TITLE : FLOW IN AN INTERNALLY-FINNED PIPE (LIBRARY CASE 124)

BY : CHAM Consultancy Team

DETAILS :

  • The flow considered is flow along a pipe which has 24 radial fins, with the tube walls and fins at constant temperature, 5 K lower than that of the inlet fluid.

  • The pipe is modelled as a 1/48th section, with symmetry planes. The flow is laminar.

    Pictures are as follows:

    1. Geometry of the problem
    2. Temperature contours
    3. Pressure contours
    4. Velocity vectors
