[In Japanese. / En japonais.]

Author(s) : YANG K., YOSHIKAWA H., OTA T.

Type of article: Article

Summary

Numerical simulations have been carried out on staggered elliptic tube banks at low Reynolds numbers. Details of the flow and heat transfer characteristics in the tube banks were clarified for the fully developed flow state under conditions of uniform heat flux. The pressure loss coefficient, the local and mean Nusselt numbers, and the skin friction coefficient are presented along with the flow and temperature fields. The effects of the longitudinal and transversal pitch ratios and the axis ratio upon them are clarified.
