TLDR
In this article, rotation-induced secondary flow and mixed convection heat transfer in the entrance region of rectangular ducts rotating about a parallel axis are investigated. And the authors show that the rotational effect in an iso-flux duct is more significant than that in an isothermal flux, while the effect vanishes in isothermal ducts.

Rotating metal foam structures for performance enhancement of double-pipe heat exchangers

TL;DR: In this article, a compound enhancement is proposed incorporating both active and passive methods to enhance the amount of heat transported in a double-pipe heat exchanger by using metal foam guiding vanes, which are fixed obliquely and rotating coaxially.

The relationship between absolute vorticity flux along the main flow and convection heat transfer in a tube inserting a twisted tape

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between the intensity of the secondary flow and laminar convective heat transfer was studied using a numerical method, and it was shown that the cross-averaged absolute vorticity flux in the main flow direction can reflect the intensity intensity of secondary flow.

Combined mixed convection and radiation heat transfer in rectangular ducts rotating about a parallel axis

TL;DR: In this article, the combined heat transfer of convection and radiation in rectangular ducts rotating in a parallel mode was investigated numerically in detail, and the coupled momentum and energy equations were solved by the DuFort-Frankel numerical scheme to examine the interactions of the convection with radiation.
