Numerical studies on heat transfer and friction factor characteristics of a tube fitted with helical screw-tape without core-rod inserts (2013, background): “[10] experimentally studied the axial heat transfer distribution and friction factor for the tubes fitted with broken twisted tapes of different twisted ratios, and found that local Nusselt number and mean friction factor increased with the decrease of twisted ratio.”
3-D Numerical Simulation of Heat Transfer and Turbulent Flow in a Receiver Tube of Solar Parabolic Trough Concentrator with Louvered Twisted-tape Inserts (2014, background): “They [16] also measured heat transfer of the tube with a broken twisted-tape insert.”
Numerical studies on heat transfer and flow characteristics for laminar flow in a tube with multiple regularly spaced twisted tapes (2012, background): “[13] experimentally studied the axial heat transfer distribution and friction factor for the tubes fitted with broken twisted tapes of different twisted ratios, and found that local Nusselt number and mean friction factor increased with the decrease of twisted ratio.”
An overview of heat transfer enhancement methods and new perspectives: Focus on active methods using electroactive materials (2013, background): “broken insert [42], peripherally cut [43], serrated [44], with oblique teeth [45], perforated [46] and many other twisted tape shapes (delta-winglet, trapezoidal-cut, square-cut), with wire-nail, with alternate-axes and variously shaped wings (triangle, rectangle, trapeze).”
Thermohydraulics of turbulent flow through a round tube by a peripherally-cut twisted tape with an alternate axis (2010, background): “[15] also invented broken or spiky twisted tape for use in laminar and turbulent regimes.”
Thermal characteristics in a heat exchanger tube fitted with dual twisted tape elements in tandem (2010, methodology): “In general, the performance factors of twisted tapes in this group were higher than those of the former group, for instance the broken and serrated twisted tapes [10,11] provided the performance factors as high as 1.”
