Volumetric Lagrangian particle tracking measurements of jet impingement on convex cylinder

Kurzfassung

Impinging jets are widely used for heat and mass transfer because they are applicable to any type of body and can be easily implemented. They are is also used in various industrial fields and design techniques. Previous researches usually have investigated a jet impinging onto a flat surface. However, since most of the mechanical parts have curvature on their surface, it is necessary to study more detailed properties using advanced measurements of the jet impinging on a curved surface. Therefore, in this study, three-dimensional flow structures of a round jet impinging on a convex cylinder surface were measured using volumetric Lagrangian particle tracking (LPT).
