Abstract A mathematical analysis of the heat transfer enhancement, thermal performance and flow configurations in a heat exchanger square duct with
diagonal inserted plate vortex generators is presented. The 30o V–shaped baffles are modified and placed on the double sides of the thin plate or
frame (with no plate) which inserted diagonally in the square duct. The effects of blockage ratio (b/H, BR), the pitch ratio (p/H, PR), flow direction
(V–Downstream and V–Upstream) and configuration of inserting plate are investigated for Reynolds number based on the hydraulic diameter of the
square duct, Dh, Re = 100 –… More >
