✦ Synopsis

The methods used for the study of the impingement of a thermally inhomogeneous plane jet on a solid plate, using large-eddy simulation, are described. Innovative numerical methods have been introduced to produce the thermally inhomogeneous jet, to study the transmission of thermal fluctuations into the solid plate, and to prevent overshoot in the thermal computation. We have studied the impingement of water on a perspex plate in three different geometries, and also one case of the impingement of liquid sodium on a steel plate. Comparison is made with available experimental data and closure calculations.
