Abstract:In coiled tube heat exchangers increase in curvature ratio and effective contact of shell fluid with coil surface led to better thermal characteristics. This work addresses study of thermal performance, shell and tube heat transfer coefficients (ho and hi). Also, mathematical correlations are predicted to obtain shell and tube Nusselt numbers (Nuo and Nui). In the designing of compact coiled heat exchangers consisting of straight helical coil (SHC), conical coil (CC) and spiral coil knowledge of Nuo and Nui is… Show more
