Jet impingement onto a tapered hole: Influence of jet velocity and hole wall velocities on heat transfer and skin friction

Jet impingement onto a hole with elevated wall temperature can be associated with the high‐temperature thermal drilling, where the gas jet is used for shielding the hole wall from the high‐temperature oxidation reactions as observed in the case of laser drilling. In laser processing, the molten flow from the hole wall occurs; and in the model study, the hole wall velocity resembling the molten flow should be accounted for. In the present study, gas jet impingement onto tapered hole with elevated temperature is considered and the heat transfer rates as well as skin friction at the hole wall surface are predicted. The velocity of molten flow from the hole wall determined from the previous study is adopted in the simulations and the effect of hole wall velocity on the heat transfer rates and skin friction is also examined. It is found that the Nusselt number and skin friction at the hole wall in the regions of hole inlet and exit attain high values. The influence of hole wall velocity on the Nusselt number and skin friction is found not to be very significant. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

High-speed imaging of ultrasonic emulsification using a water-gallium system

Aiming at elucidating ultrasonic emulsification mechanisms, the interaction between a single or multiple acoustic cavitation bubbles and gallium droplet interface was investigated using an high-speed imaging technique. To our best knowledge, the moment of emulsification and formation of fine droplets during ultrasound irradiation were observed for the first time. It was found that the detachment of fine gallium droplets occurs from the water-gallium interface during collapse of big cavitation bubbles. The results suggest that the maximum size of cavitation bubble before collapsing is of prime importance for emulsification phenomena. Previous numerical simulation revealed that the collapse of big cavitation bubble is followed by generation of high-velocity liquid jet directed toward the water-gallium interface. Such a jet is assumed to be the prime cause of liquid emulsification. The distance between cavitation bubbles and water-gallium interface was found to slightly affect the emulsification onset. The droplet fragmentation conditions are also discussed in terms of the balance between (1) interfacial and kinetic energies and (2) dynamic and Laplace pressure during droplet formation.

Le jet libre immergé d'un fluide viscoélastique

Résumé Les auteurs étudient le jet libre laminaire bidimensionnel d'un fluide viscoélastique obéissant à une loi de comportement semiempirique. Ils appliquent la méthode de raccordement des développements asymptotiques afin de déterminer le profil de vitesses à l'intérieur du jet, et l'entraînement du fluide extérieur. Les résultats obtenus illustrent l'influence de l'élasticité sur le champ de vitesse et la présence d'un gradient de pression à l'intérieur du jet. Les lignes de courant obtenues montrent que le fluide externe est aspiré vers l'axe du jet.

Summary A two-dimensional laminar free jet of a viscoelastic fluid following a semiempiric constitutive equation is studied. The method of matching asymptotic expansions is applied to determine the velocity profiles inside the jet and the entrainment of the external fluid. The results thus obtained highlight the influence of elasticity on the velocity field and the presence of a pressure gradient inside the jet. The streamlines obtained show that the external fluid is sucked in towards the axis of the jet.

Zusammenfassung Es wird der laminare zweidimensionale Freistrahl einer viskoelastischen Flüssigkeit, die einem halbempirischen Stoffgesetz folgt, untersucht. Asymptotische Entwicklungen werden aneinandergefügt, um die Geschwindigkeitsverteilung in der Strahlströmung und die Ansaugkraft der äußeren Flüssigkeit zu bestimmen. Die erzielten Ergebnisse zeigen den Einfluß der Elastizität auf die Geschwindigkeitsverteilung und das Bestehen eines Druckgradienten innerhalb der Strahlströmung. Die abgeleiteten Stromlinien zeigen weiter, daß die äußere Flüssigkeit zur Strahlachse hin angesaugt wird.

The stick-slip problem for a round jet

Summary The stick-slip problem for a round jet studied in Part I gives a good approximation for the swell of a low speed jet when the surface tension is large but it fails when the surface tension is small. In this paper a new stick-slip problem (II) is defined and solved using matched eigenfunction expansions. The new problem reduces to that solved in Part I when the surface tension is large and gives good results in the case of zero and small surface tension.With 18 figures     

Influence of vent positions on smoke clearance from a room

Results of solutions to the equations governing the clearance of smoke in laminar and in turbulent flow from a single rectilinear room are presented fof five different vent arrangements. These results show that the average smoke concentration in the room decreases in an approximately exponential manner with time at a rate that depdends much more on room geometry (vent positions in the present case) than on whether the flow is laminar or turbulent. The benefit of this observation is that, provided the clearance air jet is disrupted by impingement on a solid surface within the room, the analysis of smoke movement can for many practical purposes be limited to consideration of laminar flow only. An exceptional case is when the jet is allowed to take a straight line path between the inlet and outlet vents. Here in the absence of the large scale eddies caused by jet impingement, the smaller scale eddies of turbulent flow become relatively important as a mixing mechanism and give higher clearance rates than in laminar flow. Even so, this type of geometry is best avoided. The appearance of the jet is shown in a graphic presentation of the numerical results for laminar flow.
