  • The constructal size of a heat exchanger 
    Bejan, A.; Lorente, S.; Martins, L.; Meyer, Josua P. (American Institute of Physics, 2017-08-09)
    The architecture of heat exchangers is a classical subject that has been studied extensively in the past. In this paper, we address the fundamental question of what the size of the heat exchanger should be, in addition to ...
  • Heat transfer direction dependence of heat transfer coefficients in annuli 
    Prinsloo, F.P.A. (Francois); Dirker, Jaco; Meyer, Josua P. (Springer, 2018-04)
    In this experimental study the heat transfer phenomena in concentric annuli in tube-in-tube heat exchangers at different annular Reynolds numbers, annular diameter ratios, and inlet fluid temperatures using water were ...
  • Inlet tube spacing and protrusion inlet effects on multiple circular tubes in the laminar, transitional and turbulent flow regimes 
    Meyer, Josua P.; Everts, Marilize; Hall, Andrew T.C.; Mulock-Houwer, Franscois A.; Joubert, Martin; Pallent, Leslie M.J.; Vause, Erin S. (Elsevier, 2018-03)
    The purpose of this study was to investigate inlet tube spacing and protrusion effects on multiple circular tubes in the laminar, transitional and turbulent flow regimes. An experimental set-up was built for this investigation ...
