| dc.description.abstract | Heat exchanger is equipment used to transfer heat from one fluid to another. It has
extensive domestic and industrial applications. Extensive technical literature is available
on heat exchanger design, operation and maintenance, but it is widely scattered
throughout the industrial bulletins, industrial design codes and standard, technical
journals, etc. The purpose of this book chapter is to consolidate into basic background
and concepts design of heat exchangers, operation, cleaning and green technology
maintenance on heat exchanger closely related to the industrial practices. A shell and
tube heat exchanger model is presented in this paper. By this experiment, it is possible to
know the features of heat exchanger as well as different kind of materials which are most
commonly used as tube materials. In this thesis, a comparison between overall heat
transfer coefficient for copper and aluminum tube heat exchanger has been presented.
The model structure, its range of validity and accuracy are described in detail. | en_US |
