“…In addition, the flow rate of liquid and gas fluids also affects the Reynolds number and Nusselt number. The faster the fluid flow causes the Reynolds number and Nusselt number to increase [18].…”

In this case, the recovery of excess heat in the steel-making process becomes challenging to save energy effectively and efficiently. One way to help the process of heat recovery in the steel-making process is with a heat exchanger. This heat exchanger maximizes the production process work. However, in the application, the heat exchanger developed to date can still work optimally. Based on the literature study that has been done previously for the design of the heat exchanger, in this study, the addition of four longitudinal fins variations with the cross-flow flow was carried out. This research compares the heat exchanger performance finned pipes with pipes without fins design, where liquid and airflow rates are varied. This study evaluated whether the longitudinal fins configuration and the fluid flow rate affect the cross-flow heat exchanger performance. The results show that fins addition on the copper pipes increases the value of Nusselt number 2.56% in liquid fluid and 16.57% in air fluid and increases the NTU value of its effectiveness by 24.77%.
