Irrigated packings for air handling in systems of wheeled and tracked vehicles

Abstract

Designs of flat-slotted irrigated packings of regular structure made of cogged plates of cellular plastic with different air flow regimes in their channels are considered. It is shown that in case of intensification of heat and mass transfer by means of artificial turbulization of air flow in channels the significant reduction is provided in size of packing after reaching of required efficiency of air temperature reduction and acceptable aerodynamic resistance.
