Item type:Publication, Thermo-hydraulic performance in heat exchanger tube with V-shaped winglet vortex generator(2020-01-05); Skullong, SompolThis article presents the influence of V-shaped winglet vortex generators (V-WVGs) inserted into a constant heat-fluxed tube on thermal characteristics. In the present experiment, two V-WVG types: V-shaped rectangular- and delta-winglets (V-RW and V-DW) were mounted periodically on both sides of a straight tape before insertion into the tube with four relative winglet pitches (P<inf>R</inf> = P/D = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0) and three winglet blockage ratios (B<inf>R</inf> = b/D = 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2) at a fixed attack angle (α = 45°). Effects of geometric parameters of both V-WVGs on thermal performance enhancement were studied using air as tested fluid in a turbulence condition, Reynolds number (Re) ranging between 4130 and 25,900. The measured result has been shown that the V-RW performs higher rate of heat transfer as well as friction loss than the V-DW and the rise in B<inf>R</inf> results in higher increase of the heat transfer rate and friction loss while the increment in P<inf>R</inf> yields the reversing tendency for both V-WVG types. A new thermal-performance enhancement factor (TEF) has been introduced and it reveals that the V-DW has TEF in a range of 1.82–2.0 or around 3% above the V-RW where its peak regarded as the optimal point is at B<inf>R</inf> = 0.15 and P<inf>R</inf> = 1.0. Empirical correlations for the Nusselt number and friction factor to assess the real merits of a heat exchanger tube with V-WVGs are determined. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Thermal characterization in a circular tube fitted with inclined horseshoe baffles(2015-01-22); ; In the present study, the influence of inclined horseshoes baffles placed repeatedly in a tubular heat exchanger on heat transfer rate, friction factor and thermal enhancement factor are experimentally determined. The horseshoe baffle elements with an inclination angle of 20° were inserted periodically into the test tube at three different baffle-pitch ratios (P<inf>R</inf> = 0.5, 1.0 and 2) and -width or blockage ratios (B<inf>R</inf> = 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2). The experiment was conducted in the test tube having a uniform heat-fluxed wall by varying turbulent airflow to obtain Reynolds number in a range of 5300-24,000. The experimental results revealed that the tube fitted with inclined horseshoes baffles provides considerable improvement of the heat transfer rate over the plain tube around 92-208% while the friction factor is increased at about 1.76-6.37 times. To access the real benefits for the inclined horseshoes baffles inserted in plain tube, thermal performance factor is examined and found to be in the range of 1.34-1.92 at which the maximum obtained at P<inf>R</inf> = 0.5 and B<inf>R</inf> = 0.1 is considerably higher than that for published inserted devices. Correlations for Nusselt number and friction factor for the oblique horseshoe-baffled tube are also proposed. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Thermal performance of heat exchanger tube inserted with curved-winglet tapes(2018-01-25); ; ; The paper deals with the effect of curved-winglet (CW) inserts on thermal and flow behaviors in a constant heat-fluxed tube. A straight tape is used to support the 45° CWs mounted repeatedly on both tape sides to generate two pairs of longitudinal counter-rotating vortices along the test tube in order to assist the chaotic flow mixing and to disrupt the boundary layer leading to faster rate of heat transfer. The airflow and heat transfer behaviors in the tube are examined for Reynolds number (Re) in the range of 4150–25,400. The curved-winglet tape (CWT) parameters involved are the winglet attack angle of 45° three relative winglet heights (b/D = B<inf>R</inf> = 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3) and winglet pitches, (P/D = P<inf>R</inf> = 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0). The investigation reveals that the maximum thermal enhancement factor (TEF) of the CWT is about 1.62 at B<inf>R</inf> = 0.1 and P<inf>R</inf> = 1.0. For further improvement, the CWT at B<inf>R</inf> = 0.1 and P<inf>R</inf> = 1.0 is modified by punching the CW to be the perforated-curved-winglet tape (P-CWT) to reduce the pressure loss. The P-CWT characteristics include five different punched hole diameters (d = 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 mm). The experimental results show that TEF of all the P-CWTs is higher than that of the CWT and the maximum TEF of 1.76 higher than the CWT around 9% is found for d = 1.5 mm. To understand the flow pattern and heat transfer mechanism, a three-dimensional CFD investigation is also performed and for validation, the good agreement between numerical and experimental results is found. For experimental data, empirical correlations for Nu, f and TEF for the CWT and P-CWT inserts are also determined. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Enhanced thermal performance in tubular heat exchanger contained with V-shaped baffles(2021-02-25); Skullong, SompolThe vortex-flow device is a promising streamwise vortex generator employed to produce the counter-rotating vortices along a heated tube to augment the heat transfer rate with comparatively smaller friction loss penalty. Thus, the influences of V-shaped baffle vortex generator (hereafter called “V-baffle”) insert in a heated tube on thermal-performance enhancement were experimentally examined in the current work. The geometric characteristics of the V-baffles mounted repeatedly on the edges of a flat plate/tape were three ratios of relative baffle blockages, (b/D = B<inf>R</inf> = 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2), and four ratios of baffle pitches, (P/D = P<inf>R</inf> = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0) at a fixed angle of attack (α = 30°). The present V-baffle placed on the tape edge was aimed to lessen the pressure loss from disturbing the central core flow for the case of placing it on the double sides of a tape as found in the literature. The experiment was conducted by letting air flow through the test tube with Reynolds number (Re) in the range of 4192 to 25,750. The current study indicated that the friction factor and heat transfer using the V-baffle inserts increase considerably with rising B<inf>R</inf> but reducing P<inf>R</inf>. The V-baffle with B<inf>R</inf> = 0.2, P<inf>R</inf> = 0.5 provides the highest friction factor and rate of heat transfer at about 18.25 and 4.46 times above the plain tube, respectively. A new modified thermal enhancement factor (TEF) is offered and found that its peak for each case appearing at the lowest Re, is in a range of 2.14–2.34 where the optimum TEF of 2.34 is visible at P<inf>R</inf> = 1.0, B<inf>R</inf> = 0.15. Furthermore, correlations of Nusselt number and friction factor for the present V-baffles are determined. TEF of the current device is found to be superior to that of other enhanced devices in comparison. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Thermal-hydraulic performance enhancement of solar receiver channel by flapped V-baffles(2022-06-01); Skullong, SompolThermal-hydraulic performance investigation in a solar receiver channel equipped with a vortex flow generator, namely, flapped V-shaped baffle (FVB) on the absorber has been experimentally carried out. The purpose of using the square flaps on the V-baffle was to decline the pressure drag by directing the impact air to the absorber surface. The working fluid was air flowing into the uniform heat-fluxed channel at Reynolds number (Re) between 5300 and 23,600. The FVBs with 45°attack angle (α) were placed periodically on the absorber with the upstream V-apex arrangement. The FVB characteristics included three relative baffle-pitches (R<inf>P</inf>) and four flap angles (β)at one relative baffle height (R<inf>B</inf>=0.5) and flap length (b<inf>1</inf>/b = 0.4) were examined to obtain the optimum R<inf>P</inf> and β values. The present investigation has revealed that the FVB gives a considerable decrease in friction loss when compared with the solid V-baffle (β = 0) while the heat transfer rate reduces a little. The FVB with β = 45°, R<inf>P</inf> = 1.5 yields the greatest thermal performance around 2.5 as a result of the injecting air flows from the flap opening aside from the reduced friction loss. For the current experimental data, the Nusselt number and friction factor correlations were determined in the form of a function of the geometric FVB parameters and Re. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
