Summary

A new type of compact heat exchanger is suggested, and the fundamental heat transfer performance is studied chiefly from experimental aspects. The heat exchanger consists of fine tubes (outer diameter of about 1 mm) and woven threads (diameter of about 0.3 mm); the latter play a combined role of both turbulence promoter and fin. The maximum heat transfer coefficient obtained in the experiment is 14-fold larger than that around a cylinder without threads.
