Experimental investigation is conducted to examine the characteristics of forced convective heat transfer from electronic components, subjected to a confined impinging circular jet of Air and CO2. Parameters such as Heat transfer coefficient, Jet velocities, Nozzle-to-chip spacing (aspect ratio) (H/d) have been studied. Nozzle diameter ranged from 2mm to 8mm. Local heat flux measurements are made with different diameters of jet in the range of Reynolds numbers from 5,000 to 44,000 for CO2 and 2,500 to 23,000 for air. H/d is varied from 3 to 45 for both air and CO2. Variations both in the local heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number are determined as function of Re. Variations of average Nusselt number and local heat flux with time are obtained in a wide range of Re and H/d ratios. The results of the investigation are presented in graphical form and a comparative study of Air and CO2 as coolant is made.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

The first preliminary tests carried on a new experimental rig for measurement of the local heat transfer coefficient inside a circular 0.8 mm diameter minichannel are presented in this paper. The heat transfer coefficient is measured during condensation of R134a and is obtained from the measurement of the heat flux and the direct gauge of the saturation and wall temperatures. The heat flux is derived from the water temperature profile along the channel, in order to get local values for the heat transfer coefficient. The test section has been designed so as to reduce thermal disturbances and experimental uncertainty. A brief insight into the design and the construction of the test rig is reported in the paper. The apparatus has been designed for experimental tests both in condensation and vaporization, in a wide range of operating conditions and for a wide selection of refrigerants.

Local Heat Flux

Convective heat transfer over surfaces is generally presented in the form of the heat-transfer coefficient (h) or its nondimensional form, the Nusselt number (Nu). Both require the specification of the free-stream temperature (Too) or the bulk (Tb) temperature, which are clearly defined only for simple configurations. For complicated configurations with flow separation and multiple temperature streams, the physical significance of Too and Tb becomes unclear. In addition, their use could cause the local h to approach positive or negative infinity if Too or Tb is nearly the same as the local wall temperature (Twall). In this paper, a new Nusselt number, referred to as the SCS number, is proposed, that provides information on the local heat flux but does not use h and hence by-passes the need to define Too or Tb. CFD analysis based on steady RANS with the shear-stress transport model is used to compare and contrast the SCS number with Nu for two test problems: (1) compressible flow and heat transfer in a straight duct with a circular cross section and (2) compressible flow and heat transfer in a high-aspect ratio rectangular duct with a staggered array of pin fins. Parameters examined include: Reynolds number at the duct inlet (3,000 to 15,000 for the circular duct and 15,000 and 150,000 for the rectangular duct), wall temperature (Twall = 373 K to 1473 K for the circular duct and 313 K and 1,173 K for the rectangular duct), and distance from of the inlet of the duct (up to 100D for the circular duct and up to 156D for the rectangular duct). For the circular duct, Nu was found to decrease rapidly from the duct inlet until reaching a minimum and then to rise until reaching a nearly constant value in the “fully” developed region if the wall is heating the gas. If the wall is cooling the gas, then Nu has a constant positive slope in the “fully” developed region. The location of the minimum in Nu and where Nu becomes nearly constant in value or in slope are strong functions of Twall. For the SCS number, the decrease from the duct inlet is monotonic with a negative slope, whether the wall is heating or cooling the gas. Also, different SCS curves for different Twall approach each other as the distance from the inlet increases. For the rectangular duct, Nu tends to oscillate about a constant value in the pin-fin region, whereas SCS tends to oscillate about a line with a negative slope. For both test problems, the variation of SCS is not more complicated than Nu, but SCS yields the local heat flux without need for Tb, a parameter that is hard to define and measure for complicated problems.

Transfer Coefficients

One of the main challenges of spray cooling technology is the prediction of local and average heat transfer coefficients on the heater surface. It is hypothesized that the local heat transfer coefficient can be predicted from the local normal pressure produced by the spray. In this study, hollow cone, full cone, and flat fan sprays, operated at three standoff distances, five spray pressures, and two nozzle orientations, were used to identify the relation between the impingement pressure and the heat transfer coefficient in the single-phase regime. PF-5060, PAO-2, and PSF-3 were used as test fluids, resulting in Prandtl number variation between 12 and 76. A microheater array operated at constant temperature was used to measure the local heat flux. A separate test rig was used to make impingement pressure measurements for the same geometry and spray pressure. The heat flux data were then compared with the corresponding impingement pressure data to develop a pressure-based correlation for spray cooling heat transfer. The maximum deviation between the experimental data and prediction was within ±25%.

Local Heat Flux

Consideration is given to the fully developed heat-transfer characteristics for longitudinal laminar flow between cylinders arranged in an equilateral triangular array. The analysis is carried out for the condition of uniform heat transfer per unit length. Solutions are obtained for the temperature distribution, and from these, Nusselt numbers are derived for a wide range of spacing-to-diameter ratios. It is found that as the spacing ratio increases, so also does the wall-to-bulk temperature difference for a fixed heat transfer per unit length. Corresponding to a uniform surface temperature around the circumference of a cylinder, the circumferential variation of the local heat flux is computed. For spacing ratios of 1.5 ∼ 2.0 and greater, uniform peripheral wall temperature and uniform peripheral heat flux are simultaneously achieved. A simplified analysis which neglects circumferential variations is also carried out, and the results are compared with those from the more exact formulation.

This paper describes a closed-circuit apparatus for the measurement of local heat transfer coefficients from the inner surface and overall friction coefficients for air flowing through an annulus (radius ratio 1.7). Results were obtained for Reynolds numbers from 35 000 to 170 000 for temperature ratios Ti/Tb up to 1.74. A novel type of heater bar was used in order to avoid some of the disadvantages of the more usual designs. The results were very consistent. It was found that the effect of heat flux on the heat transfer coefficient could be eliminated either by the film temperature method using a film temperature coefficient of 0.25 or by including a temperature ratio term ( TiTb)-0.2 in the Nu-Re relationship. Over most of the Reynolds number range the overall friction coefficient did not vary with heat flux.

Heat Transfer Coefficients

The solution of the heat conduction equation in the liquid layer beneath a moving bubble’s base and the resulting local heat transfer coefficient are presented. An analytical model was constructed using separation of variables to solve the heat conduction equation for the thermal profile in the liquid film beneath the base of a bubble moving through a microchannel at a given velocity. Differentiating the resulting liquid thermal profile and applying the standard definition for the local heat transfer coefficient resulted in a solution for local heat transfer coefficient as a function of bubble length. Analysis included varying pertinent parameters such as film thickness beneath the bubble base, wall heat flux, and superheated temperature in the microchannel. Water and FC-72 were analyzed as prospective coolant fluids. Analytical data revealed that as the superheated temperature in the microchannel increases, local heat transfer coefficients increase and arrive at a higher steady-state value. Increasing wall heat flux achieved the same result, while increasing film thickness resulted in lower heat transfer coefficients. The model indicated that water had superior performance as a coolant, provided the dielectric fluid (FC-72) is not mandated.

One Dimensional

A one-dimensional analytical solution has been derived for unsteady heat conduction within a semi infinite body, of high thermal resistance, that is subject to a surface heat flux that varies periodically with time. The heat flux is assumed to be generated within a thin isothermal coating. The model predicts that a phase delay will develop between the heat flux and the coating thermal response. This phase delay is independent upon the material properties of the substrate and coating, on the heat flux driving frequency, and on the local heat transfer, coefficient. With the exception of this last quantity the other parameters are known a priori, hence if the phase delay can be measured experimentally it can then be used to determine the local heat transfer coefficient. Absolute values of the local coating temperature and local heat flux are not required. Hence calibration of the devices for measuring these quantities should not be required. In contrast to the overall surface temperature, it is predicted that the phase delay angle will attain a steady-state value within a few heat flux cycles, thus reducing the time required obtaining a measurement. Furthermore, the one-dimensional mathematical model that has been developed reduces to those used in previous experimentally validated techniques, when appropriate constants in the boundary condition are used.

Local Heat Transfer Coefficient

The influence of rotation and jet mass flow rate on the local heat transfer coefficient for a single confined impinging round jet with a fixed jet-to-wall spacing of H/d = 5 was studied for the jet Reynolds number from 6500 to 26,000 and the rotational Reynolds number from 0 to 112,000. The local heat transfer coefficient along the surface is measured and the effect of the rotation on the stagnation (peak) point, local and average Nusselt number, is presented and discussed. Furthermore, a correlation was developed for the average Nusselt number in terms of the parameters of Rej and ReΩ. In general, the combined jet impingement and rotation effect are shown to affect the heat transfer response. Rotation decreases the average Nusselt number values from 15 to 25 percent in outward and inward radial flow, respectively. Finally, comparisons of the present data with existing results for multijets with rotation were also made.
