Abstract

Three electrically heated triangular ducts were used to simulate the thermal behaviours of turbulent air-flows through triangular passages in compact heat-exchangers (Fig. 1). Three sharp-cornered isosceles-triangular duralumin ducts were fabricated, each of the same length of 2.4 m and hydraulic diameter of 0.44 m, but with three different apex-angles, namely 40°, 60° and 90°. The experimental investigations were performed over a wide range of Reynolds number (Re), namely 5000
