Abstract
A series of experimental investigations with stringent measurement methods on the studies related to fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of a stationary or rotating MCM disk with various types of jet impingement have been performed. The total experimental cases for a stationary or rotating MCM disk with various types of jet impingement are statistically designed by the Design of Experiments (DOE) together with Central Composite Design method (CCD). The relevant parameters influencing fluid flow and heat transfer performance for a stationary or rotating MCM disk with various types of single jet and jet array impingement include: steady-state Grashof number (GrH), ratio of jet separation distance to nozzle diameter (H/d), ratio of nozzle diameter to disk diameter (d/D), ratio of nozzle geometric-mean pitch to disk diameter ( /d), jet Reynolds number (Rej) and rotational Reynolds number (Rer).
