Abstract
In this research a study effect of the length ratio (L/Da) and the height ratio (H/Da) for banks flat tube heat exchanger In-Line and staggered arrangement on force convection heat transfer and friction coefficient by (Fluent-CFD) numerical program.
The governing equations (mass, momentum and energy) are solving by using Finite Volume (Fluent-CFD) software for considering steady state, two dimensional, at constant heat flux with Reynold’s number (100≤Re≤8000).
The results show that increasing (H/Da), (L/Da) lead to decreasing friction coefficient and enhancement of (Nu) is at (H/Da=2) for all (L/Da) values In-line arrangement and at (H/Da =2, L/Da =5) for staggered arrangement.
