Optimization study and heat transfer comparison of staggered circular and elliptic tubes in forced convection

In this study, a two-dimensional (2-D) heat transfer analysis was performed in circular and elliptic tube heat exchangers. The finite element method was used to discretize the fluid flow and heat transfer governing equations and a 2-D isoparametric, four-noded, linear element was implemented for the...
