Abstract
This experimental investigation is aimed to evaluate the effects of convective heat transfer phenomena in an aluminium metal flat disc/plate placed below metal foam using a single round jet of air impinging in a confined region. The Jet impingement technique contains pressurized air, which is configured for certain specific application. It is designed to spray the fluid with the help of a nozzle on the surface of the disc or plate which is being heated or is being cooled. To understand the heat transfer phenomena in a metal plate with metal foams facing round air jet impingement; three metal foams of similar geometries but of different porosities and permeabilities are taken for study. Each experiment is performed with seven different flow rates and at two different heights with two different heat flux values. The recorded measurements are temperatures, pressure differences, flow rates, resistance voltages and currents, and time. The outcomes of the experimental data are analysed and compared results of all four distinct kinds of metal foams with different jet to plate height and at different heat fluxes. It is concluded that heat transfer efficiency may or may not increase depending upon the metal foam used. Overall, the conclusions are extremely useful in engineering.
