Heat Transfer Efficiency in Coplanar Channels in Recuperative Heat Exchangers

Analytical Entropy Analysis of Recuperative Heat Exchangers

The analytical solutions for the temperature variation of two streams in parallel flow, counter flow and cross-flow heat exchangers and related entropy generation due to heat exchange between the streams are presented. The analysis of limiting cases for the relative entropy generation is performed, and corresponding analytical expressions are given. The obtained results may be included in a mor...

Application of ZnO/TiO2 Nanocomposite for the Improvement of Heat Transfer Coefficient in Tube Heat Exchangers

The potential of nanofluids for the improvement of heat transfer coefficient in various heat exchangeequipment has been considered and studied as a major application during recent decades. In this research,heat transfer coefficient of ZnO, TiO2 and ZnO/TiO2 nanofluids in a shell and tube heat exchanger has beenstudied experimentally. ZnO nanoparticle was synthesized through pre...
