Experimental Research of Heat Transfer Enhancement of the Tube with Disturbed Flow Components Plug-In

Abstract:

Based on Field Synergy Principle and orthogonal experiment design, nine arranged metal-wire inserts(that is high porosity porous inserts) is determined to experiment. The results showed that heat transfer performance of the pipe that metal-wire inserts is rooted at the core region of pipe is better than the pipe that metal-wire inserts is rooted at the edge region of pipe., location and curve radian can impact heat exchange significantly. Under the given experimental condition, the heat transfer quantity increased by 120 - 520%, overall heat transfer coefficient increased by 126 - 610%. Through enhancing heat transfer performance evaluation criterion (PEC) comprehensive evaluation, it is concluded that when the Reynolds number Re changes in 338 ~ 6931, the PEC value of 0.89 ~ 5.97.The calculation formula of the drag coefficient is obtained by regression analysis.
