Abstract

Twisted oval tube is also a finned tube in a sense, especially when used in crossflow, although the fins of the twisted oval tube are invisible. An experimental research on heat transfer and pressure drop performance of twisted oval tube bundle with staggered layout is conducted. The correlations of Nusselt number and pressure drop coefficient deduced from this paper are well compatible with experimental data, which could provide a theoretical reference of twisted oval tubes for industrial applications.
