Résumé

In the study, in order to increase heat transfer in concentric double-pipe heat exchangers by passive method, a snail mounted at inlet of the inner pipe and assumed as acting as a swirl generator was used. In the experimental set-up, cold air in ambient conditions was passed through the inner pipe while hot water was flowing through the annulus. The effects of a snail on the heat transfer and pressure drop were investigated for parallel and counterflow. An increase in Nusselt number of up to 120% was obtained in the swirl flow for counterflow and 45° swirling angle. The swirl flow effect of the snail had little effect on pressure drop, for a high increase in heat transfer.
