Investigation of Thermo-hydraulic Performance of Circular Tube Fitted with Center-cleared Twisted Tape Using CFD Modeling (RESEARCH NOTE)
The article presents a practical technique for enhancing thermo-hydraulic performance of a circular tube. In this way, numerical method focusing on laminar tubular flow is used to compare the effectiveness of utilizing center-cleared twisted tapes instead of typical shape of short width tapes. Numerical analysis represented that using both center-cleared and typical shape of twisted tapes, Re e...
متن کاملNumerical Study of a Pipe Extension Effect in Draft Tube on Hydraulic Turbine Performance
Draft tube of Francis type hydraulic turbine usually consists of: cone, elbow and diffuser. On the contrary, in some power stations an extra pipe should be added to the draft tube at the bottom of cone because of installation limitation. In this paper, this special case has been numerically studied. To this end CFD analysis was applied to simulate all parts of hydraulic turbine. A homogeneous m...
متن کاملThermal Design Considerations and Performance Evaluation of Cryogenic Tube in Tube Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are the most important equipment in refrigeration processes. Design and modeling of heat exchangers operating at low temperatures are different from other regular heat exchangers. This study includes two sections. In the first section, design and modeling considerations needed for evaluating the real thermal behavior of heat exchangers at low temperatures were discussed. The...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of Thermal Performance in an Advanced Solar Collector with Spiral Tube
This paper reports the thermal performance of a new cylindrical solar collector based on an experimental investigation with this difference that instead of the collector tube with absorbent coating, coil into a spiral copper tube is placed in the center of the collector. The spiral shape of the tube, heat transfer without disruption or increase the heat transfer area, is increasing. In this cas...
متن کاملExperimental Investigations in a Circular Tube to Enhance Turbulent Heat Transfer Using Mesh Inserts
The present work shows the results obtained from experimental investigations of the augmentation of turbulent flow heat transfer in a horizontal tube by means of mesh inserts with air as the working fluid. Sixteen types of mesh inserts with screen diameters of 22mm, 18mm, 14mm and 10mm for varying distance between the screens of 50mm, 100mm, 150mm and 200mm in the porosity range of 99.73 to 99....
