  Design and Analysis of Micro Channel Heat Exchanger with Different Geometry Configuration
  Author(s): Balamurugan S*
  
  In current scenario the surge in fossil fuels prices and demands for cleaner energy sources leads to focus on saving of existing energy usages. Among them heat exchangers are becoming a more viable technology for heat transfer applications. Currently, circular shape channels in heat exchangers dominate commercially than other shape of channels like square, rectangular, trapezoidal etc. However, trapezoidal and rectangular shape channel has some advantage over the circular shape channel. In this project the alteration of circular shape to trapezoidal and rectangular micro channels may increase the overall heat transfer efficiency compare to existing methods. These results are proved in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and the designing of micro channels are done in Solid Works package. .. View more»
