Abstract
A novel hollow shell-and-tube heat exchanger with helical elastic coiled tubes was designed to improve the overall heat transfer performance. Different numbers of helical baffles installed on the hollow helical elastic tubes (HHETs) heat exchanger were compared with the HHET heat exchanger without a baffle. The fluid–solid coupling method was provided to study the effects of the entrance velocity and baffle number on the performances of heat transfer and vibration-enhanced heat transfer. Based on the numerical results, the performances of vibration and heat transfer become more obvious by increasing the entrance velocity. Compared with the HHET heat exchanger without a baffle, adding a baffle or baffles on the HHET heat exchanger can remarkably make the fluid flow more consistent. Whereas a higher number of baffles can weaken the vibration and heat transfer performance of the novel heat exchange, the performance evaluation criteria of the HHET heat exchanger with one baffle, two baffles, and four baffles is improved by 2.04, 4.37, and 2.3%, respectively. It indicates that adding a baffle or baffles to the novel heat exchanger can effectively improve the overall thermal and hydraulic characteristics of the novel heat exchanger.
期刊介绍:
This Journal is devoted to the advancement of the science and technology of thermophysics and heat transfer through the dissemination of original research papers disclosing new technical knowledge and exploratory developments and applications based on new knowledge. The Journal publishes qualified papers that deal with the properties and mechanisms involved in thermal energy transfer and storage in gases, liquids, and solids or combinations thereof. These studies include aerothermodynamics; conductive, convective, radiative, and multiphase modes of heat transfer; micro- and nano-scale heat transfer; nonintrusive diagnostics; numerical and experimental techniques; plasma excitation and flow interactions; thermal systems; and thermophysical properties. Papers that review recent research developments in any of the prior topics are also solicited.
