Abstract

In this paper, finned type heat exchangers with different fin dimensions in the exhaust of a gasoline engine are modeled numerically for improving the exhaust energy recovery. RNG k-ε viscous model is used and the results are compared with available experimental data presented by Lee and Bae (Int J Therm Sci 47:468–478, 2008) where a good agreement is observed. Also, the effect of fin numbers, fin length and three water-based nanofluid coolants (TiO2, Fe2O3 and CuO) on the heat recovery efficiency are investigated in different engine loads. As a main outcome, results show that increasing the fin numbers and using TiO2-water as cold fluid are the most effective methods for heat recover. Furthermore, an optimization analysis is performed to find the best fins dimensions using response surface methodology.
