초록

The optimal geometric configuration of a passive heat exchanger in a vertical cylinder is presented herein. The heat exchanger is positioned vertically at the center of the cylinder. Several parameters and flow conditions are investigated to determine the optimized geometric parameters. The finite volume numerical technique is used to obtain computational results. The results show that the number of fins and the cylinder height impose a more significant effect as the inlet velocity increases, whereas the fin height shows similar effects for all inlet velocities tested (1 to 5 m/s). The best heat flux performance is observed at a fin height of 10 mm and a fin count of 58 at a high inlet velocity. A cylinder length of 200 mm is selected considering geometry restrictions.
