Conjugated heat transfer investigation with racetrack-shaped jet hole and double swirling chamber in rotating jet impingement

• A numerical study is performed to investigate the effects of jet hole shape and channel geometry on impingement cooling for both stationary and rotating condition. Two hole shapes and two channel geometries are introduced to counteract the adverse effects of centrifugal force and Coriolis force which are induced by rotation. Both the fluid and solid part are considered for realizing the conjugate heat transfer simulation. The unsteady k-ω SST turbulence model was employed to obtain the time-averaged Nusselt number distributions, time-averaged temperature and temperature gradient fields and the turbulent flow structure. The results show that the cooling jet from the racetrack-shaped hole can effectively withstand the intensive streamwise crossflow to enhance the heat transfer. The double swirling chamber (DSC) channel significantly improves the heat transfer characteristics on the cambered surface and diminishes the adverse effects of the Coriolis force. The high Nu number region is expanded while the temperature uniformity is improved. The combination of the racetrack-shaped hole and DSC channel provides the highest heat transfer among the four cases. The averaged Nu numbers on both the leading and trailing sides for all tested cases show obvious downtrend as rotation number increases, especially at high Reynolds number.
