Impinging jet is widely used in both traditional industrial and new high-tech fields. High efficiency heat transfer in impinging jet cooling makes it an important method for heat transfer enhancement, in particular in cooling of electronic devices with high heat density. This paper presents an experimental study of heat transfer by an impinging circular water jet. A Constantan foil with the size of 5 mm × 5 mm was used to simulate a microelectronic chip with heat generated by passing an electrical current through the foil. A high heat flux over 106 W/m2 was achieved. The surface temperature was measured by a thermocouple glued onto the back surface of the foil. Both a free surface jet and a submerged jet were investigated. Effect of the nozzle-to-surface spacing as well as the jet speed at the exit of the nozzle on cooling was examined. By positioning the jet away from the center of the heating foil surface, the radial variation of the heat transfer coefficients over the foil was also investigated. Quantitative heat transfer data have been obtained and analyzed.

This paper presents an experimental study of the heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of a single phase high heat flux microchannel cooling system with spiraling radial inflow. The heat sink provides enhanced heat transfer with a simple inlet and outlet design while providing uniform flow distribution. The system is heated from one conducting wall made of copper and uses water as a working fluid. The microchannel has a 1 cm radius and a 300 μm gap height. Experimental results show, on average, a 76% larger pressure drop compared to an analytic model for laminar flow in a parallel disk system with spiral radial inflow. The mean heat transfer coefficients measured are up to four times the heat transfer coefficient for unidirectional laminar fully developed flow between parallel plates with the same gap height. Flow visualization studies indicate the presence of secondary flows and the onset of turbulence at higher flow rates. Combined with the thermally developing nature of the flow, these characteristics lead to enhanced heat transfer coefficients relative to the laminar parallel plate values. Another beneficial feature of this device, for high heat flux cooling applications, is that the thermal gradients on the surface are small. The average variation in surface temperature is 18% of the total bulk fluid temperature gain across the device. The system showed promising cooling characteristics for electronics and concentrated photovoltaics applications with a heat flux of 113 W/cm2 at a surface temperature of 77 °C and a ratio of pumping power to heat rate of 0.03%.

Good Agreement

Heat transfer coefficients were measured for a solution of surfactant drag-reducing additive in the entrance region of a uniformly heated horizontal cylindrical pipe with Reynolds numbers from 25,000 to 140,000 and temperatures from 30to70°C. In the absence of circumferential buoyancy effects, the measured Nusselt numbers were found to be in good agreement with theoretical results for laminar flow. Buoyancy effects, manifested as substantially higher Nusselt numbers, were seen in experiments carried out at high heat flux.

Ir Camera

Experimental work was undertaken to investigate the process by which pool-boiling critical heat flux (CHF) occurs using an IR camera to measure the local temperature and heat transfer coefficients on a heated silicon surface. The wetted area fraction (WF), the contact line length density (CLD), the frequency between dryout events, the lifetime of the dry patches, the speed of the advancing and receding contact lines, the dry patch size distribution on the surface, and the heat transfer from the liquid-covered areas were measured throughout the boiling curve. Quantitative analysis of this data at high heat flux and transition through CHF revealed that the boiling curve can simply be obtained by weighting the heat flux from the liquid-covered areas by WF. CHF mechanisms proposed in the literature were evaluated against the observations.

Abstract A thermoreflectance method to measure wall temperature in two-phase annular flow is described. In high heat flux conditions, momentary dry-out occurs as the liquid film vaporizes, resulting in dramatic decreases in heat transfer coefficient. Simultaneous liquid and vapor thermoreflectance measurements allow calculations of instantaneous and time-averaged heat transfer coefficients. Validation, calibration and uncertainty of the technique are discussed.

Heat Transfer Coefficients

Flow boiling in microchannels has been extensively studied in the past decade. Instabilities, low critical heat flux (CHF) values, and low heat transfer coefficients have been identified as the major shortcomings preventing its implementation in practical high heat flux removal systems. A novel open microchannel design with uniform and tapered manifolds (OMM) is presented to provide stable and highly enhanced heat transfer performance. The effects of the gap height and flow rate on the heat transfer performance have been experimentally studied with water. The critical heat fluxes (CHFs) and heat transfer coefficients obtained with the OMM are significantly higher than the values reported by previous researchers for flow boiling with water in microchannels. A record heat flux of 506 W/cm2 with a wall superheat of 26.2 °C was obtained for a gap size of 0.127 mm. The CHF was not reached due to heater power limitation in the current design. A maximum effective heat transfer coefficient of 290,000 W/m2 °C was obtained at an intermediate heat flux of 319 W/cm2 with a gap of 0.254 mm at 225 mL/min. The flow boiling heat transfer was found to be insensitive to flow rates between 40–333 mL/min and gap sizes between 0.127–1.016 mm, indicating the dominance of nucleate boiling. The OMM geometry is promising to provide exceptional performance that is particularly attractive in meeting the challenges of high heat flux removal in electronics cooling applications.

Transfer Mechanisms

Cooling from impinging jet is nearly compulsory in steel industry processing especially in Run Out Table processing and steel tubes production because of the high heat transfer rates provided by the boiling of the subcooled water jet. As far as metallurgical phase transformations, residual stresses and deformations in the workpiece are concerned, the temperature drop during cooling must be perfectly controlled thanks to a fully understanding of the heat transfer mechanisms. In a previous study [1] the effect of surface to jet velocity ratio on heat transfer has been characterized and it has been shown that this parameter has a significant influence on shoulder of flux collapse. In order to understand the effect of more industrial quench process parameters, an innovative experimental quenching device has been designed and built. It allowed us to make heat transfer measurements at the surface of a hot nickel cylinder impinged by a subcooled water jet, according to several angles of impact and three jet directions against gravity. The results clearly highlight an effect of these two parameters on the heat transfer mechanisms at the surface of the tube. These results allow a better understanding of the origins of temperature heterogeneities inside the tube during the quench.
