Laminar heat transfer and friction characteristics of microencapsulated phase change material slurry in a circular tube with twisted tape inserts

It is novel and better method that microencapsulated phase change material (MPCM) slurry and the tube with twisted tape inserts are adopted together to enhance convective heat transfer. In this paper, numerical analyses were carried out to study laminar heat transfer and friction characteristics of MPCM slurry in a circular tube with twisted tape inserts. It is found that the MPCM slurry in the tube with twisted tape insert leads to the best performance of convective heat transfer for the bigger apparent specific heat and the intensive swirl flow. Furthermore, the modified average Nusselt number increases with decreasing bulk Stefan number, twisted ratio and increasing Re, while the friction factor increases with increasing Re and decreasing twisted ratio. It is also found that the heat transfer enhanced efficiency increases with increasing Re and decreasing Ste_b, and the heat transfer enhancement effects of twisted tape for low Ste_b slurry are better than that for high Ste_b slurry. Moreover, the thermal-hydraulic performance ratios increase to a peak, then decrease gradually with increasing Re for different twist ratio. The performance ratio increases with decreasing the twist ratio only in a definite Re range, and the Re range decreases with decreasing twist ratio.

Heat transfer enhancement and pressure drop of the horizontal concentric tube with twisted wires brush inserts

In the present study, the heat transfer characteristics and the pressure drop of the horizontal concentric tube with twisted wires brush inserts are investigated. The inner diameters of the inner and outer tubes are 15.78 and 25.40 mm, respectively. The twisted wire brushes are fabricated by winding a 0.2 mm diameter of the copper wires over a 2 mm diameter of two twisted iron core-rod with three different twisted wires densities of 100, 200, 300 wires per centimeter. The plain tube with full-length twisted wires brush and regularly spaced twisted wires brush with 30 cm spacer length inserts are tested. Cold and hot water are used as working fluids in shell side and tube-side, respectively. The test runs are performed at the hot water Reynolds number ranging between 6000 and 20000. The inlet cold and hot water temperatures are 15, 20 °C, and between 40 and 50 °C, respectively. Effect of twisted wires density, inlet fluid temperature, and relevant parameters on heat transfer characteristics and pressure drop are considered. Twisted wire brushes insert have a large effect on the enhancement of heat transfer, however, the pressure drops also increase.

Thermohydraulics of turbulent flow through a round tube by a peripherally-cut twisted tape with an alternate axis

The effect of peripherally-cut twisted tape with alternate axis (PT-A) on the fluid flow and heat transfer enhancement characteristic in a uniform heat flux circular tube has been experimentally investigated. Experiments were conducted using water as a testing fluid in a turbulent tube where the Reynolds number was varied from 5000 to 20,000. Peripherally-cut twisted tape (PT) and typical twisted tape (TT) were also tested in similar conditions, for comparison. Evidently, the heat transfer rates in the tube fitted with the PT-A, PT and TT are respectively enhanced up to 184%, 102% and 57% of that in the plain tube. In the present Reynolds number range tested, the PT-A, PT and TT offer the maximum thermal performances at constant pumping power of 1.25, 1.11 and 1.02, respectively. In addition, the correlations of the Nusselt number, friction factor and thermal performance were developed for the tube equipped with the PT-A in terms of peripherally-cut tape width ratio (w/W), Reynolds number (Re) and Prandtl number (Pr).     

Heat transfer performance evaluation for turbulent flow through a tube with twisted wire brush inserts

In the present study, the heat transfer performance and friction factor characteristics in a circular tube fitted with twisted wire brush inserts were investigated experimentally. The twisted wire brush inserts were fabricated with four different twisted wire densities of 100, 150, 200, and 250 wires per centimeter by winding a 1 mm diameter of the copper wire over a 5 mm diameter of two twisted iron core-rods. Heat transfer and friction factor data in tubes were examined for Reynolds number ranging from 7,200 to 50,200. The results indicated that the presence of twisted wire brush inserts led to a large effect on the enhancement of heat transfer with corresponding increase in friction factor over the plain tube. The Nusselt number and friction factor of using the twisted wire brush inserts were found to be increased up to 2.15 and 2.0 times, respectively, than those over the plain tube values. Furthermore, the heat transfer performance was evaluated to assess the real benefits of using those type of inserts and the performance was achieved 1.85 times higher compared to the plain tube based on the constant blower power. Finally, correlations were developed based on the data generated from this work to predict the heat transfer, friction factor, and thermal performance factor for turbulent flow through a circular tube fitted with the twisted wire brush inserts in terms of wire density (y), Reynolds number (Re), and Prandtl number (Pr).     

Investigation of twisted tape inserted solar water heaters—heat transfer, friction factor and thermal performance results

Heat transfer in a solar water heater could be enhanced by means of twisted tapes, inserted inside the fluid flow tubes, which induce swirl flow and act as turbulence promoters. Experimental investigations for a solar water heater with twisted tape inserts having twist pitch to tube diameter ratio ranging from 3–12 have been carried out for varying mass flow rates. The results on heat transfer and friction data have been found to compare well with available results. Within the range of investigated parameters, the heat transfer in the twisted tape insert collectors has been found to increase by 18–70%, whereas the pressure drop increased by 87–132%, as compared to plane collectors. An expression correlating the Nusselt numbers in twisted tape and plane collectors, the twist pitch ratio has been developed in the form of Nu_s/Nu=1.3+2.88/y, which predicts the heat transfer within the range of the present investigation. Results conclude that such collectors would be preferable for higher grade energy collection as it is also at higher rate.Solar water heaters having twisted tape inserts inside the flow tubes perform better than the plane ones. It has been observed that heat losses are reduced (due to the lower value of the plate temperature) consequently increasing the thermal performance by about 30% over the plane solar water heaters under the same operating conditions. The effect of twisted-tape geometry, flow Reynolds number and intensity of solar radiation on the thermal performance of the solar water heater has been presented. It has been found that the twisted-tape collectors perform remarkably better in the lower range of flow Reynolds number (Re≈12,000), beyond which the increase in thermal performance is monotonous. It has also been found that such collectors might perform even better at higher values of intensity of solar radiation.
