Numerical Investigation and Optimization on Shell Side Performance of A Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger with Inclined Trefoil-Hole Baffles

In this work, a shell and tube heat exchanger with inclined trefoil-hole baffles (STHX-IT) is proposed, and the numerical simulation is conducted to investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics. A shell and tube heat exchanger with segmental baffles (STHX-SG) is also studied for the perfor...
