An experimental study of the flow interaction and heat transfer between a single impinging jet and a rotating disk is presented. Tests were conducted over a range of jet flowrates, impingement radii, and disk rotational speeds with various combinations of three jet and three disk sizes. Flow visualization using smoke addition to the jet flow reveals the presence of a flow regime transition which is correlated in terms of the rotationally induced disk pumping flow acting as a cross-flow influence on the jet. Higher rotational speeds, larger impingement radii, and smaller jet flowrates favor a rotationally dominated flow interaction whereas the opposite trends favor an impingement dominated interaction. Heat transfer rates are essentially independent of jet flowrate in the rotationally dominated regime, but increase, strongly with increasing flowrate in the impingement dominated regime.

Results are presented from an experimental study conducted to measure heat transfer rates at the rim of a rotating disk convectively cooled by impinging jets. The disk face contour radially inward from the rim is varied to simulate the geometric conditions found on gas turbine engine rotors. Heat transfer rates are found to be relatively unaffected by impingement for jet flowrates less than the order of one-tenth the disk pumping flow. Disk pumping flows are evaluated through the use of an analysis which accounts for the presence of the disk hub. At larger jet flowrates, heat transfer rates increase strongly with increasing jet flow, reaching two to three times the no-impingement values at jet flowrates approximately equal to the pumped flow. All the heat transfer results, both with and without jet impingement, are essentially unaffected by changes in the disk face contour.

This work focuses on the numerical and experimental study of convective heat transfer in a rotor of a discoidal the machine with an eccentric impinging jet. Convective heat transfers are determined experimentally in steady state on the surface of a single rotating disk. The experimental technique is based on the use of infrared thermography to access surface temperature measurement, and on the numerical resolution of the energy equation in steady-state, to evaluate local convective coefficients. The results from the numerical simulation are compared with heat transfer experiments for rotational Reynolds numbers between 2.38×105 and 5.44×105 and for the jet's Reynolds numbers ranging from 16.5×103 to 49.6 ×103. A good agreement between the two approaches was obtained in the case of a single rotating disk, which confirms us in the choice of our numerical model. On the other hand, a numerical study of the flow and convective heat transfer in the case of an unconfined rotor-stator system with an eccentric air jet impinging and for a dimensionless spacing G=0.02, was carried out. The results obtained revealed the presence of different heat transfer zones dominated either by rotation only, by the air flow only or by the dynamics of the rotation flow superimposed on that of the air flow. Critical radii on the rotor surface have been identified

Impinging jet is widely used in both traditional industrial and new high-tech fields. High efficiency heat transfer in impinging jet cooling makes it an important method for heat transfer enhancement, in particular in cooling of electronic devices with high heat density. This paper presents an experimental study of heat transfer by an impinging circular water jet. A Constantan foil with the size of 5 mm × 5 mm was used to simulate a microelectronic chip with heat generated by passing an electrical current through the foil. A high heat flux over 106 W/m2 was achieved. The surface temperature was measured by a thermocouple glued onto the back surface of the foil. Both a free surface jet and a submerged jet were investigated. Effect of the nozzle-to-surface spacing as well as the jet speed at the exit of the nozzle on cooling was examined. By positioning the jet away from the center of the heating foil surface, the radial variation of the heat transfer coefficients over the foil was also investigated. Quantitative heat transfer data have been obtained and analyzed.
