Numerical Analysis of Heat Transfer During Jet Impingement on Curved Surfaces


Book Description

ABSTRACT: The flow structure and convective heat transfer behavior of a free liquid jet ejecting from a round nozzle impinging vertically on a hemispherical solid plate and a slot nozzle impinging vertically on a cylindrical curved plate have been studied using a numerical analysis approach. The simulation model incorporated the entire fluid region and the solid hemisphere or curved plate. Solution was done for both isothermal and constant heat flux boundary conditions at the inner surface of the hemispherical plate and the constant heat flux boundary condition at the inner surface of the cylindrical shaped plate. Computations for the round nozzle impinging jet on the hemispherical plate and cylindrical plate were done for jet Reynolds number (ReJ) ranging from 500 to 2000, dimensionless nozzle to target spacing ratio (β) from 0.75 to 3, and for various dimensionless plate thicknesses to diameter nozzle ratio (b/dn) from 0.083-1.5. Also, computations for the slot nozzle impinging jet on the cylindrical plate were done for inner plate radius of curvature to nozzle diameter ratio (Ri/dn) of 4.16-16.66, plate thickness to nozzle diameter ratio (b/dn) of 0.08-1.0, and different nozzle diameters (dn), Results are presented for dimensionless solid-fluid interface temperature, dimensionless maximum temperature in the solid, local and average Nusselt numbers using the following fluids: water (H2O), flouroinert (FC-77), and oil (MIL-7808) and the following solid materials: aluminum, copper, Constantan, silver, and silicon. Materials with higher thermal conductivity maintained a more uniform temperature distribution at the solid-fluid interface. A higher Reynolds number increased the Nusselt number over the entire solid-fluid interface. Local and average Nusselt number and heat transfer coefficient distributions showed a strong dependence on the impingement velocity or Reynolds number. As the velocity increases, the local Nusselt number increases over the entire solid-fluid interface. Decreasing the nozzle to target spacing favors the increasing of the Nusselt number. Increasing the nozzle diameter decreases the temperature at the curved plate outer surface and increases the local Nusselt number. Similarly, local and average Nusselt number was enhanced by decreasing plate thickness. Numerical simulation results are validated by comparing with experimental measurements and related correlations.

Flow and Heat Transfers Associated with Impinging Jets in Crossflows


Book Description

This thesis reports the results of an experimental study into the flow and heat transfers associated with both inclined and orthogonally impinging axisymmetric air jets. The majority of previously reported studies have been mainly confined to orthogonally impinging jets in stagnant surroundings. In this investigation, free jets as well as the effects of crossflows are considered. This investigation is Primarily concerned with local heat transfer variations. The experimental tests were. conducted with a single 12.7 mm diameter jet impinging on a flat surface, and heat transfers were evaluated using a heat-mass transfer analogy (t e Chilton-Colburn analogy). The sublimation of naphthalene was employed as the mass transfer technique. The flowfield associated with impinging jets has a significant influence on their heat transfer characteristics., In view of the present limited level of understanding of this 'complex' flowfield, extensive flow visualisation techniques were employed in this present investigation. Those were primarily intended to aid interpretation of the experimental heat transfer results, and also to provide further physical understanding of the flowfields resulting from the interactions between impinging jets and crossflowing streams. The flow and heat transfer tests conducted in the programme of work reported in this thesis covered typical ranges of flow parameters of interest in many practical applications of jet impingement systems. Jet inclinations of 45°, 600, and 90°, nozzle to target spacings of 2,11, and 8 nozzle diameters were studied. The Reynolds nuinbers were 30,200,32,700 and 55,100 and mass velocity ratios In the range 4.0 to 3.8 were studied. The effects of these parameters on the flow and heal transfers associated with impinging jets are reported. Comparisons were drawn between the heat transfer results and those of previously reported studies where appropriate.










Analysis of Impingement Heat Transfer for Two Parallel Liquid-metal Slot Jets


Book Description

An analytical method is developed for determining heat transfer by impinging liquid-metal slot jets. The method involves mapping the jet flow region, which is bounded by free streamlines, into a potential plane where it becomes a uniform flow in a channel of constant width. The energy equation is transformed into potential plane coordinates and is solved in the channel flow region. Conformal mapping is then used to transform the solution back into the physical plane and obtain the desired heat-transfer characteristics. The analysis given here determines the heat-transfer characteristics for two parallel liquid-metal slot jets impinging normally against a uniformly heated flat plate. The liquid-metal assumptions are made that the jets are inviscid and that molecular conduction is dominating heat diffusion. Wall temperature distributions along the heated plate are obtained as a function of spacing between the jets and the jet Peclet number.
