CFD ANALYSIS OF TRIANGULAR, SQAURE AND CIRCULAR SHAPED HELICAL COIL HEAT EXCHANGER BY USING TITANIUM OXIDE NANOFLUID

Helical coils are eminent coiled tubes which have been used in diversity of solicitations e.g. heat recovery, air-conditioning and preservation schemes, chemical reactors and dairy practices. Helical coil heat exchanger is the recent improvement of heat exchangers, to accomplish the industrial demand. A Helical coil are necessary for various heat exchangers, nuclear reactors and in chemical engineering, for of large quantity of heat is conveying in a slight space with high heat transmission rates and slight habitation time distributions even it suffers through a disadvantage of larger pressure drop. For this, my proposed work on CFD to analyze the helical coil by using ANSYS 18.2. Generation of 3D CAD model of copper helical tube of different shapes keeping PCD 60 mm, pitch 25 and length of 500 mm by using SOLIDWORKS and exporting to the IGES format and then import in ANSYS fluent 18.2.
