Abstract
Pulsed jets in different configuration are potentially considered for enhancing transport phenomenon generally. Flow and temperature field in a pulsed impinging jet are simulated numerically by solving the governing equations using the control volume method. Ensemble Averaging Method as well as Phase Averaging has been employed for reporting the results in this study. In order to simulate a pulsating jet, inlet velocity profile was exerted as a time dependent sinusoidal and step signals. The results of this simulation showed an oscillatory jet could lead to an increase in jet development and its cross section with the wall and also a more uniform Nusselt profile would be obtained compared to the steady jet. For parametric investigations and extracting flow and thermal characteristics of a pulsed impinging jet, the effects of various parameters including flow frequency and amplitude and heat flux frequency were considered. It has been seen that Nusselt number varies by the changes in frequency, amplitude and the type of the excitation. It has been shown that the oscillating impinging jet has a better performance rather than the steady case when the excitation amplitude and frequency increase. Finally, it is also observed how a thermal field is going to respond with two pulsating inputs.
