Numerical Studies on the Effect of Different Obstruction Geometries on Performance of Rectangular Channel Air Heaters

Air heaters have poor thermal efficiency. Flow obstructions improve the efficiency of the air heater by enhancing heat transfer and disrupting the formation of the laminar sub-layer. In the present study, a rectangular channel of aspect ratio 6 and obstructions of various geometry (triangular, recta...
