Design Optimization of Submerged Jet Nozzles for Enhanced Mixing

The purpose of this thesis was to identify the optimal design parameters for a jet nozzle which obtains a local maximum shear stress while maximizing the average shear stress on the floor of a fluid filled system. This research examined how geometric parameters of a jet nozzle, such as the nozzle's angle, height, and orifice, influence the shear stress created on the bottom surface of a tank. Simulations were run using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software package to determine shear stress values for a parameterized geometric domain including the jet nozzle. A response surface was created based on the shear stress values obtained from 112 simulated designs. A multi-objective optimization software utilized the response surface to generate designs with the best combination of parameters to achieve maximum shear stress and maximum average shear stress. The optimal configuration of parameters achieved larger shear stress values over a commercially available design.

Heat Transfer Measurements in a Supersonic Film Flow

This thesis presents measurements of wall heat flux and flow structure in a canonical film cooling configuration with Mach 2.3 core flow in which the coolant is injected parallel to the wall through a two-dimensional louver. Four operating conditions are investigated: no film (i.e. flow over a rearward-facing step), subsonic film, pressure-matched film, and supersonic film. The overall objective is to provide a set of experimental data with well characterized boundary conditions that can be used for code validation. The results are compared to RANS and LES simulations which overpredict heat transfer in the subsonic film cases and underpredict heat transfer in supersonic cases after film breakdown. The thesis also describes a number of improvements that were made to the experimental facility including new Schlieren optics, a better film heater, more data at more locations, and a verification of the heat flux measurement hardware and data reduction methods.
