  i'm trying to simulate a fluid flow inside the crescent shaped pipe fitted with rectangular perforated fins. i want to calculate the average heat transfer coefficient and friction factor inside the pipe.how can i do that?
  
  please help me out.

  First off you need to include a volume for the fluid. I'd suggest looking in the documentation for the Fluent tutorials but also review the videos that you'll find in the same place. You can get to that from "Help" in the various products.
