Abstract

Heat pipe heat exchanger is one of the widely used equipment in the industrial field with effective heat transfer. Based on the advantages of the numerical simulation software FLUENT, the design and numerical simulation are carried out. Six cases of different ambient temperature have been studied in this paper include summer and winter. Heat recovery rates are not the same in different seasons. For the larger temperature difference between inside and outside, the rate of heat recovery can reach 56.14% in winter.
