Abstract: | Flow through a cylindrical flat chamber, a model of some particular heat exchanger, is investigated numerically using the CFD-ACE code. Turbulence is modelled using the classical k–ε model. A better understanding of the secondary flow is then obtained: the k–ε model shows a strong dependence of the secondary flow velocity field with Reynolds number as was pointed out with precedent experimental results. Variations of the number of vortexes composing the secondary flow, giving a symmetrical or asymmetrical aspect, will influence the fluid particle trajectories and time residence.
