Intensification of heat exchange with the help of a flow spin

Abstract

While developing heat exchange equipment, we use quite a wide range of intensification means, some of them being quite conventional for heat and power engineering: the use of turbulent flow mode of energy carriers; the reduction of channels diameter; the choice of optimal shape of channels cross-section; heat transfer surface ribbing; the application of heat carrier turbulence promoters; the utilization of heat exchange rough surfaces; the spinning of heat exchange flows; the application of short channels and heat exchange noncontiguous surfaces; the utilization of curved channels; the installation of cross baffles in a tube bundle etc.
