Abstract

Liquid jet cooling device is designed for automotive exhaust system cooling. It is a simply a heat exchanger designed for automotive exhaust system which is used to control the temperature of automotive exhaust system, as it is necessary to control the temperature of automobile engine and automotive exhaust gases. This device can be fitted with exhaust pipe near manifold to control the temperature of exhaust system. Performance analysis of liquid jet cooling device is carried out for heat transfer rate between cooling water of liquid jet cooling device and the exhaust pipe. The experimental study is carried out for superficial liquid coolant velocity in the range between 0.016 m/s and 0.032 m/s and the speed of engine set for 1500, 2000 and 2200 RPM. It has been investigated from the experimental research that using liquid jet cooling device, higher heat transfer rate between exhaust pipe and cooling water is obtained for increasing the superficial liquid coolant velocity for each run of the engine which controls the exhaust system temperature.
