CFD Analysis of Novel Micro-Channel Heat Exchanger for Natural Gas Cooling Process

The Heat transfer in the automotive industry is enormously grown from the past decade there are so many techniques that can be used to coolIn current situation the world driven by a automotive sector sooner or later the consumption of fuel will be a par greater task than any other systems sooner or later it will come to an extinct where the availability of fuel can be not possible we are literally seeing at an extinct of petroleum industry at this situation the look or search for the other fuel sources is on demand such fuel found is called the natural gas a natural subsidiary found on the earth which can replace petroleum products. The concept of using micro channel heat exchanger is highly compact solution for any low scale cooling methods in this project the micro channel heat exchanger with noval fins that has tapered chamfer and filleted designs can be used to investigate the heat transfer in the micro channel heat exchanger the fluids used in the natural gas cooling is exhaust gas , R134a and natural gas. The commercial simulation package is used to simulate the model designed with computational fluid dynamics
