Investigation of Thermal-Flow Characteristics of Pipes with Helical Micro-Fins of Variable Height

Investigation of Thermal-Flow Characteristics of Pipes with Helical Micro-Fins of Variable Height

The results of numerical investigations of heat transfer and pressure drops in a channel with 30° helical micro-fins are presented. The main aim of the analysis is to examine the influence of the height of the micro-fins on the heat-flow characteristics of the channel. For the tested pipe with a dia...
