Flow Effects

Data which illustrate the effects of hole spacing on the heat transfer from an array of jets impinging on a flat plate are presented. Considered are Reynolds numbers ranging from 8200, to 30500, and Mach numbers from 0.1 to 0.2. The spacing of the holes used to produce the impinging jets is either 8D or 12D in both the streamwise and spanwise directions. Local and spatially-averaged Nusselt numbers show strong dependence on the impingement jet Reynolds number for both situations. Experimental results show that local Nusselt numbers show some dependence on the Mach number for the smaller jet hole spacing, with negligible dependence for the larger jet hole spacing. This is partially a result of the accumulating cross-flows produced by the jets, as well as the interactions of the vortex structures which initially form around the jets, and then impact and interact as they advect away from stagnation points along the impingement target surface. Spatially-averaged Nusselt numbers generally decrease as x/D increases when hole spacing is 8D, whereas Nusselt numbers are generally about constant as x/D increases when hole spacing is 12D. This is partially due to cross-flow effects, as well as behavior of each jet in the array, which is similar to that of a single, isolated jet for the larger hole spacing. Spatially-averaged Nusselt numbers for 8D jet hole spacing are also often higher than values for the 12D jet hole spacing when compared at the same x/D location.

Data which illustrate the effects of jet-to-target plate distance and Reynolds number on the heat transfer from an array of jets impinging on a flat plate are presented. Considered are Reynolds numbers Rej ranging from 8,200, to 52,000, with isentropic jet Mach numbers of approximately 0.1 to 0.2. Jet-to-target plate distances Z of 1.5D, 3.0D, 5.0D, and 8.0D are employed, where D is the impingement hole diameter. Steamwise and spanwise hole spacings are 8D. Local and spatially-averaged Nusselt numbers show strong dependence on the impingement jet Reynolds number for all situations examined. Experimental results also illustrate the dependence of local Nusselt numbers on normalized jet-to-target plate distance, especially for smaller values of this quantity. The observed variations are partially due to accumulating cross-flows produced as the jets advect downstream, as well as the interactions of the vortex structures which initially form around the jets, and then impact and interact as they advect away from stagnation points along the impingement target surface. The highest spatially-averaged Nusselt numbers are present for Z/D = 3.0 for Rej of 8,200, 20,900, and 30,000. When Rej = 52,000, spatially-averaged Nusselt numbers increase as Z/D decreases, with the highest value present at Z/D = 1.5.

Abstract An experimental study was completed to quantify heat transfer enhancement, pressure loss, and crossflow effect within a channel of inline impinging jets. The jet diameter is 5.08 mm and the jet-to-jet spacing in the streamwise and spanwise directions is fixed at x/d = 11.1 and y/d = 5.9, respectively. The effect of jet-to-target surface spacing was considered with z/d = 3 and 6. For both of the jet-to-target surface spacings, a smooth surface, the reference case, and a surface roughened with partial height pins were investigated. The roughened surface has a staggered array of 120 partial height copper pin fins. The pin to jet diameter and the pin height to diameter ratios are D/d = 0.94 and H/D = 1.6, respectively. Regionally averaged heat transfer coefficient distributions were measured on the target surface, and these distributions were coupled with pressure measurements through the array. The heat transfer augmentation and pressure penalty were investigated over a range of jet Reynolds numbers (10K–70K). The results show high discharge coefficients for all the cases. The channels with the tight jet-to-target surface spacing experience double the cross-flow effect of its increased spacing counterpart. The addition of surface roughness showed a negligible effect on the crossflow. The best heat transfer performance was observed in the impingement channel with the pinned target surface at z/d = 3.

Transfer Study

Impingement heat transfer is significantly affected by initial cross-flow or by the presence of cross-flow from upstream spent jets. In this study, a zero cross-flow design is presented. The zero-crossflow design creates spacing between hole arrays to allow for spent flow to be directed away from impinging jets. Three configurations with different impingement holes placements are studied and compared with pure impingement with spent crossflow cases for the same jet Reynolds number. Three jet Reynolds numbers are studied for Rej = 10000, 20000, and 30000. Detailed heat transfer distributions are obtained using the transient liquid crystal technique. The zero-cross flow design clearly shows minimal degradation of impingement heat transfer due to crossflow compared to conventional design with lower mass flow rate requirement and lesser number of overall impingement holes due to the reduced cross-flow effect on the impingement region.

Effective cooling of modern low NOx combustor liners is achieved through combinations of impingement and other heat transfer enhancement methods. In the present study, a combination of impingement and trip strips is studied to determine the optimum location of trip strips with respect to impingement jet arrays. Heat transfer with pure impingement has degradation downstream due to increased cross-flow effects. To counter the cross-flow induced heat transfer degradation, a combination technique wherein impingement is combined with ribs placed in between impingement rows or downstream of the impingement array is studied. Three configurations with increased rib placements and reduced impingement holes are studied and compared with pure impingement cases for the same jet Reynolds number. Three jet Reynolds numbers are studied for Rej = 10000, 20000, and 30000. Detailed heat transfer distributions are obtained using the transient liquid crystal technique. Results show that the presence of ribs increases jet impingement heat transfer on the surface with lower mass flows. The effectiveness of the combination ribs and impingement can provide higher heat transfer with reduced cooling air requirements.

The purpose of this study is to clarify heat transfer characteristics for the high cooling performance with multiple jet impingement. In the present study, the influence of the interaction among adjacent impinging jets on heat transfer of target surface is experimentally investigated. The study is focused on the effect of jet injection shape on the heat transfer. 3×3 square array of cross-shaped circular jet is tested. Injection distances L are 2 and 4 jet hole diameters, and jet-to-jet spacing S are 4, 6 and 8 jet hole diameters. Experiments are conducted for a constant Reynolds number Re = 4,680 based on the jet hole diameter. Steady state thermochromic liquid crystal technique is employed to measure local and area averaged Nusselt numbers. The flow field is visualized by smoke-wire and oil flow techniques. It is found that the cross-shaped circular jet array improves heat transfer at the intermediate area enclosed by four impinging jets compared to that of circular jet array at the narrow injection distance. In the case of cross-shaped circular jet array, the wall jet produces a stronger turbulence than that of circular jet, which makes the heat transfer push up toward the apex of square detachment line at injection distance L/D = 2 and jet-to-jet spacing S/D = 6 and 8.

Roughened Surface

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.

In the current research of impingement on pin-fin wall, researchers mainly pay attention to macro pin-fin due to the limitation of manufacture. With the development of additive manufacturing, it is possible to manufacture the micro pin-fin. Hence, impingement on micro pin-fin wall becomes a new cooling technique that has attracted the researchers’ attention. With experimental methodology, the investigation utilizes different jet to target distance, micro pin-fin shapes, height and Reynolds number for impingement cooling augmentation to illustrate the effects on jet array impingement heat transfer. The area-averaged target surface heat transfer coefficient distributions are measured with lumped capacitance method. The impingement hole diameter (D) is 4 millimeter, with streamwise and spanwise jet-to-jet spacing 4D. Considered are effects of jet to target plate distance (Z/D:0.75,3), micro pin-fin shapes (rectangle, pentahedron), and pin-fin height (h/D:0.05,0.2,0.4). In total, ten different test surfaces are considered (smooth surface included). Tests are performed at impingement jet Reynolds numbers from 2000 to 10000 for configuration of Z/D = 0.75, from 5000–20000 for configuration of Z/D = 3. The experimental results illustrate that there are significant heat transfer augmentation (30%–120% more than baseline flow condition) with micro pin-fin on impingement target surface, and discharge coefficient is almost the same.

Detailed heat transfer distributions are presented inside a two-pass coolant square channel connected by two rows of holes on the divider walls. The enhanced cooling is achieved by a combination of impingement and crossflow-induced swirl. Three configurations are examined where the cross flow is generated from one coolant passage to the adjoining coolant passage through a series of straight and angled holes and a two-dimensional slot placed along the dividing wall. The holes/slots deliver the flow from one passage to another typically achieved in a conventional design by a 180° U-bend. Heat transfer distributions will be presented on the sidewalls of the passages. A transient liquid crystal technique is applied to measure the detailed heat transfer coefficient distributions inside the passages. Results for the three hole supply cases are compared with the results from the traditional 180° turn passage for three channel flow Reynolds numbers ranging between 10000 and 50000. Results show that the new feed system, from first pass to second pass using crossflow injection holes, produce significantly higher Nusselt numbers on the second pass walls. The heat transfer enhancement in the second pass of these channels are as high as 2–3 times greater than that obtained in the second pass for a channel with a 180° turn. Results are also compared with channels that have only one row of discharge holes.
