NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECT OF WINGLET BAND TYPE TURBULATORS ON HEAT TRANSFER AND FRICTION FACTOR

Abstract

In this study, the effects of band type turbulator with double-side winglet inside a pipe on heat transfer and friction factor were investigated numerically with the help of Ansys-Fluent program. The turbulator was designed with two different winglet distances (P=10 mm and 20 mm) and three different winglet angles (λ = 30°, 45°, 60°). In the numerical analyzes performed by assuming the pipe surface temperature as constant, aluminum as the turbulator material and water as the fluid were used. Realizable k-ε turbulence model was chosen in the analyzes. As a result of the analyzes performed between the Reynolds number of 8000-30000, it was seen that the winglet pitch distance (P) and the winglet angle (λ) of the turbulator were effective on both the heat transfer and the friction factor. By using a turbulator in the pipe, the Nusselt number was increased up to 67.09% compared to the empty pipe.
