NUMERICAL STUDY OF HEAT TRANSFER ENHANCEMENT DUE TO THE USE OF FRACTAL-SHAPED DESIGN FOR IMPINGEMENT COOLING

ABSTRACT
This paper describes a numerical analysis of a heat transfer enhancement technique that introduces fractal-shaped design for impingement cooling. Based on the gas turbine combustion chamber cooling, a fractal-shaped nozzle is designed for the constant flow area in a single impingement cooling model. The incompressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are applied to the system using CFD software. The numerical results are compared with the experiment results for array impingement cooling.
