Heat Exchangers
Used to transfer energy from one fluid to another
U = overall heat transfer coefficient, W/m2K
Tmax Tmax
One fluid, the hot fluid, is cooled while the other, the cold fluid, is heated May have phase change: temperature of one or both fluids is constant Simplest is double pipe heat exchanger
Parallel flow and counter flow
Shell-and-Tube Exchanger
Counter flow exchanger with larger surface area; baffles promote mixing
Figure 11-3 from engel, Heat and Mass Transfer

f-Chart Method
Tube flow has one complete change of direction giving two tube passes

Effectiveness-NTU Method
Analysis approach for heat exchangers when not all temperatures are known
Based on ratio of actual heat transfer to maximum possible heat transfer Maximum possible temperature difference for one fluid, Tmax is Th,in Tc,in Subscripts c and h for cold and hot Only one fluid, the one with the smaller value & of mcp, can have Tmax & & Define Cc = (mcp)c and Ch = (m cp)h

C1T1 = C2T2 or T2 = C1T1/C2 If T1 = Tmax and C1/C2 > 1, T2 > Tmax CminTmax is maximum heat transfer without impossible T < Tc,in or T > Th,in
