Abstract
The aim of this research is to conduct an experiment that will evaluate the effect of combining of counter flow air-impinging arrangement and an arc-shaped turbulators over the absorber plate of solar heater. This combination is intended to improve the thermohydraulic performance of the solar air heater. The parameters such as energy transfer and frictional factor are studied at flow Reynolds number varies from 18,000 to 3600, and the influence of a hole jet bore ratio from 0.0430 to 0.109 is considered. At the optimal hole jet bore ratio of 0.0650, the thermo-hydraulic achievement parameter has a value of 1.75, which is the greatest possible value can be attained. When compared to multi-pass V and multiple V roughened solar air heaters based on the THAP, the current work is improved the performance by 55.3 and 32.9%, respectively. Such comparisons clearly demonstrate the superiority of the present work. Furthermore, a relationship is shown between the jet hole bore ratio and the thermohydraulic performance measure, with a maximum divergence of 10%.
期刊介绍:
This journal serves the circulation of new developments in the field of basic research of heat and mass transfer phenomena, as well as related material properties and their measurements. Thereby applications to engineering problems are promoted.
The journal is the traditional "Wärme- und Stoffübertragung" which was changed to "Heat and Mass Transfer" back in 1995.
