Experimental investigation on heat transfer mechanism of air–water mist jet impingement cooling on a heated cylinder is presented. The target cylinder was electrically heated and was maintained under the boiling temperature of water. Parametric studies were carried out for four different values of mist loading fractions, Reynolds numbers, and nozzle-to-surface spacings. Reynolds number, Rehyd, defined based on the hydraulic diameter, was varied from 8820 to 17,106; mist loading fraction, f ranges from 0.25% to 1.0%; and nozzle-to-surface spacing, H/d was varied from 30 to 60. The increment in the heat transfer coefficient with respect to air-jet impingement is presented along with variation in the heat transfer coefficient along the axial and circumferential direction. It is observed that the increase in mist loading greatly increases the heat transfer rate. Increment in the heat transfer coefficient at the stagnation point is found to be 185%, 234%, 272%, and 312% for mist loading fraction 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1.0%, respectively. Experimental study shows identical increment in stagnation point heat transfer coefficient with increasing Reynolds number, with lowest Reynolds number yielding highest increment. Stagnation point heat transfer coefficient increased 263%, 259%, 241%, and 241% as compared to air-jet impingement for Reynolds number 8820, 11,493, 14,166, and 17,106, respectively. The increment in the heat transfer coefficient is observed with a decrease in nozzle-to-surface spacing. Stagnation point heat transfer coefficient increased 282%, 248%, 239%, and 232% as compared to air-jet impingement for nozzle-to-surface spacing of 30, 40, 50, and 60, respectively, is obtained from the experimental analysis. Based on the experimental results, a correlation for stagnation point heat transfer coefficient increment is also proposed.

An effective method for performing the thermal optimization of stationary and rotating multichip module (MCM) disks with an unconfined round-jet impingement under space limitation constraint has been successfully developed. The design variables of stationary and rotating MCM disks with an unconfined round-jet impingement include the ratio of jet separation distance to nozzle diameter, Grashof number, jet Reynolds number, and rotational Reynolds number. The total experimental cases for stationary and rotating MCM disks are statistically designed by the central composite design method. In addition, a sensitivity analysis, the so-called analysis of variance, for the design factors has been performed. Among the influencing parameters, the jet Reynolds number dominates the thermal performance, while the Grashof number is found to have the least effect on heat-transfer performance for both stationary and rotating cases. Furthermore, the comparisons between the predictions by using the quadratic response surface methodology and the experimental data for both stationary and rotating cases are made with a satisfactory agreement. Finally, with the sequential quadratic programming technique, a series of thermal optimizations under multiconstraints—such as space, jet Reynolds number, rotational Reynolds number, nozzle exit velocity, disk rotational speed, and various power consumptions—has been systematically explored and discussed.

An experimental study was carried out to study the effect of multiple jet impingement on a virtual electronic component using water and air as working fluids. It consists of an electrically heated test plate of size 20mm×20mm. Heat flux is varied between 25 to 250W/cm2 was dissipated using 0.25 and 0.5mm diameter jets placed in a 7×7 array with a pitch of 3mm. The difference in temperature between test surface and fluid inlet is within 30 degC for water jets and within 75 degC for air jet experiments. Experiments were conducted by changing the heat flux, flow rate and distance between the test surface and jet exit and [iv] horizontal and vertical positioning of the jets. It was found that heat flux, jet diameter and Reynolds number are important factors in determining the heat transfer. The effects of distance between test surface and jet exit [Z] and positioning of the jets were insignificant. Though the multiple jet impingement heat transfer problem is complex, the heat transfer results could be correlated using a simple relationship in the form of Nu = AqmRen. The constant (m) which indicates the effect of heat flux has the value of 0.8 and 0.9 depending upon the jet diameter and the coolant. The constant (n) which indicates the influence of Reynolds number has the value of 0.25 for both water and air jets. The value of constant (A) is different for water and air jets. The correlation developed in this research work can be effectively used to design multiple water and air jet cooling system for electronic components.

Jet impingement cooling has been studied extensively as this finds applications in the areas of reactor safety, electronic cooling, etc. Here, the convective heat transfer process between the air jet impingement on a uniformly heated inclined flat plate is studied numerically. In this numerical study, 3D simulations are carried out using commercial CFD code to investigate the effect of angle of inclination of plate, Reynolds number, and distance between the nozzle exit and the plate on the heat transfer characteristics. V2F model has been used to model turbulence for various nozzle–plate distance and Reynolds number. It can be concluded that V2F model predicts the Nusselt number variation on the plate satisfactorily. It is observed that point of maximum heat transfer is at the stagnation point in case of vertical jet impinging on a horizontal plate, while it shifts away from the point of impingement for the case of a vertical jet impinging on an inclined flat surface. The shift is toward the “compression side” or the “uphill side” of the air jet. The results are validated with experimental data from the literature. Detailed analysis of local heat transfer coefficients, velocity contours, temperature contours, and Nusselt number variations on the flat plate is presented.

In this study, air jet impingement on flat, triangular-corrugated, and sinusoidal-corrugated surfaces was numerically investigated. Bottom surface was subjected to constant surface temperature. Air was the working fluid. The air exited from a rectangular shaped slot and impinged on the bottom surface. The Reynolds number was changed between 125 and 500. The continuity, momentum, and energy equations were solved using the finite volume method. The effect of the shape of bottom surface on heat and flow characteristics was investigated in detail. Average and local Nusselt number were calculated for each case. It was found out that Nusselt number increases by increasing the Reynolds number. The optimum conditions were established to get much more enhancement in terms of performance evaluation criterion (PEC). It was revealed that the shape of the cooling surface (bottom wall) influences the heat transfer substantially.

An experiment sturdy has been carried out for jet impingement cooling on the spherically convex surface is the development of mechanism. The effect of curvature, Space between jet exit and target surface, and Reynolds number on heat transfer is investigated for around air jet on hemispherical surface. The flow at the jet exit has fully developed velocity profile. A uniform heat flux boundary is created on the heated surface. The experiments are performed for 5000<Re<25000, 2<L/d<10, and jet diameters ranging from 1.3, 2.1, 3.4, 4.0 and 5.2 cm. In the mean time effect of curvature on local heat transfer is negligible at the wall jet region corresponding to r/d>0.5. From the experimental results the variation of the D/d ratio with local Nusselt number (Nust) for various Reynolds numbers and various L/d ratios are plotted. The results show that Nust increase with increase in curvature and the effect of the curvature will high at high Reynolds number. i.e. Nust at Re=25000 is 25% higher than at Re= 5000 This may be attributed to an increase in curvature increases acceleration, & size of three dimensional counter rotating vortices at stagnation point and the increment of Reynolds number increases the jet momentum, and also enhances the vortices creation. Nust is peaking in the L/d ratio of 6 because of high turbulence intensity as this distance.

The convective heat transfer process between the orthogonal air jet impingement on a uniformly heated flat plate is studied numerically. In this numerical study, three-dimensional (3D) simulations are carried out in Fluent 14.0 to investigate the effect of Reynolds number, distance between nozzle exit and the plate on the heat transfer characteristics. V2F turbulence model has been used to model turbulence. Standard κ–ε, Realizable κ–ε, κ–ε RNG, SST κ–ω, Standard κ–ω, V2F turbulence models have been studied for orthogonal jet impingement in this work. It is observed that for jet exit to plate distance (Z/d) of 0.5 ≤ Z/d ≤ 6, V2F model is best suited. For Z/d ≤ 0.5 and Z/d ≥ 6, numerical results vary significantly from the experimental results. Reynolds number of 12,000, 20,000, and 28,000 has been studied. In this paper, results for various jet exit to the plate distance (Z/d) from 0.5 to 10 are presented. At low jet plate spacing Z/d < 4, secondary peak in Nusselt number distribution over the plate is visible in experimental results. V2F model correctly predicts the secondary peak in Nusselt number variation over the plate. Other models fail to predict the secondary peak which is of significant importance in air jet impingement at low jet-plate spacing (Z/d < 4).

An experimental investigation was conducted to explore the flow behavior, pressure drop, and heat transfer due to free air jet impingement on square in-line pin fin heat sinks (PFHS) mounted on a plane horizontal surface. A parametrically consistent set of aluminum heat sinks with fixed base dimension of 25 × 25 mm was used, with pin heights varying between 12.5 mm and 22.5 mm, and fin thickness between 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm. A 6:1 contracting nozzle having a square outlet cross sectional area of 25 × 25 mm was used to blow air at ambient temperature on the top of the heat sinks with velocities varying from 2 to 20 m/s. The ratio of the gap between the jet exit and the pin tips to the pin height, the so-called tip clearance ratio, was varied from 0 (no tip clearance) to 1. The stagnation pressure recovered at the center of the heat sink was higher for tall pins than short pins. The pressure loss coefficient showed a little dependence on Re, increased with increasing pin density, and pin diameter, and decreased with increasing pin height and clearance ratio. The overall base-to-ambient thermal resistance decreased with increasing Re number, pin density and pin diameter. Surprisingly, the dependence of the thermal resistance on the pin height and clearance ratio was shown to be mild at low Re, and to vanish at high Re number.

Air jet impingement is one of the effective cooling techniques employed in micro-electronic industry. To enhance the heat transfer performance, a cooling system with air jet impingement on a finned heat sink is evaluated via the computational fluid dynamics method. A two-dimensional confined slot air impinging on a finned flat plate is modeled. The numerical model is validated by comparison of the computed Nusselt number distribution on the impingement target with published experimental results. The flow characteristics and heat transfer performance of jet impingement on both of smooth and finned heat sinks are compared. It is observed that jet impingement over finned target plate improves the cooling performance significantly. A dimensionless heat transfer enhancement factor is introduced to quantify the effect of jet flow Reynolds number on the finned surface. The effect of rectangular fin dimensions on impingement heat transfer rate is discussed in order to optimize the cooling system. Also, the computed flow and thermal fields of the air impingement system are examined to explore the physical mechanisms for heat transfer enhancement.
