An Experimental Study of Heat Transfer and Friction Factor Characteristics of Finned Flat Tube Banks with In-Line Tubes Configurations

The experimental study has been made to investigate heat transfer and pressure drop for air flow around finned flat tube banks in-line configurations with laminar forced convection. Measurements were conducted for twelve tubes in the flow direction, four tubes in the row. Four air velocity (0.2, 0.5...

description The experimental study has been made to investigate heat transfer and pressure drop for air flow around finned flat tube banks in-line configurations with laminar forced convection. Measurements were conducted for twelve tubes in the flow direction, four tubes in the row. Four air velocity (0.2, 0.5, 0.8 and 2.0 m/s) identical to the Reynolds number, ReDh based hydraulic diameter varied 124 to 1238. The total heat flux supplies in all tubes change four times from 473.2 to 3871.7 W/m2. The study results indicate that the average heat transfer coefficient,h and the average Nusselt number. of all tubes have increased 113.6%-150.3% with ReDh numbers varying from 124 to 1238 at the fixed heat flux. Likewise, the friction factor decreases 57.7% with a ReDh number range 124-1238.
