| 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 purposeof this thesis paper 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. At the
same time a fin-and-tube heat exchanger model performance is presented in this paper. It uses
empirical heat transfer correlations identified in the literature. The model structure, its range of
validity and accuracy are | en_US |
