Abstract: The present work investigates the effects of various guide vane designs on the heat transfer enhancement of rotating U-duct configuration with parallel 45-deg ribs. The ribs were installed on the bottom wall of the channel, ...

Abstract: The present work investigates the effects of buoyancy and wall heating condition on the thermal performance of a rotating two-pass square channel with smooth walls. The U-bend channel has a square cross section with a ...

Abstract: This study presents findings on combined effects of Reynolds number and rotational effect for a two-pass channel with a 180-deg turn, numerically and experimentally. To have a better understanding of the flow behavior and ...
