EFFECTS OF FIN PATTERN ON THE AIR-SIDE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT IN PLATE FINNED-TUBE HEAT EXCHANGERS.

Author(s) : BEECHER D. T., FAGAN T. J.

Summary

THE GEOMETRIC PARAMETERS CONSIDERED INCLUDED TUBE DIAMETER, TRANSVERSE TUBE SPACING, LONGITUDINAL TUBE SPACING, NUMBER OF TUBE ROWS, AND FIN SPACING. THE EFFECTS OF FIN PATTERN DEPTH AND NUMBER OF FIN PATTERNS PER LONGITUDINAL TUBE ROW WERE INVESTIGATED FOR A PATTERN CONSISTING OF CORRUGATIONS OF TRIANGULAR CROSS-SECTION TRANSVERSE TO THE DIRECTION OF AIR FLOW. THE HEAT TRANSFER DATA WERE CORRELATED IN TERMS OF THE DIMENSIONLESS HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT.
