A review of flow and heat transfer characteristics in curved tubes
Paisarn Naphon,Somchai Wongwises +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a literature review on heat transfer and flow characteristics of single-phase and two-phase flow in curved tubes is presented, where three main categories of curved tubes; helically coiled tubes, spirally coiling tubes, and other coiled tube, are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secondary Flow in Sharp Open-channel Bends
TL;DR: The occurrence of the outer-bank cell is shown to be not just due to flow instability, but also to kinetic energy input from turbulence, which shows that turbulence plays a minor role in the generation of the centre-region cell, which is mainly due to the centrifugal force.

Laminar flow in a square duct of strong curvature
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used laser-Doppler anemometry to quantify the velocity field of water in a 90° bend of 40 x 40mm cross-section; the bend had a mean radius of 92mm and was located downstream of a 1[sdot ]8m and upstream of a 2m straight section.
Journal ArticleDOI
A bifurcation study of laminar flow in a curved tube of rectangular cross- section
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for a square cross-section, the transition is a result of a complex structure of multiple, symmetric and asymmetric solutions, which is revealed by solving extended systems of equations for steady-state, fully developed, laminar flow, in a finite-element approximation, to locate exactly the positions of singular points.
Journal ArticleDOI
Passive micromixers for applications in the microreactor and μTAS fields
TL;DR: In this paper, an overview is given of current developments in micromixing technology, where the emphasis is on liquid mixing in passive MCs, and four important principles are discussed in some detail: hydrodynamic focusing, flow separation, chaotic advection and split-and-recombine flows.
