Abstract

In this paper, a new type of heat exchanger with discontinuous spiral baffles is designed, and its performance on heat transfer is analyzed by numerical simulation. The research results show that the airflow in shell-side flows by a similar helical way, “Flow dead zone” is not found. The high enthalpy airflow’s temperature decreases about 38% of the inlet air temperature by cooling down with a convective heat transfer coefficient of 344.4 W/(m2·K), while the decrease of the airflow pressure is 30%.
