| Title of the article | The definition of the equivalent diameter of the screw channels type «confuser-diffuser» |
| Abstract. | Heat transfer equipment is widely applied in systems of industrial heat power engineering and industrial technologies in various industries. Currently, the creation of intensified heat transfer equipment is a very actual problem. One of the ways of solving this problem is the use of heat-exchange elements, ensuring the twist of the flow of fluid, and in particular, the screw pipe type «confuser-diffuser». As you know, these channels showed a high effectiveness as modulators of convective heat transfer in experimental studies. Correct calculation of heat exchangers is a fundamental task for the engineer. The results of experiments to determine the hydraulic resistance and the amount transferred through the heat exchange surface of heat, as is known, the generalized criterion equations, which as a typical size used is equivalent diameter. The article is devoted to the method of calculating the equivalent diameter of the screw pipe of type «confuser-diffuser». In this paper we have obtained expressions for the description of the boundaries of the cross section of the channel. The formulas to calculate the wetted perimeter, cross-sectional area and equivalent diameter is interesting from a practical point of view. The results of this work can be used in the design and calculation of a new intensified heat transfer equipment. |
