The development of high-performance thermal systems has increased interest in heat transfer enhancement techniques. The application of additives to heat transfer liquids is one of the noticeable effort to enhance heat transfer. In this paper two-dimensional unsteady incompressible nanofluid flow in a confined jet at the laminar flow regime is numerically investigated. The Mixture model is consi...

A synthetic jet is one of flow control devices that can topologically disturb surrounding flow field by adding periodic injection and suction of surrounding fluid using an oscillating membrane through an orifice. This device can be applied to the downsized fluid machinery without a net mass injection of fluid for the simplified structure. In this study, the phase-averaged three-dimensional flow...

The present study proposes novel micro-jet impingement heat sink with effusion holes for flow extraction. The design consists of impingement nozzles surrounded by multiple effusion holes to take away the spent fluid. A three-dimensional numerical model is used for steady, incompressible, laminar flow and conjugate heat transfer for the performance analysis of the proposed design. The computatio...

designing and manufacturing the multiple jets simulator and experimental investigation of the multiple jets in crossflow at low velocity ratios have been studied together with design and build a low-speed wind tunnel. a specific rake is used to determine the flow field pressure and changes in static pressure measured by pressure taps in the near field of the jets. there are generally three regi...

abstract in the present article, effective parameters of the buoyant jets have been evaluated in the stagnant ambient fluid. the jet parameters, geometry parameters and environmental parameters are investigated. using dimensional analysis, a set of dimensionless functions was obtained. to achieve the exact functions, a physical model was built in the hydraulic laboratory of shahid chamran unive...

This paper presents the design, development and characterization of contractile water jet thruster (CWJT) for mini underwater robot. Instead of electric motor, this CWJT utilizes the Ionic Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) as the actuator to generate the water jet. The main focus of this paper is to analyze the conceptual design of the proposed CWJT which would determine the thrust force value, je...
