The objective of the study was to investigate the characteristics of heat transfer and flow in 2-dimensional impinging air jet system, in which trapezoid rods have been set up in front of impinging plate in order to increase heat transfer. Experiments were carried out first using without the rods to establish the baseline heat transfer performance. And this result compared with the experimentation with rods. When rods are installed in front of the impinging plate, the acceleration of the flow and the eddies due to the rods seem to contribute to the heat transfer enhancement. Heat transfer performance was best under the condition of C=1 n and as the pitch is 30 mm. In this case, maximum rate of heat transfer augmentation is about 1.62 times greater compared to that without trapezoid rods.

The objective of this research was to investigate the enhancement of heat transfer by wire mesh in impinging air jet system at the potential core region. The first experiment was carried out without mesh between nozzle exit and flat plate and the second experiment was done with mesh between them. When mesh was installed in front of the plate, heat transfer has been Increased due to the acceleration between rectangular halls and divided small jet In case clearances are changed, heat transfer comes to maximum under the condition of C=1mm, irrespective of nozzle exit velocity and H/B. Also the average heat transfer enhancement rate of a flat plate with mesh has been increased about 44% at maximum under the condition of U=18m/s, H/B=2 and C=1mm, compared to the result of a flat plate without mesh.

This research has been proceeded over the transition region(H/B=10) of two-dimensional impinging air jet system, in which square rods has been set up in front of heating surface in order to increase heat transfer. The objective of this research was to investigate the characteristics of heat transfer and air flow, in cases the clearance from rods to heating surface(C=1, 2, 4, 6 mm) and the width of rods(W=4, 6, 8 mm) changed. And this research compared the above with the experimentation without rods. As result, heat transfer performance was best under the condition of C=1 mm, and as the width is 8 mm, it is largely influenced by eddies and acceleration in case width of rods changed.

An experimental investigation of the flame appearance and heat transfer characteristics in both unexcited and excited impinging inverse diffusion flames with a loud speaker has been performed. The flame is found to become broader and shorter (in length) with acoustic excitation. The heat flux at the stagnation point is increased with the acoustic excitation. The acoustic excitation is more effective in lean conditions than in rich conditions. The reasons for these behaviors are that acoustic excitation improves the entrainment of surrounding air into the jet. From this study, it is found that the maximum increase of 57% in the total heat flux is obtained at the stagnation point of $\Phi$=0.8. Therefore, it is ascertained that the excitation combustion can be adopted with effective instruments as a method for improving heat transfer in impinging jet flames.

An experimental investigation on heat transfer characteristics of two-dimensional heated blocks using a confined impinging slot jet has been performed. At p/w=1, the effects of jet Reynolds number($Re=3900{\sim}12000$), dimensionless nozzle to block distance(H/B=1, 2, 4, 6) and nozzle type have been examined with five isothermally heated blocks. With the measurement of jet mean velocity and turbulence intensity distributions at nozzle exit, initially turbulent regimes, are classified. To clarify local heat transfer characteristics, naphthalene sublimation technique were used. The local and average heat transfer of heated blocks increase with the sharp-edged nozzle and increasing jet Reynolds number.

An experimental study has been performed to investigate the heat transfer characteristics of impinging jets with corrugated nozzle and wake generation plate. Three different shapes of corrugated nozzle and five different shapes of wake generation plate were tested to improve the heat transfer characteristics of impinging jet. Heat transfer coefficients were obtained by using transient method based on the liquid crystal thermography. The effects of corrugated nozzle and wake generation plate on the heat transfer characteristics of impinging jets were discussed in detail. The results showed that both the corrugated nozzle and the wake generation plate improved the heat transfer characteristics of impinging jet. Especially, heat transfer coefficients around stagnation region of impinging jets were highly increased.

The heat transfer characteristics of confined turbulent slot jet impingement on the flat plate with square rods(turbulence promoter) have been experimentally investigated at different nozzle configuration. The effects of jet Reynolds number (Re=3900, 5800, 7800, 9700), dimensionless slot-to-plate distance(H/B=4, 6, 8) and clearance(c) between square rods and the plate were examined. Measurement of heat transfer rate were conducted using naphthalene sublimation technique. When square rods were inserted over the heat transfer surface, heat transfer rate was slightly increased in the wall jet region and the sharp-edged orifice nozzle was heigher than squared orifice nozzle.

The average heat transfer coefficient of 2-D impinging jet has been augmented as much as 60% on the wall with large-scale wavy roughness. The mechanism of this heat transfer augmentation is studied with emphasis on two primary flow structures in the impinging flow region by using either the surface floating method or the smoke-wire technique. They are the stream-wise vortex-like structure, which is characteristic to the impining jet, and the spanwise vortiecs associated with the flow separation around the roughness. The combined effect of these structures can effectively augment the heat transfer particularly in the downstream region where the teat transfer usually deteriorates consicerably.

The objective of this study was to investigate the characteristics of air flow and heat transfer caused by trapezoid rods array in impinging air jet system. In this study, trapezoid rods have been set up on front of flat plate to act as a turbulence promoter. Local Nusselt numbers were determined as a function of three parameters: (a) the space from rods to heating surface(C=1, 2, 4mm), (b) the pitch between each rods(P=30, 40, 50mm), (c) the distance from nozzle exit to flat plate(H/B=2, 6, 10). And this research compared the above with the experiment without trapezoid rods. As a result, heat transfer performance was best under the condition of C=1mm and as the pitch is 30mm. In this case, maximum rate of heat transfer augmentation is about 1.9 times greater compared to that without trapezoid rods.
