The heat transfer and flow characters for fully developed flow in a tube partially filled with porous media were studied numerically.The mechanisms of enhancing heat transfer were also analyzed using the principle of field synergy.The results showed that an equivalent thermal boundary layer could be formed in the fully developed tube flow by partially filling with porous media.Filling tube with porous materials of high thermal conductivity,high porosity and proper filling ratio could enhance heat transfer and restrict flow resistance increment.Heat transfer enhancement of this type was rooted at the core region of the pipe,unlike the traditional boundary enhancement.High PEC value up to 6 is obtained numerically,which showed the method is effective to design high-efficiency and low-resistance heat exchangers.
