Control of electrohydrodynamic heat transfer enhancement rates in a tube-bundle gas-to-gas heat exchanger.

Summary

The control of heat transfer enhancement rates on the tube and shell sides of a bank of seven tubes in a shell-and-tube, gas-to-gas heat exchanger was investigated experimentally with the use of the electrohydrodynamic technique. It was found that enhancements were highest at lowest Reynolds number and at the highest applied current. The simultaneous excitation of the tube and shell sides led to maximum enhancement in the overall heat transfer coefficient.
