Abstract: | The study examined heat transfer of two dilute viscoelastic solutions in helical exchangers of circular cross-section. Ten helical coil heat exchangers with diameter ratios ranging from 4 to 50 were constructed. Results showed doubling the concentrations of polymer increased heat transfer performance by 12 %. The results were expressed in forms of some existing equations and were found to be in fair agreement to previous results. |
