Improving heat transfer performance in two-pass ribbed channel by the optimized secondary flow via bend shape modification

The heat transfer performance and friction loss of two-pass ribbed channels are highly influenced by the combined effect of rib orientation and bend shape. This paper, for the first time, numerically investigates this effect for four rib orientations, two rib angles and eight different bend shapes a...
