Author(s) : WANG C. C., JANG J. Y., CHIOU N. F.

Type of article: Article

Summary

A generalized heat transfer and friction correlation for wavy fin geometry is proposed from a total of 27 samples of fin-and-tube heat exchangers. The proposed heat transfer correlation can describe 95.1% of the test data within plus or minus 15% with a mean deviation of 6.44% while the proposed friction correlation can describe 97.3% of the results within plus or minus 15% with a mean deviation of 5.01%.
