Numerical Study of Flow Deflection and Horseshoe Vortices in a Louvered Fin Round Tube Heat Exchanger

In louvered fin heat exchangers, the flow deflection influences the heat transfer rate and pressure drop and thus the heat exchanger’s performance. To date, studies of the flow deflection are two-dimensional, which is an acceptable approximation for flat tube heat exchangers (typical for automotive...
