In this paper, an extensive flow visualization study was conducted to design and optimize a heat transfer surface suitable for compact heat exchangers operating in a low Reynolds number regime. The design of the new surface was achieved by carefully identifying possible enhancement mechanisms and ch

## Abstract A physical model has been developed to analyze the enhanced heat transfer process of the latent functionally thermal fluid with microencapsulated phaseβchange material. The problem is solved by the combination of the finite difference method and the moving heat source method. The calcul
Though widely used, questions remain as to the mechanisms by which micro-fin or microgrooved tubes enhance heat transfer performance. In this work, new experimental liquid film thickness profiles in adiabatic, air-water flow through clear tubes with 20 microgrooves at three different helix angles ar
