The paper presents the results of a study frost formation on surface heat exchanger fins when moist air flow is flown around. description experimental stand and procedure are given. effect efficiency transfer was estimated from time temperature dependences at various points fin surface. During experiments, thickness layer degree overlap intercostal spaces were monitored visually using an anemom...

This paper presents a comprehensive and exclusive thermodynamic analysis of counter flow heat exchanger under various operating and geometrical conditions. Analysis system (ANSYS) workbench 14.0 has been used for computational analysis and comparison with previous literature has been carried out in view of variable temperature and mass flow rate of hot and cold fluids. An analytical and statist...

Insight into thermal–hydraulic correlations of plate fin-and-tube heat exchangers is great interest in many industrial applications. Numerical simulations allow to efficiently and accurately obtain air-side transfer pressure drop for a broad variety exchanger configurations, provided the numerical method soundly validated against experimental measurements. In this contribution, we present thoro...
