A double pipe heat exchanger is significant device for many industrial applications. In this paper, an experimental study using both porous media and nanofluid to enhance heat transfer in a double pipe heat exchanger is performed. The test rig has been fabricated with inner copper pipe of 1.10 m length, 16 mm, and 14 mm outside and inside diameter, respectively. While, the outer PVC pipe is 1 m length, 31 mm, and 27 mm outside and inside diameter, respectively. The inner pipe has been filling with 3 mm diameters of steel balls porous media. The experimental tests were performed utilizing alumina nanofluid (Al2O3-water) with two volume concentrations 0.5% and 1%. The volume flow-rates are in the range of (2-5) Lpm and 10 Lpm through inner and outer pipe, respectively. It was conducted with a constant 28?C inlet temperature of cold fluid-flow inside the inner pipe and 50?C inlet temperature of hot fluid-flow inside the outer pipe. Results indicated that the heat transfer enhanced as nanofluid volume concentrations and volume flow-rates increase. It was observed that effectiveness increases as increase of flow-rate and nanofluid concentrations.

The special fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of supercritical CO2 in a horizontal double-pipe heat exchanger have been numerically investigated. The AKN k-epsilon model was selected to model the turbulent flow and heat transfer of supercritical fluid. In conjugate heat transfer process, there exists obvious heat transfer deterioration on the top wall for horizontal flow. The region of heat transfer deterioration expands with the increased GShell or TShell,0, and the influence of TShell,0 on conjugate heat transfer is greater than that of GShell. The high-temperature fluid will gather near the top region. The intensity and position of the secondary flow can represent the turbulence heat transfer. When the supercritical fluid temperature is much higher than Tpc, buoyancy force can be omitted, but it can not been neglected even under relatively high mass flux.
