Thermal-hydraulic performance of high-angle twisted tapes with MWCNT-Fe3O4 hybrid nanofluids under turbulent flow
This study evaluates the thermal-hydraulic performance of twisted-tape inserts in tubes using hybrid nanofluids. Researchers found that specific configurations significantly improve heat transfer efficiency, though they come with increased pressure-drop penalties.
Why it matters
Optimizing heat transfer efficiency is critical for improving the energy efficiency of industrial cooling and heating systems.
