Abstract
The jet impingement phenomenon is one of the processes which can enhance heat transfer. Due to its complex nature, it has been the subject of many experimental and numerical analyses in which researchers have tried to quantify and qualitatively describe it. However, the lack of crucial information regarding procedures, accuracy, geometry settings, boundary conditions, etc. makes it challenging to compare the results, validate turbulence models, and reproduce data. In this publication, the authors show a consistent and systematic numerical analysis of round and turbulent jet impingement based on RANS turbulence models. The results have been calculated for various geometrical configurations, Reynolds number values, and turbulence models, and compared with experimental and numerical data available in the literature to show their similarities and differences. It led to unique data collection, which was used in the novel quantitative analysis and helped lead to proposing the measure of the heat transfer performance of a particular turbulence model. Such a measure has not been reported so far. The measure exhibited that no turbulence model is suitable for all analyzed parameters. Quantitative comparisons enable recommendations of turbulence models for analyzed cases which have the potential to accelerate the design process of devices and could be a source of suggestions for other researchers.
