ABSTRACT

Based on the use of multiblock computational technologies, a numerical investigation of convective heat transfer in ordered in-line tube banks is carried out. An analysis of the effect of viscosity on the vortical structure and heat transfer from a far-off cylinder inside the bank is given. An approach to simulation of vortical heat transfer within the framework of the concept is justified with the use of periodic boundary conditions, and the limits of its applicability are determined.
