Influence of Geometric Parameters of Alternate Axis Twisted Baffles on the Local Heat Transfer Distribution and Pressure Drop in a Rectangular Channel Using a Transient Liquid Crystal Technique

Influence of Geometric Parameters of Alternate Axis Twisted Baffles on the Local Heat Transfer Distribution and Pressure Drop in a Rectangular Channel Using a Transient Liquid Crystal Technique

This paper reports the effects of alternate axis twisted baffle geometric parameters on the heat transfer and flow characteristics within rectangular channels. In our experiments we used modified shapes of alternate axis twisted baffles according to relative pitch ratios (<i>s</i>/<i&...
