Abstract

Fluid flow design and heat transfer components utilising computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are relatively new because of cheaper and accurate method that becomes popular and reliable today. In this study, the helical coil tube heat exchanger is designed and modelled on solid modelling software. The modelled designs are analysed through ANSYS Fluent. The water is considered as working fluid, and copper as the solid material. The CFD analysis of parallel flow as well as counter flow is compared for the parameters like effective thermal conductivity, velocity and pressure. As an outcome, counter-flow heat exchanger provides effective outcome than the parallel-flow heat exchanger. The study explains about the numerical design and CFD analysis’ procedures of the helical coiled tube heat exchanger.
