Impingement Heat Transfer

Impinging heat transferred by a pulsed jet induced by a six-chevron nozzle on a semicylindrical concave surface is investigated by varying jet Reynolds numbers (5000 ≤ Re ≤ 20,000), operational frequencies (0 Hz ≤ f ≤ 25 Hz), and dimensionless nozzle-to-surface distances (1 ≤ H/d ≤ 8) while fixing the duty cycle as DC = 0.5. The semicylindrical concave surface has a cylinder diameter-to-nozzle diameter ratio (D/d) of 10. The results show that the nozzle-to-surface distance has a significant impact on the impingement heat transfer of the pulsed chevron jet. An optimal nozzle-to-surface distance for achieving the maximum stagnation Nusselt number appears at H/d  =  6. In the wall jet zone, the averaged Nusselt number is the largest at H/d = 2 and the smallest at H/d = 8. In comparison with the chevron steady jet impingement, the effect of nozzle-to-surface distance on the convective heat transfer becomes less notable for the pulsed chevron jet impingement. The stagnation Nusselt number under the pulsed chevron jet impingement is mostly less than that under the chevron steady jet impingement. However, at H/d = 8, the pulsed chevron jet is more effective than the steady jet. This study confirmed that the pulsed chevron jet produced higher azimuthally averaged Nusselt numbers than the steady chevron jet in the wall jet flow zone at large nozzle-to-surface distances. The stagnation Nusselt numbers by the pulsed chevron jet impingement have a maximum reduction of 21.0% (f = 20 Hz, H/d = 4, and Re = 2000) compared with that of the steady chevron jet impingement. Also, the pulsed chevron jet impingement heat transfer on a concave surface is less effective compared to a flat surface. The stagnation Nusselt numbers on the semicylindrical concave surface have a maximum reduction of about 37.7% (f = 20 Hz, H/d = 8, and Re = 5000) compared with that on the flat surface.

Impingement Heat Transfer

Heat transfer characteristics of an impinging air jet are experimentally investigated under a fixed pumping power condition. The effects of dimensionless pumping power on the Nusselt number are considered. The focus is on cases where the nozzle-to-plate spacing is equal to or less than one nozzle diameter. The results show that the Nusselt number is independent of the nozzle-to-plate spacing under fixed pumping power conditions, while the Nusselt number increases with decreasing the nozzle-to-plate spacing under fixed flow rate conditions. Based on the experimental results, new correlations for the stagnation and average Nusselt numbers of the impinging jet are developed as a function of the pumping power alone.

Impingement heat transfer between a circular jet and a semi-spherical concave surface with or without coverage of porous material is investigated experimentally and numerically. For cases with coverage of the porous material on the target plate, a trapping hole for the jet fluid is fabricated. Measured local Nusselt number distributions along a meridian are documented. The flow and temperature fields at the conditions similar to that of experiments were computed with CFD software to support the experimental results and help to explain the physics. Varying parameters include Reynolds number, nozzle-to-plate distance, relative curvature, and a target surface with or without the covered porous material. Results show that the attachment of a porous material increases Nusselt number, with more influence at the stagnation zone than the far field. Increasing Reynolds number usually increases Nusselt number unless it is too high. Although an increase in the nozzle-to-plate distance decreases stagnation Nusselt number, the influence in heat transfer is small in the far field. The trapping-hole diameter should be the same as that of the jet diameter for best heat transfer enhancement.

Impingement Heat Transfer

Jet impingement heat transfer on a target plate covered with a thick porous layer with or without a cylindrical center cavity is experimentally investigated using the transient liquid crystal technique. Based on the results of jet impingement on a bare flat plate, heat transfer enhancement due to the attachment of porous medium is assessed. The varying parameters in the experiments include the nozzle-to-plate distance, jet Reynolds number, jet-to-cavity diameter ratio, and the cavity depth. Results of Nusselt number distribution, stagnation-zone Nusselt number, and averaged Nusselt number over a region of 3 times the hole diameter are documented. Experimental results show that the attachment of the porous layer with a center cavity can either hamper, or effectively enhance the jet impingement heat transfer over a flat plate. The maximum enhancement occurs at jet Reynolds number of 12400 when the cavity is a through hole and the cavity has the same diameter as the jet. The stagnation-zone Nusselt number increases 58.3% and the averaged Nusselt number increases 77.5% at the maximum enhancement condition. On the other hand, the addition of the thick porous layer without a center cavity gave rise to severe adverse effect on jet impingement heat transfer.

Impingement Surface

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.

Impingement Heat Transfer

Abstract In the jets array cooling system of the gas turbine, the downstream jets will be deflected by the crossflow and the heat transfer in the downstream will be suppressed. In this paper, the rectangular vortex generators are arranged in the jet arrays to enhance the jet impingement heat transfer. Through the numerical simulations, the configuration of rectangular vortex generators (Common-flow-down CFD and Common-flow-up CFU) and the relative position (l2) between the impingements and the rectangular vortex generators are studied. The results show that both of configurations are beneficial to the suppression of the crossflow and enhance the heat transfer in the downstream. The maximum enhancement of the whole regional average Nusselt numbers in CFD-VGs configuration can reach up to 9.09% with lower than 5% increase of the pressure loss and that in CFU-VGs configuration can reach up to 10.8% with lower than 4.8% increase of the pressure loss. From the perspective of the whole regional average Nusselt numbers and the overall thermal efficiency, the CFD-VGs with l2 = 0 has the best performance. However, from the perspective of the whole regional average Nusselt numbers, the CFU-VGs with l2 = 0 has the best performance, while from the perspective of the overall thermal efficiency, the CFU-VGs with l2 = 3 has the best performance.

The Relationship

A series of tests were performed for the pulsating jet impingement heat transfer by varying the Reynolds number (5000 ≤ Re ≤ 20,000), operation frequency (10 Hz ≤ f ≤ 25 Hz), and dimensionless nozzle-to-surface distance (1≤H/d≤8) while fixing the duty cycle (DC) = 0.5(280 measurement data in total). Specific attention was paid to examine the relationship between the pulsating jet impingement and the steady jet impingement. By using a modified Strouhal number (Sr(H/d)), the test data are analyzed according to three classifications of the enhancement factors a = Nupulsation jet/Nusteady jet (such as a ∈ (Min,0.899), a ∈ (0.95, 1.049) and a ∈ (1.1, Max)). The results show that the identification of pulsating jet impingement in related to the steady jet impingement is suitable by using the modified Strouhal number (Sr(H/d)). Within the scope of this study, the most possibilities for the heat transfer enhancement by using pulsating jet impingement are suggested as the following conditions: Re ≤ 7500 and Sr(H/d) ≥ 0.04, Re ≥ 17500, and 0.01 ≤ Sr(H/d) ≤ 0.03; 10 Hz ≤ f ≤ 20 Hz and Sr(H/d) ≥ 0.04; H/d ≥ 6 and most of current Sr(H/d). While under such conditions, 7500 ≤ Re ≤ 15,000 and Sr(H/d) ≤ 0.02; f ≥ 20 Hz and Sr(H/d) ≤ 0.04; H/d ≤ 2 and Sr(H/d) ≤ 0.02, the pulsating jet impingement makes the heat transfer weaker than the steady jet impingement more obviously.

Impingement Heat Transfer

Mathematical model combining theoretical analysis approach and differential numerical solving techniques has been set up to predict the free surface water jet impingement heat transfer. Heat transfer properties are obtained and validated by comparison with experiments. The characteristic of Nu-r/d distribution is discussed and the effect of nozzle diameter is analyzed. In addition, nozzle arrangements are studied for water jet equipment designation purpose. The results show that: Reynolds number is the dominate parameter in Nu-r/d distribution and area-averaged Nusselt number increases with increasing nozzle diameter. The best heat transfer effect appears when the aspect ratio of rectangular surface equals to 1. Fewer nozzles and bigger single impinged area could get larger Nusselt number under a given total water flow rate and given total impinged area. At a constant flow rate, larger nozzle diameter and smaller Reynolds number present a larger Nusselt number.

In this study, effects of extended jet holes to heat transfer and flow characteristics of jet impingement cooling were numerically investigated. Cross-flow in the impinging jet cooling adversely affects the heat transfer on the target surface. The main purpose of this study is to reduce the negative effect of cross-flow on heat transfer by extending jet holes toward the target surface with nozzles. This study has been conducted under turbulent flow condition (15,000 ≤ Re  ≤  45,000). The surface of the turbine blade, which is the target surface, has been modeled as a flat plate. The effect of the ribs, placed on the target surface, on the heat transfer has been also investigated, and the results were compared with the flat surface. The parameters such as average and local Nusselt numbers on the target surface, flow characteristics, and compressor power have been examined in detail. It was obtained from the numerical results that the average Nusselt number increases with decreasing the gap between the target surface and the nozzle. In addition, the higher average Nusselt number was obtained on the flat surface than the ribbed surface. The lowest compressor power was achieved in the 5Dj nozzle gap for the flat surface and in the 4Dj nozzle gap for the ribbed surface.
