better understand the heat transfer process that occur in beds of irrigated horticultural produce. The primary objective of the present study is to use numerical predictions towards reducing energy and cooling water requirement in cooling horticultural produce. In this paper, flow and heat transfer predictions are presented of a single slot liquid jet on flat and curved surfaces using a CFD code (FLUENT) for 2-D configurations. The effects of Reynolds number, nozzle to plate spacing, nozzle width and target surface configuration have been studied. Reynolds numbers of 250, 500, 700, 1800 and 1900 are studied where the liquid medium is water. Here, the Reynolds number is defined in terms of the hydraulic nozzle diameter, inlet jet velocity and fluid kinematic viscosity. The results show that Reynolds numbers, nozzle to plate spacing and nozzle width have a significant effect on the flow filed and heat transfer characteristics; whereas the target surface configuration at stagnation area has no substantial impact. The use of a numerical tool has enabled detailed investigation of these characteristics, which have not been available in the literature previously.

Transfer Behavior

Experiments are performed to study the single-phase transient forced convection heat transfer on an array of 4×1 flush-mounted discrete heat sources in a vertical rectangular channel during the pump-on transient operation. Water is the coolant media and the flow covers the wide range of laminar flow regime with Reynolds number, based on heat source length, from 800 to 2625. The applied uniform heat flux ranges from 1 to 7W∕cm2. For flush-mounted heaters the heat transfer characteristics are studied and correlations are presented for four chips as well as for overall data in the transient regime. The experimental results indicate that the heat transfer coefficient is affected strongly by the number of chips and the Reynolds number. Finally the general impacts of heat source protrusions (B=1, 2 mm) on heat transfer behavior of four chips are investigated by comparing the results obtained from flush-mounted (B=0) heaters.

Effects of protrusions on heat transfer in a microtube and in a two-dimensional microchannel of finite wall thickness were investigated for various shapes and sizes of the protrusion. Calculations were done for incompressible flow of a Newtonian fluid with developing momentum and thermal boundary layers under uniform and discrete heating conditions. It was found that the local Nusselt number near the protrusions changes significantly with the variations of Reynolds number, height, width, and distance between protrusions, and the distribution of discrete heat sources. The results presented in the paper demonstrate that protrusions can be used advantageously for the enhancement of local heat transfer whereas the global performance may be enhanced or diminished based on the tube geometry.

This paper presents a numerical study that characterizes the conjugate heat transfer results of a semi–confined liquid jet impingement on a uniformly heated spinning solid disk of finite thickness and radius. The model covers the entire fluid region including the impinging jet on a flat circular disk and flow spreading out downstream under the confined insulated wall that ultimately gets exposed to a free surface boundary condition. The solution is made under steady state and laminar conditions. The model examines how the heat transfer is affected by adding a secondary rotational flow under semi-confined jet impingement. The study considered various standard materials, namely aluminum, copper, silver, Constantan and silicon; covering a range of flow Reynolds number (220–900), under a broad rotational rate range from 0 to 750 rpm, or Ekman number (7.08×10−5 – ∞), nozzle to target spacing (β = 0.25 – 1.0), disk thicknesses to nozzle diameter ratio (b/dn = 0.25 – 1.67), Prandtl number (1.29 – 124.44) using ammonia (NH3), water (H2O), flouroinert (FC-77) and oil (MIL-7808) as working fluids and solid to fluid thermal conductivity ratio (36.91 – 2222). High thermal conductivity plate materials maintained more uniform and lower interface temperature distributions. Higher Reynolds number increased local heat transfer coefficient reducing the interface temperature difference over the entire wall. Rotational rate increases local heat transfer coefficient under most conditions. These findings are important for the design improvement and control of semi-confined liquid jet impingement under a secondary rotation induced motion.

Radial Outflow

The local heat transfer from a small heat source to a normally impinging, axisymmetric, and submerged liquid jet, in confined and unconfined configurations, was experimentally investigated. A single jet of FC-77 issuing from a round nozzle impinged onto a square foil heater, which dissipated a constant heat flux. The nozzle and the heat source were both mounted in large round plates to ensure axisymmetric radial outflow of the spent fluid. The local surface temperature of the heat source was measured at different radial locations (r/d) from the center of the jet in fine increments. Results for the local heat transfer coefficient distribution at the heat source are presented as functions of nozzle diameter (0.79 ≤ d ≤ 6.35 mm), Reynolds number (4000 to 23,000), and nozzle-to-heat source spacing (1 ≤ Z/d ≤ 14). Secondary peaks in the local heat transfer observed at r/d ≈ 2 were more pronounced at the smaller (confined) spacings and larger nozzle diameters for a given Reynolds number, and shifted radially outward from the stagnation point as the spacing increased. The secondary-peak magnitude increased with Reynolds number, and was higher than the stagnation value in some instances. Correlations are proposed for the stagnation and average Nusselt numbers as functions of these parameters.

This paper presents the results of the numerical simulation of conjugate heat transfer during a semiconfined liquid jet impingement on a uniformly heated spinning solid disk of finite thickness and radius. This study considered various disk materials, namely, aluminum, copper, silver, Constantan, and silicon; covering a range of Reynolds number (220–900), Ekman number (7.08×10−5–∞), nozzle-to-target spacing (β=0.25–1.0), disk thicknesses to nozzle diameter ratio (b∕dn=0.25–1.67), and Prandtl number (1.29–124.44) using ammonia (NH3), water (H2O), flouroinert (FC-77), and oil (MIL-7808) as working fluids. The solid to fluid thermal conductivity ratio was 36.91–2222. A higher thermal conductivity plate material maintained a more uniform interface temperature distribution. A higher Reynolds number increased the local heat transfer coefficient. The rotational rate also increased the local heat transfer coefficient under most conditions.

Jet impingement cooling applications often involve rough surfaces, yet few studies have examined the role of wall roughness. Surface protrusions can pierce the thermal sublayer in the stagnation region and increase the heat transfer. In this paper, the effect of surface roughness on the stagnation-point heat transfer of an impinging unsubmerged liquid jet is investigated. Experiments were performed in which a fully developed turbulent water jet struck a uniformly heated rough surface. Heat transfer measurements were made for jets of diameters 4.4–9.0 mm over a Reynolds number range of 20,000–84,000. The Prandtl number was held nearly constant at 8.2–9.1. Results are presented for nine well-characterized rough surfaces with root-mean-square average roughness heights ranging from 4.7 to 28.2 μm. Measured values of the local Nusselt number for the rough plates are compared with those for a smooth wall, and increases of as much as 50 percent are observed. Heat transfer in the stagnation zone is scaled with Reynolds number and a roughness parameter. For a given roughness height and jet diameter, the minimum Reynolds number required to increase heat transfer above that of a smooth plate is established. A correlation for smooth wall heat transfer is also given.

The convective heat transfer process between the orthogonal air jet impingement on a uniformly heated flat plate is studied numerically. In this numerical study, three-dimensional (3D) simulations are carried out in Fluent 14.0 to investigate the effect of Reynolds number, distance between nozzle exit and the plate on the heat transfer characteristics. V2F turbulence model has been used to model turbulence. Standard κ–ε, Realizable κ–ε, κ–ε RNG, SST κ–ω, Standard κ–ω, V2F turbulence models have been studied for orthogonal jet impingement in this work. It is observed that for jet exit to plate distance (Z/d) of 0.5 ≤ Z/d ≤ 6, V2F model is best suited. For Z/d ≤ 0.5 and Z/d ≥ 6, numerical results vary significantly from the experimental results. Reynolds number of 12,000, 20,000, and 28,000 has been studied. In this paper, results for various jet exit to the plate distance (Z/d) from 0.5 to 10 are presented. At low jet plate spacing Z/d < 4, secondary peak in Nusselt number distribution over the plate is visible in experimental results. V2F model correctly predicts the secondary peak in Nusselt number variation over the plate. Other models fail to predict the secondary peak which is of significant importance in air jet impingement at low jet-plate spacing (Z/d < 4).
