As seen in the figure, the heat flux of Ei was greater than that of Di, and th difference between the maxima and minima of the heat flux was smaller when the angl was smaller. This also confirms the conclusion that the flow direction changes in the wav channel can enhance the heat transfer. 13 of 15 3.4. The Comprehensive Performance of the Wavy Channel It is well known that heat transfer in the wavy channel is more remarkable than tha 3.4.

The model was first validated by comparing numerical results with available experimental data; then, the effects of bending angle, air pressure, and hydraulic diameter of the PCHE heat exchanger on the heat transfer and flow resistance were analyzed, and the optimal angle was obtained by comprehensive performance criterion of the wavy channel. The main conclusions are as follows:
