摘要
The current research deals with an experimental and numerical inspection of the shell and helically coiled tube heat exchanger (SHCTHE) under various circular, elliptic, and square tube cross-sections. The research study strives to ameliorate the thermal-hydraulic performance with single nanofluids of Al2O3/H2O, MgO/H2O, and TiO2/H2O. Various factors were inspected to consider the heat exchanger performance under parameters, SHCTHE inclination angle, HCT diameter ratio, flow direction, the cross-section geometry shape, nanomaterials type, and nanomaterials concentration. The modeling engaging a numerical code tool of ANSYS-FLUENT 19 was accomplished with a 3D (RNG)/k-& epsilon; model. The mass flow rate and working fluid temperatures through the coil and shell sides were (0.05:0.2 kg/s at 80 degrees C and 0.05-0.2 kg/s at 10 degrees C, respectively. One of the most important results was that the SHCTHE with a circular tube crosssection gave the highest Nusselt number with an approximate percentage of 62.5%. The SHCTHE
