Résumé

Three-dimensional laminar forced convective flow and entropy generation in a 180-deg curved rectangular duct with longitudinal ribs equipped on the heated wall are investigated by numerical methods. The effects of rib size are particularly highlighted in the present paper. The results reveal that the addition of rib can effectively reduce the entropy generation from heat transfer irreversibility since the secondary vortices are augmented by the rib, through which the heat transfer performance is enhanced, in turn making the temperature gradient become smoother. These results provide worthwhile information for considerations of adding ribs on a curved duct and the determinations of rib sizes from view point of thermodynamic second law.
