Abstract
In this paper the flow and heat transfer characteristics in the turbulent confinement impinging air jet have been numerically analyzed. Two-equation turbulence model, κ-ε, have been used. Mass, momentum, energy, turbulent kinetic energy and turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate equations were solved by the PHOENICS package program. Velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate and heat transfer characteristics in the impinging region have been predicted by finite volume scheme for the various plate spacings.
