Ouadha, Auteur ; M. Baghdad, Auteur ; Y. Addad, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : pp. 2426–2437 Note générale : Refrigeration Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Vortex tube  Exergy analysis  RSM model Résumé : A numerical study has been conducted to investigate the effects of variable fluid properties on the prediction of a basic tube vortex design. Beforehand, a literature review is presented to highlight some of the recent advances in the enhancements of the device design and its efficiency. The three-dimensional computations with constant and variable properties revealed that the constant thermophysical assumption might not have a dramatic effect if the aim is to predict global values only, but extra caution should be taken for an in-depth flow assessment. The exergy analysis conducted suggests that the highest exergy efficiency, for the current device design, ranges from 38% to 46% depending on the inlet pressure value. Based on the current numerical analysis; rather large exergy losses are due to irreversibility occurring at either; the lowest or the highest cold mass fraction boundary conditions.
