In this work, the effects of jet geometry and the arrangement of film holes on the target plate on the impinging heat transfer are experimentally investigated in detail. A liquid crystal thermograph technology is employed in this study. The aspect ratios (AR) of elliptical jet with five different values, 4, 2, 1, 0.5, and 0.25, jet Reynolds number ranging from 2000 to 4000, and jet-to-target spacing ranging from 1.5 to 4.5 are considered to investigate impingement heat transfer performance. In addition, three arrangements of film hole on the target plates, named side-, middle- and staggered-types, are tested, respectively. The experimental results show that the Nu increases with the increase of jet Reynolds number. Better heat transfer is noted for the cases with smaller jet-to-plate spacing. For the effect of the arrangement of pores on the target surface, the heat transfer on middle-type plate is more significant than the other two for smaller jet-to-plate spacing. As for the effect of aspect ratio, results indicate that the optimal heat transfer performance is found with circular jet of AR = 1.

Abstract The paper proposes a technique of using advanced pin fins on a target plate to improve the impingement heat transfer performance in an array impingement cooling system. The initial shape of the advanced pin fin is a frustum of a cone. In order to enhance heat transfer and reduce flow resistance, the upper and lower sharp edges of the frustum of a cone are rounded. There are arrays of film holes on the target plate, and the influence of the crossflow is not considered. The flow and heat transfer characteristics of the array impingement flat plate and advanced pin fin plate were studied by numerical simulation. During the numerical simulation, the Reynolds number was varied from 2000 to 19500, the jet-to-plate spacing Z/d from 3 to 6 (d = 0.50mm) and the jet hole diameter d is 0.50 mm, 0.75 mm and 1.00 mm respectively. The results show that the averaged Nusselt number values for the advanced pin fin target plate showed an increase ranging from 15% to 20% over those for the flat target plate, It is generally considered that the enhancement of heat transfer is mainly due to the enhancement of fluid disturbance by the pin fins. However, by changing the size of the pin fins, it is found that the enhancement of heat transfer is mainly caused by the increase of heat transfer area, and the influence of enhancing the disturbance is not significant. The pressure loss is little higher than that of the flat plate. The averaged Nusselt number values for the advanced pin fin target plate decreases with the increase of the jet-to-plate spacing, and increases with the increase of Reynolds number. At the same mass flow rate, the averaged heat transfer performance of the pin fin target plate decreases with the increase of jet hole diameter, and the results show that the averaged heat transfer performance of 0.5mm jet hole diameter is the best.

An experimental study of the effects of three jet-induced crossflow schemes on impingement heat transfer was made. The schemes, referred to as minimum, intermediate, and maximum crossflow correspond, successively, to unrestricted flow of spent air away from the target surface, restriction of the flow to leave through two opposite sides, and through one side of a rectangular impingement surface. The study covered jet Reynolds number, jet-to-surface spacing, and open area of 1000–21,000, 2–16 jet hole diameters, and 1–4 percent, respectively. The best heat transfer performance is obtained with the minimum scheme, intermediate and complete crossflow being associated with varying degrees of degradation. For a given blower power, heat transfer can be enhanced markedly by having greater number of jets over a fixed target area; notably when working with the minimum scheme at narrow jet-to-target spacings.

This paper aims to study the convective heat transfer behavior of aqueous suspensions of nanoparticles flowing through a horizontal tube heated under constant heat flux condition. Consideration is given to the effects of particle concentration and Reynolds number on heat transfer enhancement and the possibility of nanofluids as the working fluid in various heat exchangers. It is found that (i) significant enhancement of heat transfer performance due to suspension of nanoparticles in the circular tube flow is observed in comparison with pure water as the working fluid, (ii) enhancement is intensified with an increase in the Reynolds number and the nanoparticles concentration, and (iii) substantial amplification of heat transfer performance is not attributed purely to the enhancement of thermal conductivity due to suspension of nanoparticles.

Experiments are performed to determine the local heat transfer performance in a rotating serpentine passage with rib-roughened surfaces. The ribs are placed on the trailing and leading walls in a corresponding posited arrangement with an angle of attack of 90 deg. The rib height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio, e/Dh, is 0.0787 and the rib pitch-to-height ratio, s/e, is 11. The throughflow Reynolds number is varied, typically at 23,000, 47,000, and 70,000 in the passage both at rest and in rotation. In the rotation cases, the rotation number is varied from 0.023 to 0.0594. Results for the rib-roughened serpentine passages are compared with those of smooth ones in the literature. Comparison is also made on results for the rib-roughened passages between the stationary and rotating cases. It is disclosed that a significant enhancement is achieved in the heat transfer in both the stationary and rotating cases resulting from an installation of the ribs. Both the rotation and Rayleigh numbers play important roles in the heat transfer performance on both the trailing and leading walls. Although the Reynolds number strongly influences the Nusselt numbers in the rib-roughened passage of both the stationary and rotating cases, Nuo and Nu, respectively, it has little effect on their ratio Nu/Nuo.

Abstract Nanoliquid impingement heat transfer with phase change material (PCM) installed radial system is considered. Study is performed by using finite element method for various values of Reynolds numbers (100 ≤ Re ≤ 300), height of PCM (0.25H ≤ hpcm = 0.7H ≤ 0.75H) and plate spacing (0.15H ≤ hpcm = 0.7H ≤ 0.40H). Different configurations with using water, nanoliquid and nanoliquid+PCM are compared in terms of heat transfer improvement. Thermal performance is improved by using PCM while best performance is achieved with nanoliquid and PCM installed configuration. At Re=100 and Re=300, heat transfer improvements of 26% and 25.5% are achieved with nanoliquid+PCM system as compared to water without PCM. Height of the PCM layer also influences the heat transfer dynamic behavior while there is 12.6% variation in the spatial average heat transfer of the target surface with the lowest and highest PCM height while discharging time increases by about 76.5%. As the spacing between the plates decreases, average heat transfer rises and there is 38% variation.

Abstract In this work, we study the heat transfer performance and particle dynamics of a highly mass loaded, compressible, particle-laden flow in a horizontally-oriented pipe using an Eulerian-Eulerian (two-fluid) computational model. An attendant experimental configuration [1] provides the basis for the study. Specifically, a 17 bar co-flow of nitrogen gas and copper powder are modeled with inlet Reynolds numbers of 3×104, 4.5×104, and 6×104 and mass loadings of 0, 0.5, and 1.0. Eight binned particle sizes were modeled to represent the known powder properties. Significant settling of all particle groups are observed leading to asymmetric temperature distributions. Wall and core flow temperature distributions are observed to agree well with measurements. In high Reynolds number cases, the predictions of the multiphase computational model were satisfactorily aligned with the experimental results. Low Reynolds number model predictions were not as consistent with the experimental measurements.

The field of electronic device applications is becoming more and more extensive. With the development of science and technology and the improvement of the integration of electronic components, local heating is becoming more and more serious. If heat cannot be discharged immediately, it will cause heat to accumulate, causing the temperature of each component to exceed the limit. The reliability of electronic equipment is greatly reduced. Especially in important fields such as military and aerospace, the thermal reliability of electronic components is higher. The research results show that increasing the Reynolds number is helpful to reduce the overall temperature and thermal resistance of the heat sink, but the increase of the Reynolds number and the decrease of the thermal resistance value are gradually flat. The design concept of material reduction has a significant impact on processing and cost. The results of this article show that selecting the appropriate heat sink fins and matching the specific Reynolds number can effectively improve the heat transfer performance of the heat sink.
