Abstract:The sustainability index, waste energy ratio and improvement potential of a staggered air jet impingement on the staggered spherical protrusions of a roughened absorber plate were derived for the present study to evaluate exergy losses and irreversibility in the system. The experimental analysis was carried out for selected parameters: relative streamwise pitch, relative spanwise pitch and relative jet diameter to hydraulic diameter ratio. The flow Reynolds number ranged from 4000–18,000. The augmentation in N… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
