The current study experimentally investigates the heat transfer augmentation on the novel axial corrugated heat exchanger tube in which the spring tape is introduced. Air (Pr = 0.707) is used as a working fluid. In order to augment the thermohydraulic performance, a corrugated tube with inserts is offered. The experimental study is further extended by varying the important parameters like spring ratio (y = 1.5, 2.0, 2.5) and Reynolds number (Re = 10 000–52 000). The angular pitch between the two neighboring corrugations and the angle of the corrugation is kept constant through the experiments at β = 1200 and α = 600 respectively, while two different corrugations heights (h) are analyzed. While increasing the corrugation height and decreasing the spring ratio, the impact of the swirling effect improves the thermal performance of the system. The maximum thermal performance is obtained when the corrugation height is h = 0.2 and spring ratio y = 1.5. Eventually, correlations for predicting friction factor (f) and Nusselt number (Nu) are developed.

Recycled Materials

In this article, a student describes his development and implementation of a 'candle recycler'; that is, a device for saving melted wax and, at the same time, generating reusable candles. His invention uses recycled materials and is intended for use by people who may not have access to electric lights and/or may not have sufficient funds to purchase candles. This invention is meant as a research-informed and negotiated action to overcome harms the student perceived in relationships among fields of science & technology and societies & environments (STSE).
