Effect of various configurations of swirl generator system on the hydrothermal performance of the flat-plate solar collector

This is a numerical study that analysis the heat extraction potential of solar collector tubes by assembling a couple of nozzles at the sealed end of the pipe to make swirl flow. Swirl flow intensifies the turbulence rate which augments heat transfer by ruffling the boundary layer. To this end, sev...
