Numerical Investigation of Thermal-Flow Characteristics in Heat Exchanger with Various Tube Shapes

In this study, eight configurations of oval and flat tubes in annular finned-tube thermal devices are examined and compared with the conventional circular tube. The objective is to assess the effect of tube flatness and axis ratio of the oval tube on thermal-flow characteristics of a three-row stagg...
