In this study, a particle swarm optimization approach is employed to determine the optimal
micro-fin geometry which maximizes the thermal efficiency of micro-finned tubes in the …

Microfin tubes are widely used to enhance heat transfer in heat exchangers in order to
reduce volumes, costs and refrigerant charge. Much experimental work has been published …

The single-phase pressure drop and heat transfer in an internal helically-finned tube and a
plain tube are measured for aqueous ethylene glycol. Pressure drop data are collected …

Finned-tube heat exchangers (FTHXs) are currently extensively utilized in residential air-
source heat pumps (ASHPs), but their escalating costs pose an urgent issue needing …

This paper describes the details of the design of a solar water disinfection system based on
a small-scale linear Fresnel reflector. The proposed system consists of a small-scale linear …
