Abstract
Heat exchangers are the important engineering systems with wide variety of applications including power plants, nuclear reactors, refrigeration and air-conditioning systems, heat recovery systems, chemical processing and food industries. Helical coil configuration is very effective for heat exchangers and chemical reactors because they can accommodate a large heat transfer area in a small space, with high heat transfer coefficients. This paper deals with the parametric analysis of the helical coiled heat exchanger with various correlations given by different researchers for specific conditions. The parametric analysis of these various correlations with specific data is presented in this paper.

Experimental Investigation of Coil Curvature Effect on Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop Characteristics of Shell and Coil Heat Exchanger

TL;DR: In this article, the average Nusselt numbers of the two sides of the heat exchangers and the overall heat transfer coefficients increased by increasing coil curvature ratio, and a significant increase of 33.2-7.7% was obtained in the HCT-Fanning friction factor when δ increases from 0.0392 to 0.1194 within the investigated ranges of different parameters.

TL;DR: In this paper, it is assumed that the actual secondary motion is replaced by a uniform stream; conditions in the central part of the section mainly determines the motion and the appropriate velocity of the stream can be determined from the relation that has been found experimentally between the rate of flow in a curved pipe and the pressure gradient.
