Abstract:This study presents the numerical investigation of the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics for three different high viscous fluids (Engine oil, Oil (SN-500) and Ethylene glycol) flowing inside horizontal rotating tubes. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methodology using ANSYS FLUENT 14.0 is used to perform the numerical analysis by solving the Navier-Stokes and energy equations through the viscous model at all cases of rotation Reynolds numbers and Reynolds numbers. The investigation is conducted … Show more
