Abstracts : The need to increase the thermal performance of heat
exchangers, thereby affecting energy, material & cost savings have
led to development & use of many techniques termed as Heat
transfer Augmentation. Augmentation techniques increase
convective heat transfer by reducing the thermal resistance in a heat
exchanger. Twisted tapes-a type of passive heat transfer
augmentation techniques have shown significantly good results in
past studies. Different designs of twisted tapes used are-Reduced
width twisted tapes (RWTT), Baffled reduced width twisted tapes
(BRWTT1) & Baffled reduced width twisted tape with holes
(BRWTT2). The proposed work is aimed at finding the heat transfer
performance in a circular pipe by employing corrugated twisted
tapes& also results are to be compared with plain twisted tape. These
tapes will be tested for different configurations of twist ratios &
wave angles. It is to be verified whether corrugated nature of twisted
tape assists the heat transfer by turbulence enhancement or if it
increases the pressure drop. Also the use of „CFD‟ software is
proposed for analysis work & developing correlations.
