Abstract

CFD analysis of steady fully developed laminar flow inside twisted duct of square cross section flow area is studied for Re range of 100 - 2000. A commercially available software is used for the analysis. Twist ratio used are 2.5, 5, 10 and 20.Maximum average f.Re values were observed for a twist ratio of 2.5 and Re of 2000. It is observed that the average f.Re values are not constant rather are function of Re and twist ratio. Average f.Re values are correlated with swirl parameter. Local distribution of f.Re across a cross-section is further analysed. Comparison of average f.Re values of twisted square duct with straight square duct is also done.
