Optimization of vortex generators positions and angles in fin-tube compact heat exchanger at low Reynolds number.

In the last few decades, augmentation of heat transfer has emerged as an important research topic. Although many promising heat transfer enhancement techniques have been proposed, such as the use of longitudinal vortex generators, few researches deal with thermal optimization. In the present work, i...
