Heat Transfer to Separation Flow in Heat Exchangers

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...

Air-side Particulate Fouling of Microchannel Heat Exchangers: Experimental Comparison of Air-Side Pressure Drop and Heat Transfer with Plate-Fin Heat Exchanger

In this study, the air-side pressure drop and heat transfer performance of plate-fin and microchannel coils were tested under clean and fouled conditions. The heat exchangers were tested with two different types of dust, ASHRAE dust and Arizona Road Test Dust. The ASHRAE dust was found to have a very significant impact on the pressure drop of the microchannel heat exchanger, increasing the air-...

Upper Heat S Ink Heat Pump Lower Heat Sink

The thermal diffusion factors observed for these systems vary considerably with concentration, and frequently show a change in sign at some concentration. New data on ethanol-toluene mixtures show that the sign and magnitude of the separation of the components in a thermal gradient are also strongly dependent on the mean temperature of the system. These observations, together with earlier ones ...

Experimental Study of Heat Transfer Rate in a Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger with Air Bubble Injection (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Shell and tube heat exchangers are widely being used in many of industrial and power engineering applications. Different techniques have been employed in order to enhance the performance of the heat exchanger. Air bubble injection is one method to increase the turbulence of the flowing fluids which in turn enhance the heat transfer performance. Injecting air bubbles is one of the promising tech...
