The Difference

Convective heat transfer was measured for a heated axisymmetric air jet impinging on a flat surface. It was found that the local heat transfer coefficient does not depend explicitly upon the temperature mismatch between the jet fluid and the ambient fluid if the convection coefficient is defined in terms of the difference between the local recovery temperature and target surface temperature. In fact, profiles of local heat transfer coefficients defined in this manner were found to be identical to those measured for isothermal impinging jets.

Heat Transfer Coefficients

Local and average convective heat transfer coefficients were measured for arrays of widely spaced impinging air jets and correlated in terms of system geometry, air flow, and fluid properties. The configurations were square arrays of circular turbulent jets (spaced from 10–25 diameters apart) incident upon a flat isothermal target surface. Independent parameters were varied over ranges generally corresponding to gas turbine cooling applications. Local heat transfer coefficients were influenced by interference from neighboring jets only when the target plate and the jet orifice plate were less than five jet diameters apart. Average heat transfer coefficients were nearly equal for all the arrays tested as long as the coolant flow per unit area of target surface was held constant. In fact, there was a tendency for the more widely spaced configurations to produce slightly higher average heat transfer under such conditions.

Abstract Measurements of the local heat transfer distribution on smooth and roughened surfaces under an array of angled impinging jets are presented. The test rig is designed to simulate impingement with cross-flow in one direction which is a common method for cooling gas turbine components such as the combustion liner. Jet angle is varied between 30, 60, and 90 degrees as measured from the impingement surface, which is either smooth or randomly roughened. Liquid crystal video thermography is used to capture surface temperature data at five different jet Reynolds numbers ranging between 15,000 and 35,000. The effect of jet angle, Reynolds number, gap, and surface roughness on heat transfer efficiency and pressure loss is determined along with the various interactions among these parameters. Peak heat transfer coefficients for the range of Reynolds number from 15,000 to 35,000 are highest for orthogonal jets impinging on roughened surface; peak Nu values for this configuration ranged from 88 to 165 depending on Reynolds number. The ratio of peak to average Nu is lowest for 30-degree jets impinging on roughened surfaces. It is often desirable to minimize this ratio in order to decrease thermal gradients, which could lead to thermal fatigue. High thermal stress can significantly reduce the useful life of engineering components and machinery. Peak heat transfer coefficients decay in the cross-flow direction by close to 24% over a dimensionless length of 20. The decrease of spanwise average Nu in the crossflow direction is lowest for the case of 30-degree jets impinging on a roughened surface where the decrease was less than 3%. The decrease is greatest for 30-degree jet impingement on a smooth surface where the stagnation point Nu decreased by more than 23% for some Reynolds numbers.

Abstract A numerical and experimental investigation on cooling of a solid surface was performed by studying the behavior of an impinging jet onto a fixed flat target. The local heat transfer coefficient distributions on a plate with a constant heat flux were computationally investigated with a normally impinging axisymmetric jet for nozzle diameter of 4.6mm at H/d = 4 and 10, with the Reynolds numbers of 10,000 and 40,000. The two-dimensional cylindrical Navier-Stokes equations were solved using a two-equation k-ε turbulence model. The finite-volume differencing scheme was used to solve the thermal and flow fields. The predicted heat transfer coefficients were compared with experimental measurements. A universal function based on the wave equation was developed and applied to the heat transfer model to improve calculated local heat transfer coefficients for short nozzle-to-plate distance (H/d = 4). The differences between H/d = 4 and 10 due to the correlation among heat transfer coefficient, kinetic energy and pressure were investigated for the impingement region. Predictions by the present model show good agreement with the experimental data.

Short Period

An experimental investigation has been performed to study the effect of flow intermittency on convective heat transfer to a planar water jet impinging on a constant heat flux surface. Enhanced heat transfer was achieved by periodically restarting an impinging flow and thereby forcing renewal of the hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers. Although convective heat transfer was less effective during a short period when flow was interrupted, high heat transfer rates, which immediately follow initial wetting, prevailed above a threshold frequency, and a net enhancement occurred. Experiments with intermittent flows yielded enhancements in convective heat transfer coefficients of nearly a factor of two, and theoretical considerations suggest that higher enhancements can be achieved by increasing the frequency of the intermittency. Enhancements need not result in an increased pressure drop within a flow system, since flow interruptions can be induced beyond a nozzle exit. Experimental results are presented for both the steady and intermittent impinging jets at distances up to seven jet widths from the stagnation line. A theoretical model of the transient boundary layer response is used to reveal parameters that govern the measured enhancements. A useful correlation is also provided of local heat transfer results for steadily impinging jets.

The Difference

Measurements of the local heat transfer coefficients on a pin fin (i.e., a short cylinder in crossflow) in a duct have been made using two methods, both of which employ liquid crystals to map an isotherm on the surface. The transient method uses the liquid crystal to determine the transient response of the surface temperature to a change in the fluid temperature. The local heat transfer coefficient is determined from the surface response time and the thermal properties of the substrate. The heated-coating method uses an electrically heated coating (vacuum-deposited gold in this case) to provide a uniform heat flux, while the liquid crystal is used to locate an isotherm on the surface. The two methods compare well, especially the value obtained near the center stagnation point of the pin fin where the difference in the thermal boundary condition of the two methods has little effect. They are close but differ somewhat in other regions.

Measurements of average convective heat transfer are reported for square arrays of impinging air jets. The target plate on which the jets impinge is perforated so that spent air is withdrawn through the plate rather than at one or more edges of the array, as is usually the case in such investigations. Jet holes and vent holes had the same diameters, but the spacing of the jet holes was twice that of the vent holes. This information is especially relevent to the design of hybrid cooling configurations, in which a surface is cooled by the combined mechanisms of impingement and transpiration. Tests were conducted for both inline arrangements (with a vent hole opposite each jet orifice) and for staggered arrangements; and the latter always yielded higher average heat transfer. The degradation of performance of inline arrays was most pronounced when the clearance between the jet orifice plate and the target plate was small. Under these conditions, a significant portion of each jet flows directly out through the opposing vent without “scrubbing” the target surface. Arrays with staggered vent holes yield heat transfer rates consistently higher (sometimes by as much as 35 percent) than the same jet array with edge venting. The authors attribute the superior performance of the former geometry to high local heat transfer due to boundary layer suction in the vicinities of the vent holes.

Impingement heat transfer coefficients are presented for a row of holes impinging into an oval cavity with the spent air leaving through holes on one or both sides of the cavity. The distribution around the cavity surface is obtained and is correlated with a survey of the recent literature. In addition, local heat flux gages were used with an impingement jet air supply which could be changed in location along the axis of the test section. This permitted the determination of local heat transfer coefficient distribution over the surface both around the cavity and also in the region between the impinging jets. This two-dimensional distribution is shown to be influenced by the bleed geometry and the shape of the impinging jet holes.

Local heat transfer from a flat plate to a pair of circular air impinging jets is investigated numerically. A pair of impinging jets from fully-developed pipe flows are used for the numerical simulations. The Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations(RANS) and energy equation are solved for the three dimensional flow. Eddy-viscocity based turbulence models, RNG k-epsilon and V2F models, are used. Hybrid meshes are used for the three dimensional flows and mesh independent solutions are obtained. The flow Reynolds number, which is based on the jet diameter, is kept at 23,000. In the analysis, local heat transfer coefficients are obtained for the jet-to-plate distance, L/D, ranging from 2 to 10 and the jet-to-jet spacing, S/D, in the range of 1.75 to 7.0. Both local and average heat transfer coefficients are evaluated and compared with available experimental data under same flow conditions. The effect of using different turbulence models in the numerical analysis is evaluated and the selection of proper turbulence models under such a flow condition is suggested.

Experimental and computational studies are performed to study pressure and temperature distributions and flow patterns on impingement target surface subject to a single impinging air jet from a plenum. The experiments cover a range of jet-to- target plate distance, Z/D, from 1.5 to 12 for Reynolds number range from 5000 to 60000. The main objective is to investigate the optimal jet-to-target distance (Z/D) for stagnation point heat transfer and location of second peak of local heat transfer at small Z/D value of 1.5. Pressure and temperature sensitive paints measurements techniques are implemented to obtain the distribution of pressure and temperature on target surface. Flow visualization test has also been performed using surface oil and smoke technique to obtain the streamline distribution over the impinged surface and to qualitative study jet characteristics. The optimal (Z/D) is found to be 4.8 and second peak location for Z/D of 1.5 is at radial location (r/D) of 1.8. Comparison of average Nu with correlation from open literature, shows agreement to within experimental uncertainty for Z/D=5, while for Z/D=1.5 a 23% difference is found. Experimental results are compared to computational (CFD) prediction using Realizable κ-ε turbulence model.
