Abstract
The present research is focused on computational analysis of conjugate heat transfer behavior of a turbulent offset jet flow over a moving flat plate in a quiescent environment. The plate of definite thickness and conductivity is subjected to isothermal condition at the plate bottom surface. The computation is carried out with a low-Reynolds number (LRN) turbulence model proposed by Yang and Shih which involves integration to wall (ITW) approach to capture the thin viscous sub-layer region within the boundary layer. The variation of offset ratio (ranging as 3, 7 and 11) and plate velocity (Up = 0 − 2) plays quite a major role in the distribution of interface temperature and Nusselt number. The conduction heat flow rate in solid depends upon the plate thickness ratio (S) which is varied as 0.5 − 1.5 and the conductivity ratio (K) ranging as 500 − 2000. The variation of average Nusselt number gives evidence of better cooling rate for smaller offset ratios and higher plate to jet velocity ratio.
