Abstract
This study presents findings on combined effects of Reynolds number and rotational effect for a two-pass channel with a 180-deg turn, numerically and experimentally. To have a better understanding of the flow behavior and to create a baseline for future studies, a smooth wall channel with the square cross section is used in this study. The Reynolds number varies between 6000 and 35,000. Furthermore, by changing the rotational speed, the maximum rotation number of 1.5 is achieved. For the numerical investigation, large eddy simulation (LES) is utilized. Results from the numerical study show a good agreement with the experimental data. From the results, it can be concluded that increasing both Reynolds number and rotational speed is in favor of the heat transfer coefficient enhancement, especially in the turn region.
