Numerical Investigation on the Performance of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger With Different Porous Baffles Configurations
This work aims to evaluate the thermal and hydraulic performance (TPF) of shell and tube heat exchanger with structured metal foam baffles. The configurations of the metallic foam baffles contain baffles with 20% cut ratio, double cut ratio (2 × 10%), and helical tape form. Additionally, the impact of baffles inclina...
