Enhancement of Cooling using Design Modification on Single Wall Mounted Cube Exposed to Impinging Jet and Cross Flow
Abstract
The aim of the present work is to enhance the cooling effectiveness of a single wall mounted cube exposed to
imping jet and cross flow. The arrangement is analogous to electronic cooling configuration. For a particular value of cross
flow velocity corresponding to Reynolds number (ReH) of 3410, three different jet velocities are being tested which
corresponds to Reynolds number (Rej) of 1705 and 3410. The governing equation of continuity, momentum and energy have
been solved using commercial package Fluent®. The cooling effectiveness enhancement has been done using modifications in
the design of the cube which involve normal grooving. The design changes bring about a change in the flow patterns which
have been studied in the scope of this work. It can bring about the heat transfer enhancement by 1.3 times.
