Numerical Investigation of Forced Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer from Conically Coiled Pipes

Numerical estimation of mixed convection heat transfer in vertical helically coiled tube heat exchangers

“…They considered the coil height as the best representation for a vertical coil and their prediction procedure showed a promise as a method of predicting the outlet temperature from a coil given the inlet temperature and coil dimensions. Numerical investigations were conducted to understand forced laminar fluid flow over coiled pipes with circular cross-section by Conte et al [9]. The focus of their work was on exploring the convective heat transfer from conical and helical coils via comparative studies.…”

Prediction of heat transfer and flow characteristics in helically coiled tubes using artificial neural networks

“…Moreover, the numerical modeling was performed in various literatures [13][14][15][16] and effects of dimensionless geometrical parameters of the helically coiled tubes such as curvature ratio and coil pitch on the heat transfer and flow characteristics were investigated.…”

Numerical and experimental investigations of heat transfer performance of rectangular coil heat exchangers

“…Therefore, for the shell-side, the conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy equation can be used in Cartesian three-dimensional domain as follows [11,[21][22][23]:…”

“…Several numerical and experimental investigations were performed to explore fluid flow and heat transfer in coiled tubes [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. Conté and Peng [1] carried out a numerical investigation dealing with steady laminar fluid flow in coiled pipes (composed of bends and straight portions) to explore the flow behavior and its influence on the temperature distribution and heat transfer.…”
