Abstract Numerical examinations on flow and heat transfer behaviors in a square channel heat exchanger equipped with various configurations of V-wavy
plate are performed. The pitch-to-channel height ratios, wavy height-to-channel height ratios and flow directions of the test section are investigated
for the Reynolds number in the range of 100 – 1000 (laminar flow regime). The finite volume method is selected for the present investigation. The
results are reported in terms of flow and heat transfer mechanisms in the channel. The thermal performance assessments of the square channel fitted
with the V-wavy plate are also concluded. More >
