Heat Transfer Augmentation Dealing With Aerodynamic Device (Flag Vortex Generator)
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Heat Power Engineering
Abstract
The use of flexible plates or ?flags? as vortex generators inside a channel was successfully demonstrated as an alternative heat transfer augmentation technique. This paper aims to present a brief review of flag vortex generators for thermal augmentation. Although flag dynamics is widely reported, the review reveals that this heat transfer technique is not widely explored, specifically on the heat transfer performance of flags. Extensive and intensive experimental results are lacking to validate numerical and theoretical predictions. This paper further provides methods of Heat Transfer augmentation, with their classification. Non-exhaustive list of existing gaps, challenges, and potential research areas in using flags as vortex generators for thermal enhancement, which aims to guide future research directions in this thermal-fluid-structure problem. There is a need to conduct further investigations on this technique to fully establish its thermal characteristics.
