Abstract:The heat exchanger performance of a system can be enhancedemploying a combination of passive strategies, particularly nanofluids and varied structures of fins geometries. These methods can enhance the heat transfer coefficient and consequently reduce the weight of the system. In this paper, the effect of fin geometry and nanofluids in Plate Fin Heat Exchangers (PFHE) are studied by numerical analysis. The forced convective heat transfer performance is evaluated in terms of Nanofluid Thermal Performance Number … Show more
