Correlations for Nusselt Number in A Staggered Cross-Flow Tube-Type Heat Exchanger

ABSTRACT

Empirical correlations for Nusselt number (Nu) in a staggered multi-row multi-column cross-flow, tube-type heat exchanger is presented in this paper. In the experiment, air at ambient banks of cylindrical rods arranged in staggered configuration of 5 rows by four columns. A test element consisting of a tube of pure copper with length internal and external diameters of 0.125, 0.0115 and 0.0125 m was heated to a maximum temperature of about 90Oc and inserted into the air stream in the working section. Rate of cooling was measured by thermocouple embedded at the center, via a digital multimeter which was connected to a computer for monitoring temperature data.
