investigation on local scour phenomenon downstream of impinging jets is very complicated. different parameters such as geometry of stream, characteristics of flow and sediments have great influences on the scour phenomenon. the present study is preceded to numerical modeling of scouring by impinging jet via ssiim 2 model founded on a physical model tests. the numerical model is calibrated for r...

Background. In clinical color Doppler examinations, mitral regurgitant jets are often observed to impinge on the left atrial wall immediately beyond the mitral valve. In accordance with fluid dynamics theory, we hypothesized that a jet impinging on a wall would lose momentum more rapidly, undergo spatial distortion, and thus have a different observed jet area from that of a free jet with an ide...

Jet impingement has immense applications in industrial cooling, such as glass tempering, turbine blades, electrical equipment, etc. The interplay in-between several jet arrangements and the effect of swirl intensity require enormous study to achieve steady heat transfer. This paper numerically investigates an inline array 25 circular confined swirling air jets impinging vertically on a flat sur...

In this study, we investigate the growth of surf ace disturbances on turbulent liquid jets in air and its relation to the amount of splattering when the jet strikes a target. A laser-based optical technique is used to measure the instantaneous local amplitude of fluctuations on jets produced by fully-turbulent tube nozzles. Measurements were made over the portion of the jet between 0.2 and 45 n...

At present, most of the electronic components are cooled by means of heat sinks attached to them and by blowing air with fans. Unfortunately, this technique does not allow removing very high power without the heat sinks size becoming bulky or the fan becoming too large. An even bigger limitation of direct air-cooling appears when dealing with high heat fluxes, which are common since the chips’ ...

The increasing use of high-pressure water jets in the industry for machining materials yields numerous studies aiming at the optimization of this technology. Since the experimental study of pure or abrasive water jet cutting is complex to carry out, the numerical simulation of this process stands as an attractive alternative. Such a simulation relies on the coupling of numerical tools devoted o...
