abstract

numerical study has been carried out for slot air jet impingement cooling of horizontal concentric circular cylinders. the slot air jet is situated at the symmetry line of a horizontal cylinder along the gravity vector and impinges to the bottom of the outer cylinder which is designated as θ=0°. the outer cylinder is partially opened at the top with width of w=30mm and is kept at constant temperature t= 62°c. inner cylinder which is a part of the slot jet structure is chosen to be insulated. the effects of jet reynolds number in the range of 100≤ rej ≤1000 and the ratio of spacing between nozzle and outer cylinder surface to the jet width for h=4.2 and h=12.5 on the local and average nusselt numbers are examined. in the numerical study, fluent cfd package is used and validated by comparing the results with the experimental data at the same reynolds number. it is observed that the maximum nusselt number occurs at the stagnation point at (θ=0°) and the local heat transfer coefficient decrease on the circumference of the cylinder with increase of θ as a result of thermal boundary layer thickness growth. also results show that the local and average heat transfer coefficients are raised by increasing the jet reynolds number and by decreasing the nozzle-to-surface spacing.

Mist/Steam Heat Transfer in Confined Slot Jet Impingement

Internal mist/steam blade cooling technology has been considered for the future generation of Advanced Turbine Systems (ATS). Fine water droplets of about 5 mm were carried by steam through a single slot jet onto a heated target surface in a confined channel. Experiments covered Reynolds numbers from 7500 to 25,000 and heat fluxes from 3 to 21 kW/m. The experimental results indicate that the co...

Nanofluid impingement jet heat transfer

Experimental investigation to study the heat transfer between a vertical round alumina-water nanofluid jet and a horizontal circular round surface is carried out. Different jet flow rates, jet nozzle diameters, various circular disk diameters and three nanoparticles concentrations (0, 6.6 and 10%, respectively) are used. The experimental results indicate that using nanofluid as a heat transfer ...

Numerical Simulation of the Laminar Forced Convective Heat Transfer between Two Concentric Cylinders

The dual reciprocity method (DRM) is a highly efficient numerical method of transforming domain integrals arising from the non-homogeneous term of the Poisson equation into equivalent boundary integrals. In this paper, the velocity and temperature fields of laminar forced heat convection in a concentric annular tube, with constant heat flux boundary conditions, have been studied using numerical...

Numerical Investigation of Heat Transfer Performance of Synthetic Jet Impingement onto Dimpled/protrusioned Surface

Dynamic mesh methods and user defined functions are adopted and the shear stress transport k-ω turbulent model has been used in the numerical investigation of heat transfer performance of synthetic jet impingement onto dimple/protrusioned surface. The results show that the local time-averaged Nusselt number of the dimpled/protrusioned target surface tends to be much closer with that of flat cas...
