Static mixers and multifunctional heat exchangers/reactors (MHE/R) are qualified as efficient
receptacles for processes including physical or chemical transformations accompanied by …

This review article reports the influence of channel zone related geometrical parameters
such as corrugated channel and flow disruption (FD) on the hydrothermal performance (HP) …

The potential industrial applications of curved tubes for single-and two-phase flow are
reviewed within the context of physics of flow, trends in the development of technology, and …

Power plants using air-cooled condensers suffer a 5–10% plant-level efficiency penalty
compared to plants with once-through cooling systems or wet cooling towers. In this study, a …

The objective of this study is to characterize a new heating process in fluids, chaotic
advection. The main mechanism generating this flow is the production of spatially chaotic …

Flatter velocity profiles and more uniform thermal environments are extremely desirous
factors for improved performance in flow reactors and heat exchangers. One means of …

Double-pipe heat exchangers have been widely used in various industries, and the efficient
design of these heat exchangers has received a significant research impetus. Chaotic …

We analyze the phenomenon of steady heat transfer enhancement due to chaotic particle
paths in steady, laminar flow through a tube. The performances of two different coils, one …

Even though the first theoretical example of chaotic advection was a three-dimensional flow
(Hénon 1966), the number of theoretical studies addressing chaos and mixing in three …

The behavior of air flows in complex Heat exchanger passages is reviewed with a focus on
the heat transfer effects of boundary-layer development, turbulence, spanwise and …
