Experimental study of a solar water heater fitted with spacer at the leading edge of Left-Right screw tapes

Experimentation is performed on the thermosyphon SWH with a full-length twisted tape, twist fitted with rod and spacer at the leading verge with 150, 300, and 450 mm length and for the small twist at the ratio of 3. The maximum heat loss by the rod and spacer for a length of 450 mm is 24% and 33%. S...
