A Review on Improving Thermal-Hydraulic Performance of Finand- Tube Heat Exchangers

Fin-and-tube heat exchangers are one of the most common type of heat exchangers that are normally used in sectors that require small size and light weight but high heat transfer capabilities. Compact fin-and-tube heat exchangers experiences high convective thermal resistance at the air-side due to t...
