Abstract

We apply a recently proposed Computational thermal Fluid Dynamics (CtFD) strategy to the analysis of a meander-flow path (MF) fin-type heat exchanger (HX), to be used in the HTS current leads for the LTS coils of both the W7-X stellarator and the JT-60SA tokamak. A mock-up of the HX was tested at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology providing the database for the validation of the computational model. The hydraulic characterization of the mock-up is considered first, and then the heat transfer characteristic is analyzed.
