Heat Tube Induction Heating Systems Stabilized Design

Using Numerical Methods to Design and Control Heating Induction Systems

Although induction heating systems exists since 1906 (Curtis, 1950) its design always has been an art, with a great emphasis in the designer’s experience. This state of things has not really changed much until the advent of computers and analysis software powerful enough. Now it is possible to use relatively common programs, even free software in some cases, to design and simulate the heating s...

Thermal Design Considerations and Performance Evaluation of Cryogenic Tube in Tube Heat Exchangers

Heat exchangers are the most important equipment in refrigeration processes. Design and modeling of heat exchangers operating at low temperatures are different from other regular heat exchangers. This study includes two sections. In the first section, design and modeling considerations needed for evaluating the real thermal behavior of heat exchangers at low temperatures were discussed. The...

Effectively Design Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchangers

heat exchangers (STHEs) is done by sophisticated computer software. However, a good understanding of the underlying principles of exchanger design is needed to use this software effectively. This article explains the basics of exchanger thermal design, covering such topics as: STHE components; classification of STHEs according to construction and according to service; data needed for thermal de...

Theoretical Study of Indirect Heating Temperature Swing Adsorption ‎in an Adsorbent Coated Finned Tube Heat Exchanger

In this study, the performance of an adsorbent coated finned tube exchanger for carbon capture was investigated numerically. The results showed that this structure has a great potential for being applied as a medium for CO2 capture by rapid indirect thermal swing adsorption. By using this structure, the recovery of 96%, and purity of 98% were achieved with a simple cycle consisting of two steps...
