Simulation of thermal behavior of hybrid nanomaterial in a tube improved with turbulator

Simulation of swirl flow intensification with the use of new device inside a pipe was performed in the current investigation. To improve the feature of testing fluid, hybrid nanopowders were dispersed. Outputs were exhibited in terms of contours. Tangential velocity of nanomaterial augments with the increase in Re, and stronger convective mode is obtained with the rise in Re. Thinner thermal boundary layer close to the wall is an output of reducing pitch ratio and leads to greater Nu. Augmenting contact surface area with a decline in pitch ratio leads to stronger secondary flow.

Automated summary

Simulation of swirl flow intensification with a new device inside a pipe was conducted, showing that dispersing hybrid nanopowders can enhance testing fluid characteristics, increase tangential velocity of nanomaterial with rising Re, and thinning the thermal boundary layer near the wall by reducing pitch ratio leads to higher Nu.
