Performance Characteristics of Fin-Tube Heat Exchanger having Large Diameter Oval Tube for Dryer

Enhancement of Round Tube and Flat Tube-Louver Fin Heat Exchanger Performance Using Deluge Water Cooling

An experimental study has been conducted to evaluate the performance of a compact round-tube louver-fin condenser, each with frontal areas of 0.25 m in both dry and wet conditions. Deluge water cooling is achieved by incorporating a perforated bottom plate-type water distributor on top of the round tube heat exchanger. Water is used as a refrigerant, and enters the heat exchanger tubes at 35°C ...

Effect of baffle oientation on shell tube heat exchanger performance

In this paper, fluid flow and heat transfer in the laboratory (small size) shell tube heat exchanger are analysed by computational fluid dynamic software. In this type of shell tube heat exchanger baffles with different angles of rotation: 00 (horizontal segmental baffle), 150 (from horizontal), 300, 450, 600, 750, 900 (vertical segmental baffle) is used. Effect of baffle orientation on shell t...

Principle of Designing Fin-and-Tube Heat Exchanger With Smaller Tube for Air Condition

Fin-and-Tube Heat Exchanger Solid Core Advanced Simulation

This paper is devoted to the presentation of an advanced model for the heat conduction processes within a finned tube bundle, typically found in air-cooled evaporators and condensers. As a result of the computational effort needed to simulate the desired fin-and-tube local unsteadiness, some actions have been undertaken in order to obtain reasonable simulation time consumption. A specific cutti...

Twisted Tube Heat Exchanger Technology

Over 85% of all new heat exchanger applications in oil refining, chemical, petro-chemical, and power generation are accommodated through the use of conventional shell and tube type heat exchangers. The fundamental basis for this statistic is shell and tube technology is a cost effective, proven solution for a wide variety of heat transfer requirements. However, there are limitations associated ...
