Abstract

In this experimental study,
air side heat transfer and flow characteristics of L-footed spiral fin-and-tube
heat exchanger have been analyzed. There were four rows of tubes in the air
flow direction and four tubes per row in the heat exchanger. The hot water was
flowed through the tubes while the ambient air was flowed cross flow over the
tubes. The results were presented as plots of friction factor f  and  Colburn
j factor against Reynolds number. The air-side heat transfer coefficient and
pressure drop were also presented against frontal air velocity. Additionally,
The correlations for j and f factors were also obtained from the experimental
data.
