Turbulent heat transfer at the forward face surface of a vortex chamber

  • Published:
Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

We present the results from a theoretical and experimental investigation into the turbulent transfer that takes place in the face boundary layer of a vortex chamber. It is demonstrated that the intensity of heat transfer at the faces of the chamber, in view of the three-dimensional nature of the flow, is significantly greater than in the case of a standard boundary layer at a plate.
