Hydrodynamic of a turbulent impinging jet on a flat plate has been studied experimentally and numerically. Experiments were conducted for the Reynolds number range of 72000 to 102000 and a fixed jet-to-plate dimensionless distance of H/d=3.5. Based on the experimental setup, a multi-phase numerical model was simulated to predict flow properties of impinging jets using two turbulent models. Mesh...

Recent studies of impinging jet flows have shown that momentum and heat transfer can be significantly improved if the jet flow is pulsed (Zumbrunnen, 1996). Moreover, when the jet holes are elliptical, jet free surfaces are formed into a helical structure. These helical structures in a jet flow can be readily observed by squeezing a garden hose into an elliptic shape. Upon pulsating the jet flo...

Impinging jet ventilation (IJV), which supplies a high momentum air impinging and spreading over the floor, could be used in both cooling heating modes. However, as low-level supply system, excessive temperature difference between head ankle levels may exist due to cool being directly supplied occupied zone. As one type of different personalized (PV) terminal device, ductless (DPV) is self-stan...

Recent studies of impinging jet flows have shown that momentum exchange and heat transfer can be significantly improved if the jet flow is pulsed (Zumbrunnen, 1996). Moreover, when the jet holes are elliptical, jet free surfaces are formed into a helical structure. Upon pulsating the jet flow, the helical structure rotates and a strong twisting action can be imparted where the jet strikes a sur...

A computational uid dynamics and heat transfer analysis is performed to determine the convection and radiation heat transfer from an impinging ame jet to a plane surface. This paper focuses on analyzing the behavior of an impinging ame jet, including buoyancy e ects, turbulence in uence, and convective and radiative heat transfer processes. The combustion is modeled using a 12-species probabili...

In this work, fluid dynamics of a turbulent round impinging jet has been studied using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and the results have been compared with experimental data from the literature. The fluid was water with density of 1000 kg/m 3 and the average velocity of the submerged jet was kept constant at 10.7 m/s while the liquid viscosity varied from 1 cP to 100 cP. Different turbule...

The particle size control of drug is one of the most important factors affecting the efficiency of the nano-drug production in confined liquid impinging jets. In the present research, for this investigation the confined liquid impinging jet was used to produce nanoparticles of Carbamazepine. The effects of several parameters such as concentration, solution and anti-solvent flow rate and solvent...

The design of crystallization processes becomes more complicated when mixing affects the final crystal product quality (e.g., crystal size distribution and polymorphic form). Such mixing effects are more apparent in antisolvent and reactive crystallizations, which involve the blending of different fluids, and in large-scale crystallizers, where homogeneity cannot be easily achieved. In this pap...

The use of impinging liquid jets in electronics thermal management is attracting some consideration due to their very high heat transfer coefficients, hot spot targeting capabilities and moderate hydraulic power requirements. In this investigation an experimental study of the cooling capabilities of impinging water jet arrays is presented. Of particular interest here is the influence that the i...
