The flow enters the channel through the impingement holes and exits through the far end outlet. The flow fields corresponding to two jet Reynolds numbers （25000 and 65000） and three channel con- figurations with different ratios of the channel height to the impingement hole diameter （Zr 1, 3, 5） are analyzed by solving the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the realizable k-e turbulence model.

Comparisons between the numerical and experimental results of the flow fields at the four planes along the channel are performed to validate the numerical method.

文摘A series of numerical analyses have been performed to investigate the flow structures in a narrow confined channel with 12 staggered circular impingement holes and one bigger exit hole. The flow enters the channel through the impingement holes and exits through the far end outlet.
