A mathematical model used for studying jet impingement cooling characteristics is established, and the rationality of the calculation model and method is confirmed by the experimental data. The CFX software is used to numerically simulate the jet impingement cooling characteristics on a gas turbine blade. The effects of various parameters, such as the arrays of impinging nozzles, the jet Reynolds number, the jet-to-jet distance, the ratio of nozzle-to-surface spacing to jet diameter H/d, and the radius of curvature of the target surface, on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a impingement cooling process are studied. The results indicate that the impingement jets can make complex vortex in the cooling channel, the flow boundary layer is extremely thin and highly turbulent. Underneath each impingement nozzle, there will appear a low temperature area and a peak of Nusselt number on the impingement target surface, the distribution of temperature and Nusselt number on the target surface are associated with arrangement of impingement nozzles. The average Nusselt number of the in-line arrangement nozzles is higher than that of the staggered arrangement ones. With the increasing of jet Reynolds number, the velocity impinging on the target surface and Nusselt number increase. However, heat transfer of impingement cooling on target surface is not sensitive to the jet nozzles distance; the velocity impinging on the target surface and Nusselt number decrease with the increasing of the H/d value. For the curved target surface cases, the average Nusselt number of the target surface and the effect of heat transfer decreased with the increasing of curvature radius R.

Nanoparticle Shapes

Numerical study of jet impingement cooling of a corrugated surface with water–SiO2 nanofluid of different nanoparticle shapes was performed. The bottom wall is corrugated and kept at constant surface temperature, while the jet emerges from a rectangular slot with cold uniform temperature. The finite volume method is utilized to solve the governing equations. The effects of Reynolds number (between 100 and 500), corrugation amplitude (between 0 and 0.3), corrugation frequency (between 0 and 20), nanoparticle volume fraction (between 0 and 0.04), and nanoparticle shapes (spherical, blade, brick, and cylindrical) on the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics were studied. Stagnation point and average Nusselt number enhance with Reynolds number and solid particle volume fraction for both flat and corrugated surface configurations. An optimal value for the corrugation amplitude and frequency was found to maximize the average heat transfer at the highest value of Reynolds number. Among various nanoparticle shapes, cylindrical ones perform the best heat transfer characteristics in terms of stagnation and average Nusselt number values. At the highest solid volume concentration of the nanoparticles, heat transfer values are higher for a corrugated surface when compared to a flat surface case.

The present study experimentally and numerically investigates the effect of channel height on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a channel impingement cooling configuration for various jet Reynolds numbers in the range of 2000–8600. A single array consisting of eleven jets with 0.8 mm diameter injects water into the channel with 2 mm width at four different channel heights (3, 4, 5, and 6 mm). The average heat transfer coefficients at the target surface are measured by maintaining a temperature difference between the jet exit and the target surface in the range of 15–17 °C for each channel height. The experimental results show the average heat transfer coefficient at the target surface increases with the jet Reynolds number and decreases with the channel height. An average Nusselt number correlation is developed based on 85 experimentally measured data points with a mean absolute error of less than 4.31%. The numerical simulation accurately predicts the overall heat transfer rate within 10% error. The numerical results are analyzed to investigate the flow structure and its effect on the local heat transfer characteristics. The present study advances the primary understanding of the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the channel impingement cooling configuration with liquid jets.

This study presents results for flow and heat transfer characteristics of two-dimensional rectangular impinging jets and three-dimensional circular impinging jets. Flow geometries under consideration are single and multiple impinging jets issued from a plane wall. Both confined and unconfined configurations are simulated. Effects of Reynolds number and the distance between the jets are investigated. Results are obtained with a finite volume computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. Structured grids are used in all cases of the present study. Turbulence is treated with a two equation k-ε model. Different jet velocities have been examined corresponding to Reynolds numbers of 5,000 to 20,000. Results of the three-dimensional cases show that Reynolds number has no effect on the velocity distribution of the center jet. Results of both two-dimensional and three-dimensional cases show that Reynolds number highly affects the heat transfer and values of the Nusselt number. The maximum Nusselt number was always found at the stagnation point of the center jet.

Abstract In this paper, the heat transfer performance of single jet impinging conical surface is investigated based on transient liquid crystal experiments. Because of different target surface structures, impingement heat transfer will have different heat transfer characteristics. In order to better understand the heat transfer mechanism of the impinging conical target surface, this paper studies the three jet Reynolds number (Re) ranged from 25000 to 70000, three the dimensionless nozzle-to-surface distance (H/D) from 0.75 to 6 on heat transfer characteristics. The liquid crystal thermal imaging technology is used in the experiment to obtain the heat transfer efficiency of jet heat transfer on the conical target surface. The research in this paper shows that the larger the jet Reynolds number, the larger the Nusselt number at the stagnation point. It is worth noting that the maximum Nusselt number is not necessarily obtained at the stagnation point. When Re = 70000 and H/D = 0.75, the maximum value of the Nusselt number is 1.24 times the stagnation point. The larger the Reynolds number, the smaller the impingement distance, and the more obvious the secondary maxima. At the same impingement distance, when the Reynolds number is larger, the position of the secondary maxima appears earlier. When Re = 25000, H/D = 3.5, 6 and Re = 45000, H/D = 6, the local Nusselt number monotonously decreases from the maximum value at the stagnation point along the flow, and it appears secondary maxima in other experimental conditions. Within the scope of this study, the overall heat transfer performance is better when the dimensionless distance between the jet hole and the target surface is 3.5.

In this study, effects of extended jet holes to heat transfer and flow characteristics of jet impingement cooling were numerically investigated. Cross-flow in the impinging jet cooling adversely affects the heat transfer on the target surface. The main purpose of this study is to reduce the negative effect of cross-flow on heat transfer by extending jet holes toward the target surface with nozzles. This study has been conducted under turbulent flow condition (15,000 ≤ Re  ≤  45,000). The surface of the turbine blade, which is the target surface, has been modeled as a flat plate. The effect of the ribs, placed on the target surface, on the heat transfer has been also investigated, and the results were compared with the flat surface. The parameters such as average and local Nusselt numbers on the target surface, flow characteristics, and compressor power have been examined in detail. It was obtained from the numerical results that the average Nusselt number increases with decreasing the gap between the target surface and the nozzle. In addition, the higher average Nusselt number was obtained on the flat surface than the ribbed surface. The lowest compressor power was achieved in the 5Dj nozzle gap for the flat surface and in the 4Dj nozzle gap for the ribbed surface.

By using the CFX software, the three-dimensional flow and heat transfer characteristics in the cooling duct with pin-fin in the blade trailing edge were numerically simulated. The effects of pin-fin arrangements, Reynolds number, steam superheat degrees, streamwise pin density and convergence angle of the wedge duct on the flow and heat transfer characteristics were analysed. The results show that the Nusselt number on the endwall and pin-fin surfaces as well as the pin-fin row averaged Nusselt number increase with the increasing of Reynolds number, while it decreased with the with the increasing of X/D. The pressure drop increases with the increasing of Reynolds number while decreases with the increasing of X/D in the wedge duct. The degree of superheat has little effect on the pressure loss in the wedge duct. A comprehensive analysis and comparison show that the highest thermal performance is reached in the wedge duct when the value of X/D is 1.5.

In the present study, an experimental investigation has been carried out to analyze the heat transfer characteristics of CuO–water nanofluids jet on a hot surface. A rectangular stainless steel foil (AISI-304, 0.15 mm thick) used as the test surface is electrically heated to obtain the required initial temperature (500 °C). The distribution of surface heat flux on the target surface is evaluated from the recorded thermal images during transient cooling. The effect of nanoparticle concentration and Reynolds number of the nanofluids on the heat transfer characteristics is studied. Tests are performed for varied range of Reynolds number (5000 ≤ Re ≤ 12,000), two different CuO–water nanofluids concentration (Ф = 0.15%, 0.6%) and two different nozzle to plate distance (l/d = 6, 12). The enhancement in Nusselt number for CuO–water nanofluids was found to be 14% and 90%, for nanofluids concentration of Ф = 0.15% and Ф = 0.60%, respectively, compared to pure water. The test surface characteristics after nanofluids jet impingement are studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM). Based on the investigation, a correlation among various parameters, namely, Reynolds number (Re), Prandtl number (Pr), nozzle to plate distance (l/d), and Nusselt number (Nu), is presented.
