Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop in Wavy-Walled Tubes: A Parameter-BASED CFD Study

Co-relations of friction factor and Nusselt number for plain tubes have been widely developed, but less analysis has been done for tubes with wavy surfaces. This paper uses the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool for the analysis of heat transfer and pressure drop in wavy-walled tubes, which can...
