Flow Investigation behind Delta Winglet Vortex Generators by Stereo PIV
Résumé
Enhanced turbulent mixing is essential to intensify convective heat transfer in various
industrial devices to improve performance and energy efficiency. Vortex generators
(VGs) are passive flow control devices designed to generate swirling flows and provide a
high level of heat transfer enhancement with moderate mechanical losses. With the
high efficiency of this passive technique for flow control the use of VGs has attracted
attention in several fields interested in the enhancement of rates of mass, momentum
flux and heat transfer in many man-made devices (e.g. heat exchangers).
