Additional information

This paper is the first study to document a systematic experimental evaluation of the impact of twin-skin exhaust pipe geometries on heat transfer within automotive exhaust systems. The work was funded by an international automotive consultancy, Mahle Powertrain, and a fully documented, configurable heat transfer model, based on work presented in this paper, was delivered to the industrial sponsor. It is currently being used as an analytical tool within the company (James Taylor, james.taylor@gb.mahle.com). This work led to the inclusion of heat transfer modelling in a £800k Ford/Jaguar/Cummins/Bath Turbocharging project from the EPSRC Knowledge Transfer Account (EP/H500103/1).
