Thermo-hydraulic performance improvement of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger using perforated double-segmental baffles: A comparative CFD investigation

This study numerically investigates the thermo-hydraulic performance of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger (STHX) with three different baffle arrangements: conventional single-segmental (CSS), perforated double-segmental (PDS), and modified geometric baffle (MGB). Three-dimensional,...

Effects of baffle configurations on heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids in a shell-and-tube heat exchanger: A numerical approach

In the present study, four heat exchanger configurations of shell-side circular and hexagonal tube arrangements with segmental and staggered baffles are considered for the assessment of the heat-transfer performance on the shell side. A steady, pressure-based ANSYS Fluent 2020 R1...
