Multiphase fluid behaviour and thermal characteristics in flow through heated curved ducts

Fluid flow and thermal characteristics in curved ducts are influenced by the secondary flow effects arising from duct curvature and are uniquely different to those in straight ducts. Such flows stimulate fluid mixing to promote wall heat transfer even in laminar flow and exhibit hydrodynamic instabi...
