A Review on Design, Development & Testing of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger With Heat Transfer Enhancement Liners

Abstract

Heat transfer augmentation techniques are used to increase rate of heat transfer without affecting much the overall performance of the system. Heat transfer augmentation techniques are commonly used in areas such as heating and cooling in evaporators, air-conditioning equipment, thermal power plants, space vehicle, automobile etc. This presentation contains literature survey of enhancement techniques in heat transfer using inserts. A novel method is proposed in the form of fin holders with oblique fins to enhance the heat transfer in double pipe heat exchanger.
