TE-7 Review of Intube Static Mixers for Heat Transfer Applications
April 23, 2024
Inline static mixers promote the radial spreading of momentum and heat and are thus useful in enhancing heat transfer, especially in viscous laminar flows. After a brief review of the physics of plain tube laminar flow heat transfer, this report includes classifications of these mixers based on their construction and presents some...

TE-6 Correlations for Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop of Tube Inserts in Single-phase Turbulent Swirl Flow
January 16, 2017
This report describes the mechanism behind turbulent swirl flow augmentation inside a tube, as well as the development of heat transfer and pressure drop correlations for Reynolds numbers between 3000 and 500000. The correlations have application independent of the specific swirl flow insert type. This report also identifies the lower bound...
