Review Heat Exchanger: Research Development of Self-rotating Inserts in Heat Exchanger Tubes
Heat exchangers are widely used in power engineering and industrial applications, many techniques such as coiled tube, surface tension devices, rough surfaces, extended surfaces have been investigated to enhancethermal performance and to minimize the cost and size of the heat exchanger equipment. One of the most important techniques is tube insert. In general,tube inserts can be classified into...
متن کاملValidation of Plate Heat Exchanger Design Using Cfd
Heat exchanger is an essential device used in complex engineering systems related to heat transfer processes in many industrial applications. Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) is an important part of a condensing or evaporating system. Among many of factors which should concentrate on, the heat transfer and pressure drop is most important part during sizing and rating the performance of PHE. Due to th...
متن کاملInvestigating Tubes Material Selection on Thermal Stress in Shell Side Inlet Zone of a Vertical Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
In this study, the effect of the tube material on the thermal stress generated in a vertical shell and tube heat exchanger is investigated. Shell and tube heat exchangers are the most common heat exchangers used in industries. One of the most common failures in these exchangers in the industry is the tube failure at the junction of the tube to tubesheet. When the shell side and the tube side fl...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of Sinusoidal Tube in Triplex-Tube Heat Exchanger during Charging and Discharging Processes Using Phase Change Materials
In this experiment effect of two full and half width sinusoidal inner tubes in triplex-tube heat exchanger with phase change material (PCM) was investigated. Length and diameter of the tubes have been chosen such that the area of each tube to be the same. Charging and discharging processes were carried out by inner tube, outer tube and both. Results indicated, PCM melting and solidification tim...
متن کاملTransient cooling of electronics using phase change material (PCM)-based heat sinks
Use of a phase change material (PCM)-based heat sink in transient thermal management of plastic quad flat package (QFP) electronic devices was investigated experimentally and numerically. Results show that increased power inputs enhance the melting rate as well as the thermal performance of the PCM-based heat sinks until the PCM is fully melted. A three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics ...
