This study introduces a novel mechanism for the vibrator's movement, utilizing the fundamentals of the EMV method. A longitudinal oscillator can exhibit a vibrational mechanism characterized by stationary or transverse waves. This research introduces a novel mechanism for generating transverse waves within a tube. The study examined parameters including oscillation frequencies ranging from 20 to 50 Hz and the width of the vibrating strip, which varied between 3 and 6 mm. This innovative mechanism can potentially enhance heat transfer by 278.5% and achieve a thermal efficiency factor (TEF) of 2.86 through the generation of transverse waves within the tube, utilizing a 6 mm wide vibrating strip at a frequency of 20 Hz. The findings indicated that elevating the vibration frequency of the vibrating strip, which generates faster transvers waves, to 50 Hz can lead to a remarkable enhancement in heat transfer, achieving an increase of 367% in comparison to a smooth tube. Meanwhile, the pressure drop along the tube experienced a rise of only 240%. In the concluding phase of the experiment, various longitudinal perforations were introduced on the strip turbulator, featuring circular, square, triangular, and oval geometries, all maintaining the same surface area to minimize pressure drop. The findings indicated that the introduction of these perforations could significantly decrease the pressure drop by as much as 120%, with only a slight decrease in the Nusselt number. Ultimately, the study identified the optimal TEF as a strip with a width of 6 mm, vibrating at a frequency of 50 Hz, and utilizing an oval perforation design, achieving a TEF of 3.49.
