A nanofluid is mixture of nano sized particles and a base fluid. This paper investigates by using laboratory based double pipe heat exchanger model, the performance of nanofluid containing about 48.46nm  particle size nanoparticles (ZnO) without or with addition of nonionic surfactant Rokanol K7 (500ppm) into the base fluid double distilled water to prepared three different concentrations 1.0%,...

in this work, the characteristics of flow and heat transfer of a fluid containing nano particles of aluminum oxide with the water volume fraction (0.1-0.2-0.3)(v/v) percent of the reports. the overall heat transfer coefficient, heat transfer and the average heat transfer fluid containing nano water - aluminum oxide in a horizontal double pipe counter flow heat exchanger under turbulent flow con...

This paper presents how the thermal performance of an existing finned-tube heat exchanger is determined experimentally. In the experiment, heat is transferred from an exhaust gas stream to a thermal oil. The experimental setup is discussed including the thermal fluid selection process, the components, instrumentation and resultant measurement uncertainty. The heat transfer is calculated individ...

Microchannel heat exchangers (MCHXs) are now widely used in the HVAC&R industry. Similar to tube-fin heat exchangers used mainly in the indoor units, the innovative variable geometry microchannel heat exchanger will further reduce its compact size and enhance its performance. Variable geometry refers to a heat exchanger with different tube and fin surfaces within the same core with one or more ...

Title of Document: DEVELOPMENT OF AN ADVANCED HEAT EXCHANGER MODEL FOR STEADY STATE AND FROSTING CONDITIONS Varun Singh Doctor of Philosophy, 2009 Directed By: Reinhard Radermacher, Professor Department of Mechanical Engineering Air-to-refrigerant fin-and-tube heat exchangers are a key component in the heating, air conditioning and refrigeration industry. Considering their dominance, the indust...

This paper presents a comprehensive and exclusive thermodynamic analysis of counter flow heat exchanger under various operating and geometrical conditions. Analysis system (ANSYS) workbench 14.0 has been used for computational analysis and comparison with previous literature has been carried out in view of variable temperature and mass flow rate of hot and cold fluids. An analytical and statist...

This study focuses on the various experimental research analyses on performance of tubular heat exchangers the tubular heat exchanger is used throughout various industries because of its inexpensive cost and handiness when it comes to maintenance. In this paper we discus about tubular heat exchanger there are several thermal design factors that are to be taken into account when designing the tu...
