INTRODUCTION 11 Overview Lleat exchangers are designed to optimize the surface area of the wall between Iwo fluids to maximize the offciency, while iininnizing resistance to fluid flow through the exchangers within constrain of material cost. The performance of heat exchanging surfaces could be enhanced by the addition of corrugalions or [ins in heal exchanger, which increase surface arca aud may chamnel fluid flow or induce turbulence. ‘I'he need for designing effective and more compact heat transfer systems is a major task for engineers and researchers.
There are three main techniques Whal help to improve the heat transfer rate: active, passive and the compound technique that combine both active and passive technique [1]. ‘As the active technique, there several researchers using pulsating flow for boosting convective heat transfer. Elsafei et al [2] were performed an experiment of pulsaling lbulence flow in smoolhi pipe 10000 Reynoks <40000 and 6. It indicated that the maximum increase and decrease in thermal performance factor is 9% and 12% respectively depending on the values of both Reynolds number ard frequency.
Habib et at, 2002 [3] investigated the convective heat transfer enhancement of a tube with uniform heat flax in laminar pulsating flows al.5 Hz, Re-780-1987) and observed thal. an enhancement in heat transfer cocfficient of up te 30% is obtained at pulsation frequency range of 1-4,] Lz and an enhancement up to 9% obtained at pulsation frequency range of 18-22 Hz. While a reduction of up to 40% in the heat transfer coefficient is obtained at a pulsation frequency range of 4.1-18 Hz and a reduction of up to 20% at a frequency of more than 22 Llz, In the passive technique, many researchers carried the experimental, numerical study on corrugated channels as geometrical changes to increase the heat transfer and thermal porformance vale. Ali and Ramadhyani [4] exporimentally investigated the heat transfer in a corrugated chamnel relative to a parallel plate channel with water as a working Muid.
They found that the best heat, enhancement. ratio occws when the Reynolds numbers in the range of 1750-2000.
