Heat transfer coefficient distribution of W and broken W turbulators at high Reynolds numbers

An experimental and numerical study of the convective heat transfer enhancement provided by two rib families (W and Broken W) is presented, covering Reynolds numbers (Re) between 300,000 and 900,000 in a straight channel with a rectangular cross section (AR = 1.29). These high Reynolds numbers were...
