Abstract
- In this paper, the heat transfer performance and flow resistance characteristics of the asymmetric arrangement of the rectangular winglet longitudinal vortex generators in the rectangular channels are numerically studied. Results show that at Re=500~2000, comparing with the symmetric arrangement of the longitudinal vortex generator, the Nusselt number of the asymmetric arrangement of the longitudinal vortex generator only decreased by 4% ~ 6%,while,the friction factor f decreases by 11% ~ 22%,the effect of flow drag reduction is very obvious. The asymmetric arrangements of the longitudinal vortex generators show the better overall thermal performance with the increase of j/f by 5% ~ 20%.
