Gas quenching is a relatively new process with several important advantages, such as minimal environmental impact, clean products, and ability to control the cooling locally and temporally for best product properties. To meet the high cooling rates required for quenching, the cooling gas must flow at very high velocities, and such flows are highly turbulent and separated. Consequently, there is...

Thermal loading o f diesel engine pistons has increased dramatically in recent years due to applications of various technologies to meet low emission and high power requirements. Control of piston temperatures by cooling of these pistons has become one of the determining factors in a successful engine design. The pistons are cooled by oil jets fired at the underside from the crankcase. Any unde...

The purpose of the present study is to clarify the heat transfer characteristics with multiple jet impingement aiming at the highly efficient cooling performance. In the study, we investigated the effect of injection parameters on circular jet array impingement heat transfer. As we focus on interference among the adjacent impinging jets, tests are mainly conducted at the minimum crossflow condi...

A thermal characterization study of laminar air jet impingement cooling of electronic components within a geometry representative of the CPU compartment of a typical portable computer is reported. A finite control volume technique was used to solve for the velocity and temperature fields. Convection, conduction and radiation effects were included in the simulations. The range of jet Reynolds nu...

jet impingement heat transfer is an effective and practical approach that is employed in many industrial processes where heating, cooling, or drying is required. details of the heat or mass transfer rate have been investigated both experimentally and numerically and can be found in the published literature. in most of the numerical studies, control-volume approach has been employed to solve the...

The long-term species diversity patterns in marine fish communities are garnering increasing attention from ecologists and conservation biologists. However, current databases on quantitative abundance information lack consistent long-term time series, which are particularly important in exploring the possible underlying mechanism of community changes and evaluating the effectiveness of biodiver...

Accelerated cooling (ACC) is one of the key processing steps in production Advanced High Performance Steels. In order to obtain thermo-mechanically controlled processed (TMCP) steel products with desired microstructures and mechanical properties, it necessary properly adjust parameters facility, therefore critically important quantify physical process heat removal by applying water jets on hot ...

A new hybrid cooling scheme is proposed for high-flux thermal management of electronic and power devices. This scheme combines the cooling benefits of micro-channel flow and micro-jet impingement with those of indirect refrigeration cooling. Experiments were performed to assess single-phase cooling performance using HFE 7100 as working fluid. Excellent predictions were achieved using the standa...
