Since heat exchangers are composed of bank of tubes, the knowledge on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the tube bank are required for the optimum design and selection of heat exchangers. In this paper, the turbulent flow fields and heat transfers normal to a staggered tube bank are solved numerically employing K-.epsilon. 2 equation turbulence model and non-orthogonal coordinate transformation for the treatment of curved surface of tubes. Predicted mean Nusselt numbers of tube bank agree reasonably well with Grimision's correlation

An experimental study has been carried out in order to investigate the heat storage characteristics for a latent heat storage tank with horizontal shell and tube type. The heat exchanger consisted of horizontal cylindrical capsules with a staggered tube bank layout. Based on the obtained data, the effects of flow rate and inlet fluid temperature on the melting time and heat storage rates were examined. It is found that the melting time decreased with increase of the flow rate and the inlet temperature. Results also show that at the initial stage of heat transfer the heat storage rate represents the maximum value and rapidly decreases.

An experimental study has been carried out in order to investigate the heat storage characteristics for a latent heat storage tank with horizontal shell and tube type. The heat storage tank consists of cylindrical capsules with a staggered tube bank. The effects of flow rates and initial temperature differences on the melting time and heat storage rates are examined. It is found that the melting time decreases with increase of the flow rates and initial temperature differences. Results also show that the time-averaged overall heat transfer coefficients increase in proportion to the increase of flow rates and initial temperature differences.

Fouling is very serious problem in heat exchanger because it rapidly deteriorates the performance of heat exchanger. Cross-flow heat exchanger with vortex generators is developed, which enhance heat transfer and reduce fouling. In the present heat exchanger, shell and baffle are removed from the conventional shell-and-tube heat exchanger. The naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to measure the local heat transfer coefficients. The experiments are performed for single circular tube, staggered array tube bank and in-line array tube bank with and without vortex generators. Local and average Nusselt numbers of single tube and tube bank with vortex generator are investigated and compared to those of without vortex generator.

An experimental study has been performed to investigated the forced convection heat transfer characteristics of 6 circular cylinders in staggered arrangement in a cross flow of air. The water scale deposited on condenser wall of power plant was used to investigate the effect of roughness of scaled surfaces. The relative roughness*average diameter of scale/cylinder diameter) was in a range of k/d=0.0066, 0.0111, 0.0167, 0.0222 and 0.0278. The cylinder spacings(L/d) varies from 1.5 to 4.0 where L denote the cylinder spacings along and normal to the upstream uniform flow direction. The Reynolds number was varied in a range of 10, 000$\leq$ Re $\leq$ 50,000. The local and mean Nusselt numbers were investigated as a function of scale roughness, the cylinder spacing and Reynolds number. The results are compared with those of clean cylinder and inline tube bank, subsequently the mean fouling resistance over the entire circumference was estimated from those results as a function of scale roughness, the cylinder spacing and Reynolds number.

Turbulent flow and heat transfer characteristics around staggered tube banks were studied using the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations and energy equation governing a steady incompressible flow, which were reformulated in a non-orthogonal coordinate system with cartesian velocity components and discretized by the finite volume method with a non-staggered variable arrangement. The predicted turbulent kinetic energy using RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$ model was lower than that of standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model but showed same result for mean flow field quantities. The prediction of the skin friction coefficient using RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$ model showed better trend with experimental data than standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model result. The inclined flow showed higher velocity and skin friction coefficient than transverse flow because of extra strain rate ($\frac{{\partial}w}{{\partial}y}$). Also, this was why the inclined flow showed higher local heat transfer coefficient than the transverse flow.

본 연구에서는 엇갈린형 관군에 대해 ANSYS FLUENT v.14의 SST 난류모델을 적용하여 가로피치, 튜브표면, 와류발생기위치 등의 변화에 따른 열전달 및 압력강하 특성을 이론적으로 해석하였다. CFD 해석시 튜브표면의 온도는 363 K, 입구측 공기온도는 313 K이고 입구측 속도는 5 m/s에서 10 m/s까지 가정하였다. 그 해석결과로서 열전달계수는 가로피치에 대한 영향은 큰 차이가 없었고, 튜브표면의 돌기형상은 열전달 및 압력강하 특성에서 원형이 톱니형보다 적절하게 나타내었으며, 와류발생기의 설치 경우에는 열전달특성이 튜브의 전방부 위치가 후방부 위치보다 약 4.6% 정도로 우수함을 보였다.

A closed circuit cooling tower having high temperature of cooling water and small water flow rate is investigated. To study the characteristics of the heat transfer of heat exchanges in a cooling tower with multi paths a numerical method is used. The results show that the staggered tube arrangements in a bank show better performance than aligned ones for temperature variation with various outer diameters of tube bundles. In case of one pass, the 15.88 mm tube case shows about 9% better performance than the 25.4 mm tube case. In two paths, the tube outside diameter of 15.88 mm show about 14.4% better results than the 25.4 mm diameter case.

A numerical study has been conducted to investigate the effect of tube arrangement on the heat transfer and the pressure loss for cross flow heat exchangers. By defining a transverse deviation factor, ${\varepsilon}_t=l_T/S_T$, the flow pattern and the heat transfer characteristics are compared for selected ${\varepsilon}_t$ values of 0.0(in-lined), 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5(staggered) by using a commercial software. Computational domain includes 1 pitch in the transverse direction and 5 pitches in the flow direction with due periodic boundary conditions.

본 연구에서는 엇갈림 배열 관군 사이를 전기 전도성 유체가 흐를 때 외부에서 인가한 자기장의 영향으로 변화하는 열유동 특성을 수치해석적으로 연구하였다. Reynolds 수 50과 100의 비정상 층류 관군 유동에서 외부 인가 자기장의 세기를 의미하는 Hartmann 수를 0에서 100까지 점진적으로 변화시킴에 따라 관군 내부의 열유동 특성을 관찰하였다. Hartmann 수가 증가함에 따라 인가 자기장의 영향으로 관표면의 속도 경계층이 얇아지고, 유동 박리를 후류로 지연시키며, 관 후면에 형성되는 재순환 영역의 크기가 줄어드는 것을 관찰하였다. 최종적으로 열유동 변형에 의한 결과적 국소 및 평균 Nusselt 수 변화 특성을 제시하였다.
