Friction Loss and Heat Transfer Coefficient in Finned Tube Heat Exchangers for Reheating Massecuites
نویسنده
چکیده
Equations developed for packed columns may be used to predict the overall heat transfer coefficient and friction loss in massecuite reheaters. The results seem to indicate that exchangers with the tubes staggered give higher heat transfer rates than those with the tubes in line.

Full Analysis of Low Finned Tube Heat Exchangers
In this paper, first the governing parameters characterizing low-finned tubes are reviewed. Second, the more important of the available performance correlations are compared with the available experimental data. The most reliable one can be employed to develop a pressure drop relationship, which has already been used in an algorithm for exchanger sizing. Also a means for the identification of a...

In this study, the thermal characteristics of turbulent nanofluid flow in a helical tube in the tube heat exchanger (HTTHE) were assessed numerically through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. The findings of both the turbulent models: realizable k-epsion (k-ε) and re-normalisation group (RNG) k-epsilon were compared. The temperature distribution contours show that realizable and RN...

متن کاملMinimization of Entransy Dissipations of a Finned Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
Improving heat transfer and performance in a radial, finned, shell and tube heat exchanger is studied in this study. According to the second law of thermodynamics, the most irreversibilities of convective heat transfer processes are due to fluid friction and heat transfer via finite temperature difference. Entransy dissipations are due to the irreversibilities of convective heat transfer. There...
