Abstract
Numerical study of the influence of profile height on the characteristics of a heat exchanger with corrugated fins
Incoming article date: 23.05.2024Using numerical modeling, a study of heat transfer and hydrodynamics in plate heat exchangers with corrugated fins was carried out, while the height of the corrugation profile varied from 2 to 4 mm. The influence of profile height on heat flow and pressure drop was studied. It was revealed that an increase in the profile height leads to an increase in heat flow up to 34.05% and pressure drop up to 54.54%.
