Role of Laminar Length of Round Jet Impinging on Metal Foams

Abstract: Impingement heat transfer in a circular block of an open-cell metal foam with high porosity (ε 0.94) is experimentally studied at two distinctive flow regimes, semiturbulent (Re j 1800 and 2800) and fully turbulent (Re j 7500 and 15,000) regimes. The influence of jet structures and their variation with jet exit-to-foam spacing (impinging distance) on overall heat transfer are characterized. The laminar length appears in the semiturbulent jet but disappears in the fully turbulent jet. Its role is found to longi… Show more

“…The axial length of the area without any mixing is represented by the laminar length. The radius of the jet is almost identical to the nozzle radius in this area [23]. The jet begins to mix with the surrounding fluid after the laminar length has passed, and the jet's radius gradually grows as well.…”

“…Most of the papers found in the literature concern theoretical modelling [2,[4][5][6][7][8][9], experimental measurements [1,[10][11][12][13][14], or both [15][16][17][18][19][20][21] on metallic or polymeric foams, used to enhance or reduce heat transfer in heat exchangers. Some of them are reviews of this subject [2,[22][23][24][25][26].…”

“…The latter resulted in being the most important factor. Kuang et al [13] measured the heat transfer convection coefficient in different flow regimes and concluded that a characteristic length is the major factor influencing it. Hong et al [5] analytically evaluated the border effects in the free convection of a heated vertical wall covered by metallic foam: these effects are meaningful only for high porosity foams.…”
