The present paper reports a numerical investigation of spatial optimization of heat-exchanger by acting on its positioning in the vehicle’s cooling module. This analysis also elucidates how to act on the different parameters influencing heat-exchanger performance in order to optimize their...

In the process industry, vortex generators are being increasingly incorporated in modern multifunctional heat exchangers/reactors to enhance heat and mass transfer and thus increase energy efficiency. Longitudinal and transverse pressure-driven vortices and shear-instability-driven flow...
