Abstract:Due to the importance of promoting the thermal performance of heat exchangers, innovating a new technique is the main goal of many researchers. In swirl flow techniques, keeping the pressure drop at the practical level still requires more and more attention. In the current paper, a numerical study is conducted to explore the impact of a novel lobe swirl generator and its transition parts on forced convective heat transfer and friction factor in a circular pipe subjected to constant heat flux.The swirl mechanis… Show more
