Hello Baluncore, as what i know the countercurrent flow is 2 fluids flow in opposite direction, the heat transfer efficiency is much more higher than that of concurrent flow. I am not sure whether the heat exchange by countercurrent can be 4 times(?) higher than that of concurrent.
For the time...
I am currently working on my college project about the design and optimization of plate heat exchanger. However, i have no idea where to start the project. Here is my first thought:
- I set the hot and cold fluid to be water, 90 degC for the hot inlet and 30 degC for the cold inlet.
- 50mm inlet...
