چکیده
Introduction A thorough investigation of all equipment in a sugar factory covered by this title would result in a monumental publication. This relatively modest paper purports to draw attention to a few specific aspects of economy in juice heating. Considering the abundance of comprehensive articles on liquid-vapour and liquidliquid heat exchangers appearing in chemical engineering journals it is surprising that the superficial treatment of this subject as shown by articles in sugar journals indicates that little application is made of this valuable fund of knowledge in the sugar industry. Although the empirical approach may be adequate for routine specification and control, the application of general chemical engineering techniques developed

متن کاملInvestigation of shell and tube heat exchangers by using a design of experiment
Heat exchangers are one of the most important devices of mechanical systems in modernsociety. Most industrial processes involve the transfer of heat and more often they requirethe heat transfer process to be controlled. A heat exchanger is the heat exchanged betweentwo media, one being cold and the other being hot. There are different types of heatexchanger, but the type which is widely used in...
متن کاملDesign and optimization of solar-assisted conveyer-belt dryer for biomass
Biomass, as a renewable source of energy, can be used in many industries to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels. However, due to the significantly high and varied moisture content of biomass, its use has several drawbacks, such as low total efficiency and process instability. Drying biomass before combustion or gasification can eliminate these drawbacks. Besides these benefits, there ar...
