The objective of the present study is to investigate the heat transfer characteristics of turbulent impinging jets with bifurcating excitations. Bifurcating excitations use the dual mode, dual frequency forcing, where an axial forcing frequency is equal to double the helical forcing frequency. Under the bifurcating excitation, the heat transfer significantly increases in one plane (bifurcating plane), while nearly no heat transfer occurs in the perpendicular plane (bisecting plane). This result is closely associated with the change in the vortical structures caused by the excitation.
