OPTIMISATION OF RADIATOR INCLINATION ANGLE TO MAXIMIZE EFFECTIVENESS

Abstract

The heat exchanger, used in refrigeration unit, radiator, air conditioning unit used with IC engine automobiles is either square or rectangular in shape. In that heat transfer is take place by convection. The rate heat transfer depends on velocity of air surface area of tube. Generally it is placed vertically in flowing air so velocity of air will reduce hence heat transfer rate will affect adversely so we have decided to change inclination of radiator and to find effectiveness at different angle.
