Mist cooling for thermal tempering of glass.

Sprinkler and mist irrigation for cooling lettuce:effectiveness and economic cosideration

Calibration of CFD Model for Mist/Steam Impinging Jets Cooling

In the heavy-frame advanced turbine systems, steam is used as a coolant for turbine blade cooling. The concept of injecting mist into the impinging jets of steam was experimentally proved as an effective way of significantly enhancing the cooling effectiveness in the laboratory under low pressure and temperature conditions. However, whether mist/steam cooling is applicable under actual gas turb...

Effects of Various Modeling Schemes on Mist Film Cooling Simulation

Numerical simulation is performed in this study to explore filmcooling enhancement by injecting mist into the cooling air with a focus on investigating the effect of various modeling schemes on the simulation results. The effect of turbulence models, dispersed-phase modeling, inclusion of different forces (Saffman, thermophoresis, and Brownian), trajectory tracking, and mist injection scheme is...

Simulation of Film Cooling Enhancement with Mist Injection

Cooling of gas turbine hot section components such as combustor liners, combustor transition pieces, turbine vanes (nozzles) and blades (buckets) is a critical task for improving the life and reliability of hotsection components. Conventional cooling techniques using air-film cooling, impingement jet cooling, and turbulators have significantly contributed to cooling enhancements in the past. Ho...

Simulation of Mist Film Cooling on Rotating Gas Turbine Blades

Film cooling technique has been successfully applied to gas turbine blades to prevent it from the hot flue gas. However, a continuous demand of increasing the turbine inlet temperature to raise the efficiency of the turbine requires continuous improvement in film cooling effectiveness. The concept of injecting mist (tiny water droplets) into the cooling fluid has been proven under laboratory co...
