Heat Exchangers - Thermal-Hydraulic Fundamentals and Design; Advanced Study Book
Heat exchangers are vital equipment in power producing plants; process and chemical industries; heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and refrigeration systems; and the cooling of electronics. This book focuses on thermohydraulic design, design processes, rating, and operational problems of various types of heat exchangers. One of the main objectives of this text is to introduce thermal design by describing various types of single phase and two phase heat exchangers.-- Special attention to the design of heat exchangers subject to fouling is presented-- An extensive appendix provides thermophysical properties of various fluids including the new refrigerants-- End of chapter worked examples illustrate thermal design methods and procedures-- End of chapter problems, including student design projects, enhance design applications
