    The influences of perforated-baffles on the local Nusselt number (Nu) and thermo-hydraulic behaviors were comprehensively studied using thermochromic liquid crystal sheet. The perforated-baffles were designed in two forms: perforated-baffle (PB) and perforated-baffle with square wings (SW-PBs). Transverse solid baffles (TBs) were also tested for an assessment. All baffles had an identical height of 12 mm (e/H = 0.3). Experimental results showed that SW-PBs offered better Nu than PBs. It is also seen that PBs and SW-PBs caused lower pressure loss than TBs by around 20.49% and 13.98%, respectively. The reduction of friction loss was primarily due to the baffle perforation. In addition, the PBs yielded the thermal performance factors (TPF) up to 1.01 at the lowest Reynolds number of 6000.

    The aim of this study is to report the influence of wing position (h/e) of perforated transverse baffles with square-wings (SW-PBs) on heat transfer rate and pressure drop characteristics in a channel. The channel has a cross-sectional dimension of 15 cm × 4 cm and a length of 60 cm. Two types of baffles: Solid transverse baffles and square-wing perforated transverse baffles, are comparatively tested. The baffle pitch ratio (p/e) is set to 5.0 and remains constant throughout all experiments which encompass Reynolds numbers (Re) of 6000, 9000, 12,000, 15,000, 18,000, 21,000, and 24,000. Square-wings are introduced at four different locations, h/e = 0.92 (highest wing location), 0.83, 0.75, and 0.67 (lowest wing location). The maximum heat transfer rates achieved in channels with SW-PBs at h/e = 0.92, 0.83, 0.75, and 0.67 are 148%, 157%, 166%, and 180% above that of a plain channel, while pressure losses increase by 9.51–10.69, 9.56–10.79, 9.59–10.86, and 9.64–10.99 times, respectively. Experimental results show that square-wings create multiple impinging jet flows and Nusselt number peaks appear adjacent to the rear of the perforated transverse baffles. When compared to solid transverse baffles, SW-PBs cause lower pressure losses and yield higher thermal performance.
