Numerical Analysis of Corrugated Type Heat Exchanger with Variation in Corrugation Angle

Heat transfer is one of the main concerns in industries. Corrugated type heat exchangers are one of the best options available for heat transfer in less space. Many researchers have worked for corrugated plate heat exchanger with configuration corrugation angle of 30°. In the present work, corrugated plate heat exchanger with 30° corrugation angle has been modeled and results have been compared with that of the base paper. Further the corrugation angle has been changed to 45°. The boundary conditions have been kept same as that for 30°. Heat transfer rate, Nusselt number, Reynolds number, Friction factor, Paclet number and their variation have been found out for the new geometry. Graphical plots, variation in temperature and water velocity streamlines have also been found out.
