ShareSummary
Numerical analysis of horizontal tube falling film evaporation over metal foam wrapped evaporator tubes was carried out and found to enhance the heat transfer. Metal foam characteristics like porosity and permeability was optimized to give maximum heat transfer rate. Computational analysis were carried out using commercial software. Optimization of foam characteristic was carried out at falling film Reynolds number of 650.
