Abstract

For the successful design of heat exchangers, it is very important to understand local heat transfer characteristics on the circular cylinder of the cross flow heat exchangers. In this study, the heat exchanger using screen is developed to enhance heat transfer. The naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to measure the local heat transfer coefficients in the heat exchanger. The experiments are performed for single circular tube, in-line array tube bank with and without heat transfer promoter. Local Nusselt numbers of single circular tube and tube bank with heat transfer promoter are investigated and compared to those of without heat transfer promoter.
