Abstract: When two spaces of different gas pressure are connected through a nozzle forming and spreading a gas jet with certain energetic characteristics is observed in the region of the lower pressure. If a solid body is located in the region of the jet spreading, then this case is defined as an impinging gas jet. The aim of this work is to consider a specific case of this heat transfer method using 3D virtual simulation models known as Computational Fluid Dynamics - CFD. The simulations were performed in the commercial solver Star-CCM+ version 6.04.014 using two turbulence models: Shear Stress Transport - SST and v2f Low-Reynolds Number (Re) k-ϵ model. The obtained results are represented by a dimensionless Nusselt number (Nu) and its local validation determines the accuracy of the solver when using a digital twin describing a real measurement set-up with known empirical measurements in digital format.
