        abstract = {Hot Stainless Steel (SS-304) horizontal surface of different initial temperatures are cooled by water jet of 33 ºC temperature and 3 mm diameter. The surface cooling performance is investigated with flow rate of 1.2 and 5.10 lpm. The test surface is of 150 mm long, 150 mm wide and 2 mm thickness. Surface is initially heated up to certain temperature in furnace and cooled by downward impinging jet. The process of surface cooling is recorded by a camera and the wetting speed over the hot surface is determined. The wetting speed on the hot surface is observed in the range of 2 – 35 mm/s for 10 mm – 40 mm spatial locations. It has been observed that the wetting speed increases with rise in flow rate and reduces for higher downstream spatial locations and surface initial temperature.},
