3 Capacity of A Simple Heat Exchanger A representative temperature difference for heat communication:

4 Discussion on LMTD LMTD can be easily calculated, when the fluid inlet temperatures are know and the outlet temperatures are specified. Lower the value of LMTD, higher the value of overall value of UA. For given end conditions, counter flow gives higher value of LMTD when compared to co flow. Counter flow generates more temperature driving force with same entropy generation. This nearly equal to mean of many local values of  T.

5 Sample Problem Problem Statement: A double pipe heat exchanger of the dimensions shown below is employed to heat 5 kg/s of Dowtherm A from 15 to 65 0 C using waste hot water coming from process equipment, which is cooled from 95 to 75 0 C.

6 Effectiveness of A HX Ratio of the actual heat transfer rate to maximum available heat transfer rate. Maximum available temperature difference of minimum thermal capacity fluid. Actual heat transfer rate:

7 Maximum Possible Heat Transfer

8 Dimensionless Groups for HXs Thermal capacity Ratio: R = 0 corresponds to condensing or evaporating HX. R < 1 a general heat exchanger. Exchanger heat communicative Effectiveness:

9 Number of Transfer Units

10 Arithmetic of A Simple Counter Flow HX

12 HX with Equal Capacity FLuids 

13 Parallel Flow Heat Ex T ci T ce T hi T he

14 The limiting case of interest: R = 1.

15  NTU Curves: Counter Vs parallel flow

16 Two limiting cases of interest: R = 1 Counter flow Heat exchanger: Parallel flow Heat exchanger:

17 HX with Equal Capacity FLuids 

18 Condensing/Evaporative HXs The limiting case of interest: R = 0. Counter flow Heat exchanger: Parallel flow Heat exchanger:

19 Condensing/Evaporative HXs NTU 

20 Thermal Resistance of A Finite Heat Exchanger Thermal resistance of a finite adiabatic Heat Exchanger

21 Heat Transfer between two fluids separated by finite thick surface wall

22 First Level Engineering Compromise: Area Energy Balance:

23 Second Level Engineering Compromise:  T LM

24 Third Level Engineering Compromise: variation of U U

25 Creative Ideas for Techno-economic Feasibility of a HX. For a viable size of a HX: How to maximize Effective area of heat communication?. How to maximize Overall Heat transfer coefficient? How to compute & select the effective temperature difference? Should we decrease or increase Effective temperature difference?
