Numerical analyses were performed to determine the oscillation effect of an impingement surface on the impingement heat transfer and flow with a confined wall. As a moving boundary problem, two-dimensional governing equations were solved for the Reynolds numbers Re=200 and 500, the Prandtl number Pr=0.71, the dimensionless space between the nozzle and impingement surface H=1.0, and the Strouhal number Sf=0–1.0. Oscillation induced both the enhancement and depression of the local heat transfer. The local heat transfer was improved at a comparatively low frequency due to the flow fluctuation. On the other hand, at a high frequency, it was depressed due to the flow in an upper direction near the impingement surface. The oscillation effect spatially appeared downstream after the impingement.

This paper describes the oscillation effect of impingement surface on two-dimensional impingement heat transfer with confined wall. The local temperature distribution on an impingement surface was measured using a thermosensitive liquid crystal sheet and an image processor. Experiments were conducted by using air as a working fluid. Experimental conditions were as follows: Reynolds number Re=1000–10,000, dimensionless distance between nozzle and impingement surface h∕B=1.0–4.0, frequency f=0–100Hz, and amplitudes a=0.5mm and 1.0mm. The local Nusselt number was improved for the comparatively low Reynolds number and low frequency and was depressed for high frequency. In the case of heat transfer enhancement, vortices on the impingement surface were renewed frequently, and on the other hand, in the case of heat transfer depression, thermal boundary layer thickness increased in appearance by the vibration of the impingement surface.

Experimental data are presented for local heat transfer rates near the entrance to a flat duct in which there is an abrupt symmetrical enlargement in flow cross section. Two enlargement area ratios are considered, and Reynolds numbers, based on duct hydraulic diameter, varied from 70,000 to 205,000. It is found that such a flow is characterized by a long stall on one side and a short stall on the other. Maximum heat transfer occurs in both cases at the point of reattachment, followed by a decay toward the values for fully developed duct flow. Empirical equations are given for the Nusselt number at the reattachment point, correlated as functions of duct Reynolds number and enlargement ratio.

Systematic experiments are conducted to measure heat transfer enhancement and pressure loss characteristics on a square channel (simulating a gas turbine blade cooling passage) with two opposite surfaces roughened by 45 deg parallel ribs. Copper plates fitted with a silicone heater and instrumented with thermocouples are used to measure regionally averaged local heat transfer coefficients. Reynolds numbers studied in the channel range from 30,000 to 400,000. The rib height (e) to hydraulic diameter (D) ratio ranges from 0.1 to 0.18. The rib spacing (p) to height ratio (p/e) ranges from 5 to 10. Results show higher heat transfer coefficients at smaller values of p/e and larger values of e/D, though at the cost of higher friction losses. Results also indicate that the thermal performance of the ribbed channel falls with increasing Reynolds numbers. Correlations predicting Nusselt number (Nu) and friction factor (f¯) as a function of p/e, e/D, and Re are developed. Also developed are correlations for R and G (friction and heat transfer roughness functions, respectively) as a function of the roughness Reynolds number (e+), p/e, and e/D.

The paper reports extensive connective heat transfer data for turbulent flow of air around a U-bend with a ratio of bend radius:pipe diameter of 3.375:1. Experiments cover Reynolds numbers from 2 × 104 to 1.1 × 105. Measurements of local heat transfer coefficient are made at six stations and at five circumferential positions at each station. At Re = 6 × 104 a detailed mapping of the temperature field within the air is made at the same stations. The experiment duplicates the flow configuration for which Azzola and Humphrey [3] have recently reported laser-Doppler measurements of the mean and turbulent velocity field. The measurements show a strong augmentation of heat transfer coefficient on the outside of the bend and relatively low levels on the inside associated with the combined effects of secondary flow and the amplification/suppression of turbulent mixing by streamline curvature. The peak level of Nu occurs halfway around the bend at which position the heat transfer coefficient on the outside is about three times that on the inside. Another feature of interest is that a strongly nonuniform Nu persists six diameters downstream of the bend even though secondary flow and streamline curvature are negligible there. At the entry to the bend there are signs of partial laminarization on the inside of the bend, an effect that is more pronounced at lower Reynolds numbers.

Abstract Two-dimensional Navier-Stokes simulations of heat and momentum transport in an intermittently grooved passage are performed using the spectral element technique for the Reynolds number range 600 ≤ Re ≤ 1800. The computational domain has seven contiguous transverse grooves cut symmetrically into opposite walls, followed by a flat section with the same length. Periodic inflow/outflow boundary conditions are employed. The development and decay of unsteady flow is observed in the grooved and flat sections, respectively. The axial variation of the unsteady component of velocity is compared to the local heat transfer, shear stress and pressure gradient. The results suggest that intermittently grooved passages may offer even higher heat transfer for a given pumping power than the levels observed in fully grooved passages.

Abstract Measurements of the local heat transfer distribution on smooth and roughened surfaces under an array of angled impinging jets are presented. The test rig is designed to simulate impingement with cross-flow in one direction which is a common method for cooling gas turbine components such as the combustion liner. Jet angle is varied between 30, 60, and 90 degrees as measured from the impingement surface, which is either smooth or randomly roughened. Liquid crystal video thermography is used to capture surface temperature data at five different jet Reynolds numbers ranging between 15,000 and 35,000. The effect of jet angle, Reynolds number, gap, and surface roughness on heat transfer efficiency and pressure loss is determined along with the various interactions among these parameters. Peak heat transfer coefficients for the range of Reynolds number from 15,000 to 35,000 are highest for orthogonal jets impinging on roughened surface; peak Nu values for this configuration ranged from 88 to 165 depending on Reynolds number. The ratio of peak to average Nu is lowest for 30-degree jets impinging on roughened surfaces. It is often desirable to minimize this ratio in order to decrease thermal gradients, which could lead to thermal fatigue. High thermal stress can significantly reduce the useful life of engineering components and machinery. Peak heat transfer coefficients decay in the cross-flow direction by close to 24% over a dimensionless length of 20. The decrease of spanwise average Nu in the crossflow direction is lowest for the case of 30-degree jets impinging on a roughened surface where the decrease was less than 3%. The decrease is greatest for 30-degree jet impingement on a smooth surface where the stagnation point Nu decreased by more than 23% for some Reynolds numbers.

An experimental study was done to determine the effect of entrainment temperature on the local heat transfer rates to single and multiple, plane, turbulent impinging air jets. To determine the effect of entrainment of the surrounding fluid, the single jet issued into an environment at a temperature which was varied between the initial temperature of the jet and the temperature of the heated impingement plate. An analytical model was used to correlate the measured heat transfer rate to a single jet. The effect of the entrainment temperature in a single jet was then used to analyze the effect of entrainment from the recirculation region between the jets of a jet array. Using the measured temperature in the recirculation region to include the effect of entrainment, the single jet correlations were successfully applied to multiple jets.

When heat is released by forced convection from electronic modules in a narrow printed circuit board channel, complex flow phenomena—such as stagnation and acceleration on the front surface, separation and reattachment on the top surface, wake or cavity flow near the rear surface—affect the heat transfer characteristics. The purpose of this study is to investigate how these flow conditions influence the local heat transfer from electronic modules. Experiments are performed on a three-dimensional array of hexahedral elements as well as on a two-dimensional array of rectangular elements. Naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to measure three-dimensional local mass transfer, and the mass transfer data are converted to their counterparts of the heat transfer process using the analogy equation between heat and mass transfer. Module location and streamwise module spacing are varied, and the effect of vortex generators on heat transfer enhancement is also examined. Dramatic change of local heat transfer coefficients is found on each surface of the module, and three-dimensional modules have a little higher heat transfer value than two-dimensional modules because of bypass flow. Longitudinal vortices formed by vortex generator enhance the mixing of fluids and thereby heat transfer, and the rectangular wing type vortex generator is found to be more effective than the delta wing type vortex generator.
