The implementation of the proposed arrangement of tubular elements in the form of a combined heat-transfer surface of tube banks of different outer diameters d1 = 11 mm and d2 = 6 mm with a triangular one with d1 = 11 mm and d2 = 8 mm with a linear arrangement and experimental thermal and aerodynamic characteristics obtained on their basis point to the expediency of practical application of the proposed approach to heat transfer enhancement and increase of the energy efficiency of tubular heat exchanging apparatus and facilities. Various variants of the design of a tubular surface in a crossflow are presented. %8 2006-03-28
