The paper presents an experimental investigation of a silicone based heat exchanger, with passive transfer intensification by means of surface enhancement. main objective this was to experimentally investigate the performance exchanger module the enhanced surface. Heat in test section has been examined and described precise measurements thermal and flow conditions. Reported tests were conducted...

This study aims to provide an experimental investigation and comparison of the condensation heat transfer characteristics in a plate–fin exchanger (PFHE). The flux, mass saturation pressure were adjusted as parameters verify effects on transfer. In addition, correlation two-stream PFHEs was provided based data for utilization design reference exchanger. turbulence is most influential One ways f...

Two figures of merit for hybrid Thermal Energy Storage (TES) units are developed: the volumetric figure of merit, V~ , and the temperature control figure of merit, T~ ∆ . A dimensional analysis shows that these quantities are related to the performance specification of the storage unit and its physical design. A previously benchmarked semi-empirical finite volume model is used to study the char...
