Evaluation of the Efficiency of Heat Exchanger Channels with Different Flow Turbulence Methods Using the Entropy Generation Minimization Criterion by Piotr Bogusław Jasiński, Grzegorz Górecki, Zbigniew Cebulski

“…The aim of this research was to assess the effectiveness of two channels that intensify heat transfer in different ways: with an insert (disrupting the flow in the pipe core) and with internal fins (disrupting the flow at the pipe wall), and to compare the results using the same criterion: the EGM method. The tested insert consisted of spaced streamline-shaped flow turbulizing the elements fixed in the axis of the pipe and spaced at equal distances from each other. …”
