Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study of mixed convection heat transfer in vertical helically coiled tube heat exchangers
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of coil pitch and tube diameters on shell-side heat transfer coefficient of a coil-in-shell heat exchanger were investigated for both laminar and turbulent flow inside coil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of homotopy perturbation method in nonlinear heat conduction and convection equations
TL;DR: In this article, homotopy perturbation method is used to solve for the temperature distribution in a lumped system of combined convection-radiation and also a nonlinear equation of the steady conduction in a slab with variable thermal conductivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental study of thermal performance of shell-and-coil heat exchangers
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental investigation of the mixed convection heat transfer in a coil-in-shell heat exchanger is reported for various Reynolds and Rayleigh numbers, various tube-to-coil diameter ratios and dimensionless coil pitch.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal Performance of a Novel Heat Transfer Fluid Containing Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes and Microencapsulated Phase Change Materials
TL;DR: In this paper, three new heat transfer fluids consisting of combinations of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and microencapsulated phase change materials (MPCMs) were formulated, and tested in a turbulent flow heat transfer loop.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of geometry effects on the performance of a compact louvered heat exchanger
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of tests were conducted to examine the geometrical parameters of louver pitch, louver arrangement and number of louvered regions, and the results from this investigation indicate that the configuration of the louvered fins has the dominant influence on the heat transfer and pressure drop from that louver.
