    Exploring the Impacts of System Geometry on Heat Transfer Efficiency in Coil-and-Tube Heat Exchangers
    (Int Information & Engineering Technology Assoc, 2024) Saleem, Jaafar; Chahrour, Khaled M. N.; Habeeb, Laith Jaafer
    The purpose of this research is to investigate in depth the effect of system geometry on the performance of coil-and-tube heat exchangers. This work investigates the use of direct evaporative cooling (DEC) to improve the efficiency of air conditioning systems in extremely hot weather. DEC systems must be sized and constructed properly for the particular building and climate in which they are going to be installed. The ultimate goal is to reduce energy usage while producing affordable, green cooling options for regions with exceptionally hot temperatures. For simulation, we used computational fluid dynamics with ANSYS software. We purposefully varied the quantity of nozzles and the number of turns in the cooling tubes to see how they affected the effectiveness of the system. The temperature and velocity plot findings revealed a substantial difference, demonstrating that these engineering elements had an impact on the heat exchange process. According to the results, setups with 35 nozzles and 13 nozzle turns had a maximum coefficient of performance of 4.537 at an entry velocity of 2 m/s, showing that this configuration is ideal in the investigated conditions. The findings emphasize the need for strategically modifying some engineering parameters to increase heat exchanger performance and offer exciting prospects for the design and optimization of such systems. More research is needed to better understand these complicated interactions, including the investigation of different fluids, channel diameters, pressure conditions, and performance in the transient state.
