The influence of helical screw tape coupled with rib turbulators (HST-R) on thermohydraulic characteristics in a circular tube has been experimentally investigated. The experiments were performed under constant heat flux condition for Reynolds number between 6,000 and 20,000. The rib-pitch ratio (p/D) was varied from 1.0 to 3.0 while rib-height ratio (e/W) was varied from 0.5 to 1.5. The experimental results revealed that heat transfer and friction factor increase with increasing rib-height ratio (e/W) and decreasing rib-pitch ratio (p/D). For the range examined, the HST-Rs with moderate rib-pitch ratio (p/D = 2) and the largest rib-height ratio (e/W = 1.5) gave the maximum thermal performance factor while HST possessed thermal performance factor around average value of those of the tubes with HST-Rs. The developed empirical correlations for Nusselt number, friction factor and thermal performance factor gave the predictions within + 4.4%, + 13% and + 4.2%, respectively as compared to the experimental data.
