Abstract:A vortex tube is a device that separates entering compressed fluid into hot and cold fluid streams simultaneously. This energy separation phenomenon inside the tube is a mystery and the mechanism that causes heat transfer needs attention. Since the invention of the vortex tube, the scientific community has taken efforts to search for energy separation mechanisms. Performance augmentation and the physics of energy separation was the objective of many experimental studies. The performance of the vortex tube vari… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
