Computational fluid dynamics investigation of heat transfer, pressure loss, and exergy efficiency in serpentine solar air heaters with variable turn numbers

Solar air heaters have been widely used for space and industrial process heating. However, serpentine Solar Air Heaters (SAHs) exhibit limited thermohydraulic efficiency due to high pressure losses caused by the bends. To address this, the present study numerically investigated different configurations of serpentine...
