Résumé

Inspired by group movement of animals in nature, a new vortex generator (VG) array deployed in a “V” is proposed in this study, aiming to create constructive interference between vortices and improve VG performance. Its impact on surface convection enhancement is experimentally assessed in a developing channel flow. A large-aspect-ratio duct of 6 mm high is constructed to model a single passage of plain-fin heat exchangers. The frontal air velocity ranges from 0.9 to 2.5 m/s, corresponding to a Reynolds number range based on channel height of 340 to 940. The proposed V-array demonstrates superiority to a conventional multi-row configuration in that it affects a much larger heat transfer area, and the boost effect by the trailing pair is manifest even at relatively small Reynolds numbers. A two-pair V-array deployed at 30º yields 12-36% augmentation in the total heat transfer for the current channel flow, and is considered an appropriate design for implementation in prototype heat exchangers.
