... (many tens) of microchannels and/or with microchannels of complex shape, designed for the purpose of enhancing heat transfer. For the same reason, even cross-flow DL-MCHSs, which are less popular but still have some advantages, can only be studied in the case of a limited number of microchannels (Ansari...

...Seyed Ali Atyabi; Ebrahim Afshari; Mohammad Yaghoub Abdollahzadeh Jamalabadi Purpose In this paper, a single module of cross-flow membrane humidifier is evaluated as a three-dimensional multiphase model. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effect of volume flow rate, dry temperature, dew...

... in cross-flow micro heat exchangers. Design/methodology/approach – The velocity fields in single microchannels are calculated by solving the parabolised form of the momentum equations and later mapped onto the three-dimensional grid, corresponding to an appropriate portion of the micro heat exchanger...

...Samir Laouedj; Juan P. Solano; Abdelylah Benazza Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe the flow structure and the time-resolved and time-mean heat transfer characteristics in the interaction between a synthetic jet and a cross flow, when an obstruction reduces the cross-section...
