Abstract
Abstract The dynamics of water‐liquid flow through aluminum circular pipes are examined to investigate the effects of half‐cycle length in converging wavy ducts with diverging outlets. This study provides insights into flow control, energy efficiency, enhanced heat transfer, and turbulence management, all of which have significant industrial applications. The SpaceClaim‐generated duct designs have 40 mm major inlet diameters and 10 mm minor inlets on either side, with an output diverging to 10 mm. The Shear Stress Transport (SST) k‐ model in ANSYS Fluent 2024R2 is used for better management of pressure gradients and precise prediction of boundary layer behavior. Meshing and simulation followed a strict…
