Most impinging jet industrial applications involve turbulent flow in the whole domain downstream of the nozzle, and modeling turbulent flow presents the greatest challenge in the effort to rapidly and accurately predict the behavior of turbulent jets. Numerical modeling of impinging jet flows and heat transfer is employed widely for prediction, sensitivity analysis, and device design. Finite volume computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models of impinging jets have succeeded in making good predictions of heat transfer coefficients and velocity fields. The difficulties in accurately predicting velocities and transfer coefficients stem primarily from modeling of turbulence and the interaction of the turbulent flow field with the wall. In present work, the flow and heat transfer characteristics of circular multi jet array (3×3) of 5mm diameter impinging on the Flat plate heat sink are numerically analyzed based on the CFD commercial code ANSYS CFX. The relative performance of four different turbulence models, including Standard k-ε, RNG k-ε, (Renormalization Group), Standard k-ω and SST (Shear-Stress Transport) k-ω models are done for the prediction of this type of flow and heat transfer is investigated by comparing the numerical results with experimental data. It is found that SST k-ω model gives better predictions with moderate computational cost. Using SST k-ω model, the effect of Reynolds number (Re) on the average Nusselt number (Nua) of target plate is examined at Z/d = 6 (Z/d is the gap between nozzle exit and target surface).

Abstract This paper presents an experimental investigation on MEMS impinging jets as applied to micro heat exchangers. We have fabricated MEMS single and array jet nozzles using DRIE technology, as well as a MEMS quartz chip providing a simulated hot surface for jet impingement. The quartz chip, with an integrated polysilicon thin-film heater and distributed temperature sensors, offers high spatial resolution in temperature measurement due to the low thermal conductivity of quartz. From measured temperature distributions, heat transfer coefficients are computed for single and array micro impinging jets using finite element analysis. The results from this study for the first time provide extensive data on spatial distributions of micro impinging-jet heat transfer coefficients, and demonstrate the viability of MEMS heat exchangers that use micro impinging jets.

In this paper, the heat transfer characteristics of a circular air jet vertically impinging on a flat plate near to the nozzle (H/d=1–6, where H is the nozzle-to-target spacing and d is the diameter of the jet) are numerically analyzed. The relative performance of seven turbulent models for predicting this type of flow and heat transfer is investigated by comparing the numerical results with available benchmark experimental data. It is found that the shear-stress transport (SST) k−ω model and the large Eddy simulation (LES) time-variant model can give better predictions for the performance of fluid flow and heat transfer; especially, the SST k−ω model should be the best compromise between computational cost and accuracy. In addition, using the SST k−ω model, the effects of jet Reynolds number (Re), jet plate length-to-jet diameter ratio (L/d), target spacing-to-jet diameter ratio (H/d), and jet plate width-to-jet diameter ratio (W/d) on the local Nusselt number (Nu) of the target plate are examined; a correlation for the stagnation Nu is presented.

This study investigated the heat transfer characteristics of an array jet cooling system on a concave surface. Two types of injection holes were used: one for impinging jets normal to the impingement surface, and the other for angled impinging jets. For the normal jets, the jet Reynolds number (Re) based on the hole diameter varied from 3,000 to 10,000, and the height-to-diameter ratio (H/d) was fixed at 1.0. There were 15 injection holes positioned in a staggered 3×5 array. For the angled jets, Re was set to 5,000 and H/d was also fixed at 1.0. Naphthalene sublimation method was used to determine the heat transfer coefficients on the targeted plates. For normal impinging jet cooling, separate peaks were observed at the stagnation regions due to the curvature effect. Since a crossflow was generated by air spent from the jet arrays, the crossflow effect increased as it moved downstream. Due to the interaction between the crossflow and impinging jets, the peak values at the stagnation points increased downstream. The heat transfer coefficient on the targeted plate increased with Re. The average Sh of the angled jets was higher than that of the normal jets, as the obliquely impinging jet increased the mass flow rate and mass interaction between the jet impingement points.

The technique of using mass transfer measurements (by sublimation of naphthalene) together with the Chilton–Colburn analogy is shown to be feasible for evaluation of heat transfers from impinging jets. The method is then used to determine heat transfer coefficients at the burner walls in models of jet–impingement furnaces.

Combustor Liner

Impinging jets are commonly used to enhance heat transfer in modern gas turbine engines. Impinging jets used in turbine blade cooling typically operate at lower Reynolds numbers in the range of 10,000–20,000. In combustor liner cooling, the Reynolds numbers of the jets can be as high as 60,000. The present study is aimed at experimentally testing two different styles of jet impingement geometries to be used in backside combustor cooling. The higher jet Reynolds numbers lead to increased overall heat transfer characteristics, but also an increase in crossflow caused by spent air. The crossflow air has the effect of rapidly degrading the downstream jets at high jet Reynolds numbers. In an effort to increase the efficiency of the coolant air, configurations designed to reduce the harmful effects of crossflow are studied. Two main designs, a corrugated wall and extended port, are tested. Local heat transfer coefficients are obtained for each test section through a transient liquid crystal technique. Results show that both geometries reduce the crossflow induced degradation on downstream jets, but different geometries perform better at different Reynolds numbers. The extended port and corrugated wall configurations show similar benefits at the high Reynolds numbers, but at low Reynolds numbers, the extended port design increases the overall level of heat transfer. This is attributed to the developed jet velocity profile at the tube exit. The best possible explanation is that the benefit of the developed jet velocity profile diminishes as jet velocities rise and the air has lesser time to develop prior to exiting.

An analytical model is developed to determine the effect of the temperature of entrained fluid (entrainment temperature) on the local heat transfer to a single, plane, turbulent impinging jet. Solutions of the momentum and energy equations for a single impinging jet are accomplished using similarity and series analyses. Solutions of the energy equation are obtained for the two limiting cases of entrainment temperatures equal to the plate temperature and the initial jet temperature. The analytical solutions are superposed to obtain the solution for all intermediate entrainment temperatures. The constants in the turbulence model are determined by comparing the analytical solutions to experimentally determined local heat transfer rates for single impinging jets issuing into an environment with a controlled entrainment temperature. When the single jet model is applied to jet arrays it predicts that the entrainment in the recirculation region between the jets can significantly affect the heat transfer. Comparison of the model to heat transfer measurements performed for jet arrays shows that the model successfully predicts the local heat transfer in jet arrays.

Nozzle Type

In order to investigate the heat transfer of confined impinging jet with tiny size round nozzle, a bakelite laminate was used as the heat transfer surface of simulated chip. The thermocouples were mounted symmetrically along the diagonal of the laminate to measure the temperature distribution of the surface. The parameters such as Reynolds number (Re) and ratio of height-to-diameter were changed to investigate the radial distribution of Nu and the characteristics of heat transfer in stagnant section. The results show that hear transfer coefficient at stagnation point is maximal. It is decreased with the increases of the radial jet distance, but increased with Re and impinging height. Moreover, the effect of single-nozzle type is stronger than that of multi-nozzle type in the cases of same air flow. These studies will give a way for the application of air jet impingement in the electronics chip cooling.

Experimental measurements were obtained to characterize the thermal performance of ducted air suction in conjunction with a pin-fin heat sink. Four single nozzles of different diameters and two multiple-nozzle arrays were studied at a fixed nozzle-to-target distance, for different turbulent Reynolds numbers 5000⩽Re⩽20,000. Variations of nozzle-to-target distance, i.e., open area, in ducted suction were found to have a strong effect on heat transfer especially with the larger diameter single nozzle and both multiple-nozzle arrays. Enhancement factors were computed with the heat sink in suction flow, relative to a bare surface, and were in the range of 8.3 to 17.7, with the largest value being obtained for the nine-nozzle array. Results from the present study on air jet suction are compared with previous experiments with air jet impingement on the pin-fin heat sink. Average heat transfer coefficients and thermal resistance values are reported for the heat sink as a function of Reynolds number, air flow rate, and pumping power. [S1043-7398(00)00903-8]
