Abstract In this paper, two heat transfer configurations (central-jet and side-jet) of jet impinging on a semicircular surface are experimentally studied. The internal channel is formed using flat insulated wall and a semi-circular surface using a curved flexible heater with a uniform heat flux. A set of experiments have been performed for the purpose of assessing the heat augmentation and pressure drop between the two jet configurations. The measurements include the inlet and outlet flow temperatures using thermocouples, the temperature map of the flexible heater using thermal infra-red camera, the flow rates using rotary meter and More >
