Summary
Vortex tube is a simple device usually used to obtain desired hot and cold gas and is widely used for spot cooling in industry. This pipe with its interesting function has been studied using different advanced numerical and experimental methods which are usually complex and expensive. In the current study, using a number of CFD simulations to provide interpolation table and define two correlations for the velocity magnitude to the normal velocity, a simple thermodynamic approach is introduced to analyze a vortex tube numerically. The results of the proposed algorithm are verified with the experimental and numerical studies. This approach is a proper method to optimize cooling performance of a vortex tube at different operating conditions. In the current study genetic algorithm is used for optimization. Reasonable results will be obtained if appropriate constraints are applied.
