Thermal performance enhancement of flat plate solar air heater using transverse U-shaped turbulator - A numerical study
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of U-shaped rib turbulator on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of flat plate solar air heater using two dimensional CFD analysis. The analysis is carried out using the CFD software tool ANSYS Fluent for the flow Reynolds number ranging from...
