Optimization of the flow guiding fins configuration and tube arrangements in a shell and tube heat exchanger: coupling response surface methodology and CFD

Optimization of the flow guiding fins configuration and tube arrangements in a shell and tube heat exchanger: coupling response surface methodology and CFD

In the present study, the flow and heat transfer characteristics around a bundle of cam-shaped tubes have been numerically investigated using the finite volume method (FVM) in laminar and turbulent flows at different Reynolds numbers (Re). To increase heat transfer, flow guide fins have been used in...
