Abstract
Efficient cooling system design with impinging jets becomes an important topic due to its higher cooling performance applicable to engineering systems such as in electronic cooling, photovoltaic panels and material processing. In the present study, cooling of an oscillating hot object is considered by using a double slot jet impingement system in the presence of a uniform inclined magnetic field. The oscillation of body and magnetic field can be present in the system or they can be considered as methods for flow and convective heat transfer control for the slot-jet impingement system. Analysis is done for a range of values for the jet Reynolds number (Re ranging from 100 to 500), Hartmann number (Ha, ranging from 0 to 10), inclination of magnetic field (γ, ranging from 0 to 90), and oscillation amplitude (Amp, between −3 and 3) by using finite element method with Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian technique. It is observed that due to the hot object's oscillating nature, cooling is either increased or worsened for different time steps based. When Re is raised from the lowest to highest value, average Nusselt number (Nu) increases by a factor of 2.4. In the cooling system with impinging jets, strength of magnetic field and its inclination may be employed to regulate the vortex size and distribution. In comparison to the absence of magnetic field, the average Nu falls by around 73% to 75.5% at the greatest magnetic field strength. When oscillation is enabled, cooling performance is increased adopting the time step. By comparing the oscillating object with stationary one, cooling performance improvements of 28% and 8.3% are obtained at (Re, Ha)=(500, 0), and (500, 10) parametric combinations. © 2024 The Author(s)
