Research

Anjali Vyass research involves Performance Analysis of Solar Air Heater to enhance the Heat transfer rate using Artificial Roughness. Her Research work deals with an Experimentation on solar air heater to find out enhancement in efficiency due to artificial roughness on absorber plate. Perforated baffles have been used as artificial roughness which is attached underneath the absorber plate of the duct. Thermal performance analysis of solar air heater was carried out for ranging Reynolds number 3000 , 11000 and results were validated in ANSYS Fluent module. Performance evaluation of solar air heater with provision of baffles to the air passage area was the main focus of the work.

An attempt has been made to produce thermal performance analysis to determine fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of solar air heater. Artificial roughness is used in solar air heater absorber plate to break laminar boundary sub layer. It enhances rate of heat transfer from the absorber plate to the over flowing air stream. Heat transfer to the air flow in rectangular ducts with perforated baffles attached to one of the broad walls. The duct has width-to-height ratio of 7.77; the baffle pitch to height ratio is 29; the baffle height-to- duct height ratio is 0.495. It was proven beyond doubt that solar air heaters with the baffles can efficiently promote air turbulence, thereby increasing the heat transfer coefficient and efficiency.
