Abstract
⺠Heat transfer of a chevron-type PHE under mixed convection was studied. ⺠Aiding and opposing buoyancy experiments performed for Re = 100-400. ⺠Heat transfer is improved under aiding mixed convection conditions. ⺠Aiding buoyancy forces cause higher pressure losses. ⺠Opposing buoyancy deteriorates the flow symmetry inside channels.
