The paper presents the results of modeling the dynamics of flow, friction and heat transfer in a descending gas-liquid flow in the pipe. The mathematical model is based on the use of the Eulerian description for both phases. The effect of a change in the degree of dispersion of the gas phase at the input, flow rate, initial liquid temperature and its friction and heat transfer rate in a two-phase flow. Addition of the gas phase causes an increase in heat transfer and friction on the wall, and these effects become more noticeable with increasing gas content and bubble diameter.

The present work presents measurements of velocity, temperature and heat transfer rates carried out on a segmented water-cooled cylindrical oil-fired flame tube typical of a 0.56 kg/s packaged fire-tube steam boiler. A prediction procedure, that solves the conservation equations of the various entities, was successfully used to produce computed velocities, temperatures and heat flux distributions. A two-equation turbulence model, a combustion model and a discrete ordinate radiation model were used to approximate the various characteristics of the flow. The combustion model solved the Eulerian equations of the gas phase, and the Lagrangian equations of the droplet motion, heating, evaporation and combustion.

The work presented is an effort to realize the changes occurring for convective coefficients of heat transfer in STHX fitted with inclined baffles. Effort has been undertaken using Fluent, a commercially available CFD code ona CAD model of small STHX with inclined baffles with cold liquid flowing into the tubes and hot liquid flowing in the shell. Four sets of CFD analysis have been carried out. The hot liquid flow rate through shell compartments varied from 0.2 kg/sec to 0.8 kg/sec in steps of 0.2 kg/sec, while keeping the cold liquid flow condition in tube at 0.4 kg/sec constant. Heat transfer rates, compartment temperatures, and overall heat transfer coefficients, for cold liquid and hot liquid, were studied. The results given by the software using CFD approach were appreciable and comparatively in agreement with the results available by the experimental work, which was undertaken for the same set of inlet pressure conditions, liquid flow rates, and inlet temperatures of liquid for both hot and cold liquids. The experimental output results were also used to validate the results given by the CFD software. The results from the CFD analysis were further used to conclude the effect of baffle inclination on heat duty. The process thus followed also helped realize the effects of baffle inclination on convective heat transfer coefficient of the liquid flow through the shell in an inclined baffle shell and tube heat exchanger. The temperature plots for both cold and hot liquid were also generated for understanding the compartmental temperature distributions inclusive of the inlet and outlet compartments. The heat duty for a heat exchanger has been found to increase with the increase in baffle inclinations from zero degree to 20 degrees. Likewise, the convective heat transfer coefficients have also been found to increase with the increase in baffle inclinations.
