Abstract
An experimental investigation has been conducted to clarify the effects of blockage ratio on forced convective heat transfer and pressure drag of an isothermal cam-shaped tube in cross-flow of air. The blockage ratio varies between 1.5 ≤ H/Deq ≤ 7 and Reynolds number based on equivalent diameter varies in range of 7.5 × 103 to 17.5 × 103. Results show that by increasing blockage ratio from 1.5 to 7, drag coefficient of the cam-shaped tube decreases about 55 % and increasing Reynolds number from 7.5 × 103 to 17.5 × 103 results in 40–48 % increment in Nusselt number. For better comparison, ratio of pressure drag over heat transfer of cam-shaped tube is compared with circular tube. In all ranges of Reynolds number and blockage ratios, thermal–hydraulic of cam-shaped tube is about 40–171 % greater than circular tube.
