Energy Efficiency Improvement in a Water Heater with a Run-Around Heat Exchanger System
A significant portion of the energy consumed by home appliances that uses hot water is used for heating cold supply water. Such home appliances generally use supply water at a temperature lower than the ambient temperature. Thus, the water is normally heated from below the ambient temperature to its designed maximum temperature by the appliance, often using natural gas or an electrical heater. ...
متن کاملInfluencing parameters on performance of a mantle heat exchanger for a solar water heater - a simulation study
Thermal performance of a solar water heater mainly depends on the thermal stratification. Thermal stratification in solar water tanks is essential for a better performance of energy storage systems where these tanks are integrated. In this research work, the performance of a solar water heater with a mantle heat exchanger is investigated experimentally. The heat exchanger is assessed for a rang...
متن کاملWater thickness effect on the fin efficiency and heat transfer for partially wet-surface heat exchanger
Heat and mass transfer, in this paper, is considered in one-row heat exchanger, that fins are hotter than air flow and water is added to fins. Related governing equations are derived by analyzing a two-dimension model in a unique cell of a heat exchange. These equations are numerically solved by finite difference method. Heat transfer and efficiency under partially wet surface are calculated by...
متن کاملDiagnosis of Heat Exchanger Scales in Cooling Water Systems
An experimental database is compiled in order to fingerprint the scales formed over the hot surfaces of heat exchangers, in cooling water systems or other systems with similar chemistry. To collect these data, a dynamic simulating pilot plant was designed with considerable application flexibility among which simultaneous flow of water with different velocity and heat fluxes to three simulat...
متن کاملExperimental Analysis of Solar Water Heater Using Pulsating Heat Pipe
Solar energy is used for solar water heater in domestic and industrial purpose. Pulsating heat pipe is a fast responding, flexible and high performance thermal conducting device. The CLPHP system described in this study relies on the natural forces of gravity and capillary action and does not require an external power source. The flat plate collector consisted of a 2 mm thick sheet of Aluminum ...
