Heat Transfer Enhancement in a Tube Fitted with a Circular Ring As Vortex Generator: A CFD Analysis
Keywords:
CFD, Heat Transfer Enhancement, Inserts, Circular Ring, Ring Inserts.Abstract
The rate of heat transfer, which is dependent on a number of factors like Reynolds number, fluid properties, and surface features, can be increased by using various techniques. In this research, an experimental analysis was conducted on a smooth circular tube and subsequently on a tube fitted with inserts. During the experiment Reynolds number was varied from range of 15,000 to 25,000, while a maintaining heat flux constant along the tube circumference.
