Local Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop in a Rotating Two-Pass Ribbed Rectangular Channel

The influences of rotation and uneven heating condition as well as passage aspect ratio on the local heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop in a rotating, two pass ribroughened (rib height e/DH≈0.27; rib pitch p/e=8) rectangular channel with a crosssection aspect ratio of 3 was studied for Reyn...

description The influences of rotation and uneven heating condition as well as passage aspect ratio on the local heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop in a rotating, two pass ribroughened (rib height e/DH≈0.27; rib pitch p/e=8) rectangular channel with a crosssection aspect ratio of 3 was studied for Reynolds numbers from 5000 to 25,000 and rotation numbers from 0 to 0.24. Regionally averaged Nusselt number variations along the duct have been determined over the trailing and leading surfaces for two pass straight channels and U-bend region. Implementing with the data from Hsieh and Liu (1996) for AR=1 and 1.5 with p/e=5 and e/DH=0.17 and 0.20, passage aspect ratio effect was further examined. Furthermore, data for 180∘ U-bend region with ribroughened turbulator on heat transfer were also measured. It was found that a complicated three-dimensional accelerated flow and secondary flow in this U-bend region caused higher heat transfer on both leading/trailing walls. Enhancement performance ratios are also presented and discussed. Results again indicate a slight decrease in heat transfer coefficient for an increase in passage aspect ratio as compared to those of previous studies.
