An investigation has been carried out to investigate the effect of nozzle geometry on hot horizontal surface rewetting during water jet impingement cooling. The test surface of 800 ± 10°C initial surface temperature is cooled by water jet of 22 ± 1°C temperature. The water flow is varied to maintain the jet Reynolds number in a range of 5,000 to 24,000. The rewetting phenomena with sharp-edged and tube-type nozzles are compared on the basis of rewetting temperature, wetting delay, rewetting velocity, and maximum surface heat flux. The rewetting performance with tube-type nozzle is better than the sharp-edged nozzle particularly for the downstream spatial locations; however, maximum surface heat flux at the stagnation region is higher with the sharp-edged nozzle.
