AB - In order to study the influence of the louver angle on the heat transfer and  flow resistance characteristics of a parallel flow heat exchanger, this  paper establishes five calculation models including a uniform angle model  and four variable angle models for comparing and analyzing the temperature,  velocity, and pressure fields, and evaluates their comprehensive  performance. The results show that the suitable choice of the v louver angle  can lead to an optimal heat transfer effect and a best comprehensive  performance.
