numerical investigation of heat transfer and pressure drop in a plate heat exchanger with chevron plates
in the present study, turbulent flow in channels of a plate heat exchanger with corrugated chevron plates has been simulated numerically using the commercial cfd package, fluent. unstructured mesh is used for discretizing the computational domain and simple algorithm is utilized to solve the pressure and velocity equations. there is a wide selection of different plate heat exchangers within the...
متن کاملA numerical investigation of γ-Al2O3-water nanofluids heat transfer and pressure drop in a shell and tube heat exchanger
The effect of γ-Al2O3 nanoparticles on heat transfer rate, baffle spacing and pressure drop in the shell side of small shell and tube heat exchangers was investigated numerically under turbulent regime. γ-Al2O3-water nanofluids and pure water were used in the shell side and the tube side of heat exchangers, respectively. Since the properties of γ-Al2O3-water nanofluids were variable, they were ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Heat Transfer Enhancement in Spiral Plate Heat Exchanger
In the present study, the heat transfer coefficients of benzene in a spiral plate heat exchanger are investigated. The test section consists of a Plate of width 0.3150 m, thickness 0.001 m and Mean hydraulic diameter of 0.01 m. The mass flow rate of water (Hot fluid) is varying from 0.5 kg sec to 0.8 kg sec and the mass flow rate of benzene (cold fluid) varies from 0.4 kg sec to 0.7 kg sec. Exp...
متن کاملHeat Transfer and Pressure Drop During HC-600a (Isobutane) Condensation Inside a Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger
This paper presents the heat transfer coefficients and the pressure drop measured during HC-600a (Isobutane) condensation inside a brazed plate heat exchanger: the effects of saturation temperature, refrigerant mass flux and vapour super-heating are investigated. The heat transfer coefficients show weak sensitivity to saturation temperature and great sensitivity to refrigerant mass flux. At low...
متن کاملA-Type Heat Exchanger Simulation Using 2-D CFD for Airside Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop
A-Type heat exchangers are used to meet required heat load with minimum duct dimensions in air-conditioning applications. This greatly reduces the air-conditioning system footprint in residential and commercial applications. The angle and tube spacing of the A-type heat exchangers should be optimized for minimum duct size and maximum heat load. However, existing air side heat transfer and press...
