We simulate this heat transfer over a wide range of study parameters, including Reynolds number and mist mass fraction, and three jet shapes: circular, half circuit, and quarter circuit. Simulations show that when compared with air only, mist provides higher heat-transfer enhancements for the first two shapes but is insignificant for the third. The area-average Nusselt number is higher by similar to 100% for the half-circuit jet than for the circular jet for both single-phase air and mist. With 0.5% mist, the area average Nusselt number of the circular jet is enhanced by 41% at Reynolds number 10000. (C) 2016 Elsevier Masson SAS.
