The key of a successful design and operation of the mist jet impingement cooling system lies in mastering heat transfer coefficients. The heat transfer coefficients of high temperature steel plates cooled with multiple mist impinging jets were experimentally investigated, and the effects of gas and water flow rates on heat transfer coefficients were studied. The test results illustrate that the gas flow rate has little effect on the mist heat transfer rate. It is also found that the water flow rate has a great impact on the heat transfer coefficient. When the water flow rate ranges from 0.96m3/h to 1.59 m3/h, an increase in the rate will produce a higher heat transfer coefficient with a maximum of 5650 W/（m2 · K）. Compared with the conventional gas jet cooling, the heat transfer coefficient of the mist jet cooling will be much higher, which can effectively strengthen the after-pot cooling.展开更多
