1 1 MER 439 - Design of Thermal Fluid Systems Project 3 Heat Exchanger Optimization Professor Anderson Spring 2012

2 2 A Heat Recovery System

3 3 Basic design concept  Finned-Coil Heat Exchanger http://www.wieland-thermalsolutions.de

4 4 Basic design concept  You are to specify the number of tubes and their geometric layout (how many rows top to bottom) how long (side to side) and how many deep (in the flow direction) and the fin spacing.  The spacing, diameter, and composition of the tubes is “set”  Technical and Economic Constraints are given.

5 5 “Governing” Equations Empirical equations based on your company’s vast experience designing these kinds of systems are supplied. Pressure Drop for Air in the duct and Ethylene Glycol in the tube First Cost of Heat exchanger Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient
