THEORETICAL MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF HEAT EXCHANGE IN PIPES WITH TRIANGULAR AND SQUARE TURBULATORS WITH d/D=0.95÷0.90, t/D=0.25÷1.00 AND HIGH REYNOLDS NUMBERS Re=106

Abstract

Mathematical modeling of heat exchange process in straight and round horizontal pipes with protrusions and d/D=0.95...0.90, t/D=0.25...1.00 of triangular and square sections with large Reynolds numbers (RE=106) are carried out on the basis of multiblock computing technologies based on solutions of factored and finite-volume algorithm of RANS equations and energy equations. It is shown that for higher square protrusions and at higher Reynolds numbers, a limited increase in NU/NUgl is accompanied by a significant increase in relative hydro resist ance in accordance with the higher Reynolds number; for triangular turbulators, this persists and even deepens.
