    Application of green’s function to establish a technique in predicting jet impingement convective heat transfer rate from transient temperature measurements
    (Pleiades journals, 2019) Parida, R.K.; Kadam, A.R.; Hindasageri, V.; Madav, V.
    Jet impingement heat transfer has gained attention of the researchers due to its very high rate of convective heat transfer. The objective of this study is to establish an analytical technique to predict the convective heat transfer coefficient and the reference temperature over a surface being impinged. This technique is based on the fundamental mathematical concept of Green’s function. A code in MATLAB is developed to predict both local convective heat transfer coefficient and reference temperature over the impinging surface, which requires the transient temperature data at both faces of the impinging plate as input. Radiation correction is also considered to incorporate radiation losses in high-temperature applications. This code works on the principle of one-dimensional heat transfer across the impinging plate, for known dimensions, thermal diffusivity, and surface emissivity. A numerical simulation of hot jet at Reynolds number equal to 1000, over a cold plate of thickness 10 mm, is carried out for a given set of spatially varying convective heat transfer coefficient and reference temperature values, along the impinging surface. The impinging plate is considered to be orthotropic to ensure one-dimensional heat conduction across the plate thickness. Transient temperature at both the faces for a duration of 10 s with an interval of one second was recorded and used as input to the code to validate the proposed technique. Local heat transfer coefficient and the reference temperature predicted are in good agreement with those input values for numerical analysis using ANSYS, having a maximum deviation of 2 and 10%, respectively. Further, it is observed that estimated values of convective heat flux at a given location on the impinging surface varies linearly with temperature at the same location, which confirms Newton’s law of cooling. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2019.

    Heat transfer distribution of impinging flame and air jets - A comparative study
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2016) Kadam, A.R.; Tajik, A.R.; Hindasageri, V.
    Heat transfer distribution of impinging flame jet is compared with that of the impinging air jet based on the experimental data reported in literature for methane-air flame jet and air jet impingement for Reynolds number, R=600-1400 and the non-dimensional nozzle tip to impingement plate distance, Z/d=2-6. The comparative data based on mapping experimental data reported in literature suggest that there is a good agreement between the Nusselt numbers for higher Z/d near stagnation region. However, away from the stagnation region, the Nusselt number for flame jet is higher than that of air jet for similar operating conditions of Re and Z/d. A CFD simulation for impinging air jet and impinging flame jet is carried out to explain the physics and reason for the deviations observed in experimental data. A scale analysis is carried out to identify the dominant forces and their influence on the heat transfer distribution on the impingement plate. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
