The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Experimental investigation on heat transfer mechanism of air–water mist jet impingement cooling on a heated cylinder is presented. The target cylinder was electrically heated and was maintained under the boiling temperature of water. Parametric studies were carried out for four different values of mist loading fractions, Reynolds numbers, and nozzle-to-surface spacings. Reynolds number, Rehyd, defined based on the hydraulic diameter, was varied from 8820 to 17,106; mist loading fraction, f ranges from 0.25% to 1.0%; and nozzle-to-surface spacing, H/d was varied from 30 to 60. The increment in the heat transfer coefficient with respect to air-jet impingement is presented along with variation in the heat transfer coefficient along the axial and circumferential direction. It is observed that the increase in mist loading greatly increases the heat transfer rate. Increment in the heat transfer coefficient at the stagnation point is found to be 185%, 234%, 272%, and 312% for mist loading fraction 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1.0%, respectively. Experimental study shows identical increment in stagnation point heat transfer coefficient with increasing Reynolds number, with lowest Reynolds number yielding highest increment. Stagnation point heat transfer coefficient increased 263%, 259%, 241%, and 241% as compared to air-jet impingement for Reynolds number 8820, 11,493, 14,166, and 17,106, respectively. The increment in the heat transfer coefficient is observed with a decrease in nozzle-to-surface spacing. Stagnation point heat transfer coefficient increased 282%, 248%, 239%, and 232% as compared to air-jet impingement for nozzle-to-surface spacing of 30, 40, 50, and 60, respectively, is obtained from the experimental analysis. Based on the experimental results, a correlation for stagnation point heat transfer coefficient increment is also proposed.

Abstract Jet impingement is a cooling technique commonly employed in combustor liner cooling and high-pressure gas turbine blades. However, jets from upstream impingement holes reduce the effectiveness of downstream jets due to jet deflection in the direction of crossflow. In order to avoid this phenomenon and provide an enhanced cooling on the target surface, we have attempted to come up with a novel design called “crossflow diverters”. Crossflow diverters are U-shaped ribs that are placed between jets in the crossflow direction (under maximum crossflow condition). In this study, the baseline case is jet impingement onto a smooth surface with 10 rows of jet impingement holes, jet-to-jet spacing of X/D = Y/D = 6 and jet-to-target spacing of Z/D = 2. Crossflow diverters with thickness ‘t’ of 1.5875 mm, height ‘h’ of 2D placed in the streamwise direction at a distance of X = 2D from center of the jet have been investigated experimentally. Transient liquid crystal thermography technique has been used to obtain detailed measurement of heat transfer coefficient for four jet diameter based Reynolds numbers of 3500, 5000, 7500, 12000. It has been observed that crossflow diverters protect the downstream jets from upstream jet deflection thereby maximizing their stagnation cooling potential. An average of 15–30% enhancement in Nusselt number is obtained over the flow range tested. However, this comes at the expense of increase in pumping power. Pressure drop for the enhanced geometry is 1–1.5 times the pressure drop for baseline impingement case. At a constant pumping power, crossflow diverters produce 9–15% enhancement in heat transfer coefficient as compared to baseline smooth case.

Good Agreement

A confined jet impingement configuration has been investigated in which the matter of interest is the convective heat transfer from the airflow to the passage walls. The geometry is similar to gas turbine applications. The setup is distinct from usual cooling passages by the fact that no crossflow and no bulk flow direction are present. The flow exhausts through two staggered rows of holes opposing the impingement wall. Hence, a complex 3-D vortex system arises, which entails a complex heat transfer situation. The transient Thermochromic Liquid Crystal (TLC) method was used to measure the heat transfer on the passage walls. Due to the nature of the experiment, the fluid as well as the wall temperature vary with location and time. As a prerequisite of the transient TLC technique, the heat transfer coefficient is assumed to be constant over the transient experiment. Therefore, additional measures were taken to qualify this assumption. The linear relation between heat flux and temperature difference could be verified for all measurement sites. This validates the assumption of a constant heat transfer coefficient which was made for the transient TLC experiments. Nusselt number evaluations from all techniques show a good agreement, considering the respective uncertainty ranges. For all sites the Nusselt numbers range within ±9% of the values gained from the TLC measurement.

Conduction Model

Abstract Liquid crystal thermography and infrared thermography techniques are typically employed to measure detailed surface temperatures, where local heat transfer coefficient (HTC) values are calculated by employing suitable conduction models. One such practice, which is very popular and easy to use, is the transient liquid crystal thermography using one-dimensional semi-infinite conduction model. In these experiments, a test surface with low thermal conductivity and low thermal diffusivity (e.g. acrylic) is used where a step-change in coolant air temperature is induced and surface temperature response is recorded. An error minimization routine is then employed to guess heat transfer coefficients of each pixel, where wall temperature evolution is known through an analytical expression. The assumption that heat flow in the solid is essentially in one-dimension, often leads to errors in HTC determination and this error depends on true HTC, wall temperature evolution and HTC gradient. A representative case of array jet impingement under maximum crossflow condition has been considered here. This heat transfer enhancement concept is widely used in gas turbine leading edge and electronics cooling. Jet impingement is a popular cooling technique which results in high convective heat rates and has steep gradients in heat transfer coefficient distribution. In this paper, we have presented a procedure for solution of three-dimensional transient conduction equation using alternating direction implicit method and an error minimization routine to find accurate heat transfer coefficients at relatively lower computational cost. The HTC results obtained using 1D semi-infinite conduction model and 3D conduction model were compared and it was found that the heat transfer coefficient obtained using the 3D model was consistently higher than the conventional 1D model by 3–16%. Significant deviations, as high as 8–20% in local heat transfer at the stagnation points of the jets were observed between h1D and h3D.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

This paper describes a detailed experimental investigation of narrow jet impingement channel with surface features. Three novel surface features: aerofoil shaped dimple cavities on the target plate, chevron elements extending between the jet issuing plate and the target plate and 45 degree wedges mounted on the jet-issuing plate, are proposed. The narrow rectangular channel is 254 mm × 57.2 mm × 19.1 mm (10” × 2.25” × 0.75”) in dimensions and consists of five jets with a constant diameter, D of 9.525 mm (0.375”). The inter-jet spacing and jet-to-target plate distance is 4D and 2D, respectively. Three test cases with different novel surface features are proposed, and the effect of these surface features on the distribution of heat transfer coefficient on the target plate is characterized using the transient liquid crystal technique. In the first test case, dimpulated surface features are introduced on the target plate. The second case consists of chevron elements which extend between the jet issuing plate and the target plate, while the third case has 45 degree wedges mounted on the jet-issuing plate. The smooth jet impingement channel is used as a baseline case for comparison of the heat transfer coefficient distribution on the target plate. The Reynolds number is defined based on the jet diameter, D and bulk velocity of the jet. The experiments were performed at Reynolds number ranging between 61,000 to 98,000. In order to gain a better insight of the flow field within the channel for each of these features, a steady state numerical simulation was performed for each case using the commercially available software, ANSYS CFX. The boundary conditions for these simulations were set as close to the experimental conditions as possible. For turbulence closure, the Shear Stress Transport (SST) model was used which has been shown to be reasonably accurate with moderate computational costs. The numerical results are in favorable trend compared to the values obtained through experimentation. However, in certain regions, the SST turbulence model has overpredicted the heat transfer coefficient values. The results show that the first test case with dimpulated surface features exhibits the highest heat transfer enhancement among all the tested configurations. This enhancement is approximately 25 percent higher than that of the baseline case. The presence of the chevron elements has minimized the deflection of the jets due to crossflow, but, inhibited the spreading of the impinging jets on the target plate. This, in turn, has reduced the local heat transfer performance quite substantially. In case of the 45 degree wedges, the heat transfer enhancement was augmented at the downstream, which was ultimately caused by the diversion of the crossflow towards the target plate.

The primary focus of this paper is the conjugate heat transfer during vertical impingement of a two-dimensional (slot) submerged confined liquid jet using liquid ammonia as the working fluid. Numerical model for the heat transfer process has been developed. The solid region has been modeled along with the fluid region as a conjugate problem. Discrete heat sources have been used to study the overall effect on convective heat transfer. Simulation of discrete heat sources was done by introducing localized heat fluxes at various locations and their magnitudes being varied. Simulations are performed for two different substrate materials namely silicon and stainless steel. The equations solved in the liquid region included the conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and conservation of energy. In the solid region, only the energy equation, which reduced to the heat conduction equation, had to be solved. The solid-fluid interface temperature showed a strong dependence on several geometric, fluid flow, and heat transfer parameters. The Nusselt number increased with Reynolds number. For a given flow rate, a higher heat transfer coefficient was obtained with smaller slot width and lower impingement height. For a constant Reynolds number, jet impingement height and plate thickness, a wider opening of the slot provided higher average heat transfer coefficient and higher average Nusselt number. A higher average heat transfer coefficient was seen at a smaller thickness, whereas a thicker plate provided a more uniform distribution of heat transfer coefficient. Higher thermal conductivity substrates also provided a more uniform heat distribution.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Synthetic jets are piezo-driven, small-scale, pulsating devices capable of producing highly turbulent jets formed by periodic entrainment and expulsion of the fluid in which they are embedded. The compactness of these devices accompanied by high air velocities provides an exciting opportunity to significantly reduce the size of thermal management systems in electronic packages. A number of researchers have shown the implementations of synthetic jets on heat transfer applications; however, there exists no correlation to analytically predict the heat transfer coefficient for such applications. A closed form correlation was developed to predict the heat transfer coefficient as a function of jet geometry, position, and operating conditions for impinging flow based on experimental data. The proposed correlation was shown to predict the synthetic jet impingement heat transfer within 25% accuracy for a wide range of operating conditions and geometrical variables.

In this paper, coupling the air jet impingement and the copper metal foam above flowing liquid film were employed to enhance the heat transfer. The thickness of flowing liquid film can be controlled owing to the application of the metal foam above the film, and its solid matrix extends the air-liquid-solid interface of heating surface. The evaporated water can be supplied by the capillary force in the porous layer. The experiments were conducted to investigate the performances of the flowing liquid film with inserted porous layer subjected to impinging jet air. The air jet velocity, the flow rate and thicknesses of the liquid film as well as the porosity of metal foam influence the surface temperature of heated wall and the corresponding local heat transfer coefficient greatly. The change ratios of heat transfer coefficient due to the above factors were presented. More cooling can be obtained on the heated wall in the flowing liquid film with inserted porous layer subjected to impinging jet air while the higher liquid film velocity and air jet velocity, the thinner liquid film and the lower porosity of metal foam occur.

Abstract Empirical correlations are developed for rewetting velocity and maximum heat transfer coefficient during rewetting phase of single hot vertical Fuel Pin Simulator (FPS) by using radial jet impingement and falling film. Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) has been designed for Advance Heavy water Reactor (AHWR) to rewet the hot fuel pin under the loss of coolant accident. Coolant injection takes place from a water rod which is located at the center of the fuel bundle in form of jets to rewet hot surface of fuel pin under loss of coolant accident. This kind of design to reflood the fuel bundle is different than bottom and top spray reflooding practiced in PWR and BWR type of nuclear reactors. There are two different kinds of rewetting found during radial jet induced cooling. The first one is due to radial jet impingement and the second one is due to falling film which is below the jet impingement point. Rewetting velocity has been predicted along the length of fuel pin due to radial jet impingement cooling. Temperature of FPS has been varied from 400°C to 700°C with help of different powers supply, simulating decay heat of reactor. A variation of coolant radial jet mass flow rate is from 0.5 lpm to 1.8 lpm. It is considered during ECCS injection. It has been observed from the experiments that rewetting velocity decreases with increasing the clad surface temperature and increases with increasing the coolant mass flow rate. The rewetting velocity in falling film is found to be nearly 1.8 times higher than rewetting velocity predicted in circumferential direction. Further, it is found that maximum heat transfer coefficient increases with increasing the radial jet coolant mass flow rate. The maximum heat transfer coefficient in case of radial jet impingement is found to be nearly 1.5 times the falling film rewetting. Developed correlation predicts the maximum heat transfer coefficient with experimental data well within the error band of ±10%.
