Zusammenfassung:In this article, the confined jet impingement cooling of a semicylindrical concave plate is analyzed numerically. The finite volume approach is applied to two-dimensional numerical simulations in the transient regime. Air is employed as the working fluid and is regarded as nonparticipant for radiation. The investigation is done for different jet Reynolds numbers (Rej) ranging from 100 to 1000, as the Richardson number (Ri) corresponding to this interval ranges between 0.1 and 10. For any Richardson number, the modified Grashof number (Gr*) is fixed at 105. When analyzing the impact of intersurface radiation between the target plate and confined surfaces on the overall cooling performance, three emissivity values (ε= 0.05, 0.5, and 0.95) are taken into consideration. Additionally, simulations are done for the pure convective heat transfer, ignoring intersurface radiation (ε= 0.0). The influence of surface emissivity and the Richardson number on velocity, temperature, and pressure distribution in the flow domain, local dimensionless temperature (θ) alterations on the target plate and confined walls, alterations in convective (Nuc), radiative (Nur), overall Nusselt numbers (Nuovr), pressure coefficient (Cp), and ratio of radiative Nusselt number to overall Nusselt number (Nur/Nuovr) on the target plate are highlighted. The findings demonstrate that surface emissivity has a significant influence on thermal and hydrodynamic boundary layer formation, buoyancy induced flow and heat transfer, and the proportion of intersurface radiation in overall heat transfer rises as the Richardson number and surface emissivity increase. At low Richardson numbers, the pressure in the stagnation region is greater than the atmospheric pressure. However, as the buoyancy effect increases, the pressure in the stagnation region falls below the atmospheric pressure and rises toward the exit.
