Heat exchanger Definition and 154 Threads

I am building an evaporative heat exchanger for my final project in a transport phenomena course in college. I am having difficulty in finding equations that I can either use or derive for my particular type of exchanger. Does anyone have any ideas where I can find or derive equations to deal...

Hello! In heat exchanger (U-type) I've problem with erosion/corrosion at beginning of tubes in heat exchanger,near tube-sheet where steam enters.i suspect cavitation is problem. on tubes there's a channel of erosion in the middle of tube where material is gone and tube is very thin in that...

Adiabatic heat exchanger problem... Please Help! I have this proplem as a homework assignment and I'm a bit stuck as houw to set it up. Here it is: Propane gas enters a continuous adiabatic heat exchanger at 40 degrees C and 250 kPa and exits at 240 degrees C. Superheated steam at 300...

Hello, I have some problems in resolving this exercise. Consider a cylindrical heat exchanger, whose you know all caracteristics (such as : inside diameter, outside diameter and its length). This exchanger is used to cool an oil phase with water. We know the flow of water, its Cp and its...
