The Effects of Vortex Generator Types on Heat Transfer and Flow Structure in a Rectangular Duct Flows
In this numerical study a detailed evaluation of the heat transfer characteristics and flow structure in a laminar and turbulent flow through a rectangular channel containing built-in of different type vortex generator has been a accomplished in a range of Reynolds number between 500 and 100,000.A m...
