dc.description.abstractThe necessity of increased heat transfer surface area has resulted in the development of compact heat exchangers, which are widely used in the aerospace and automobile industries. Hence perforations are made on triangular plain fins to study the effects on the heat transfer coefficient. A numerical model has been developed for the perforated fin of a triangular plate fin heat exchanger. Perforated fin performance has been analyzed with the help of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) by changing the various parameters of the fin. The Colburn j factor and the Fanning friction factor are calculated for different Reynolds numbers. The values of the Colburn j factor and the Fanning friction factor are validated for known geometric fins with available data in the literature and extended to triangular perforated fins. The correlations have been developed between Reynolds number, Colburn j factor, and Fanning friction factor by taking into account fin height, fin thickness, and fin spacing. The present numerical analysis is carried out for air media.en_US
