Effect of the Absorber Plat Groove Roughness on Performance of Solar Air Heaters
Abstract: An experimental investigation on heat and fluid flow characteristics of fully developed turbulent flow in a rectangular duct having repeated integral transverse chamfered rib-groove roughness on one broad wall has been carried out. The flow Reynolds number of the duct varied in the range of approximately 3000–21000, most suitable for solar air heater. Experimentation has been done on chamfered rib-groove roughness having 60° V groove varying relative roughness pitch of …

Investigation of Heat Transfer in Concentric Annuli with Perforated Inserts
Abstract: The increasing necessity for saving energy and material imposed by the diminishing world resources and environmental concerns have prompted the development of more effective heat-transfer equipment with improved heat-transfer rates. The hydrodynamic boundary layer acts as main resistance for the transfer of heat from tube surface to fluid or vice-versa and many researchers are trying to improve the convective heat transfer rate with inserts in tubes to break the boundary …
