The 3rd Step in Heat exchanger design a preliminary estimate of the size of the exchanger is made,using a heat-transfer coefficient appropriate to the fluids, the process,and the equipment. Generally we can get reference from various resources listed below, either expected heat flux (W/m2) or range of heat transfer co-efficient. based on this information, we can […]
During Resent days, I was trying to design thermosiphon reboiler! After long days of calculation, rewriting calculations on pages! on excel! finally I come to some ‘lesson learn’ which I’ll be sharing now. But before that, following are two good references to design a thermosiphone reboiler1. Applied Process Design Volume-3 by Ludwig2. Process Heat Transfer – […]
Hi Guys… For Past so many days, missed my blogging instinct. Now I’m back, with some spare time, lets start with Knowledge sharing! Keep Reading & Smile
The next step is to decide which type of exchanger to be used?The industrial heat exchanger are varies depending upon 1. Transfer process.2. Number of fluids3. Compactness.4. Constriction.5. Flow arrangement.6. Type of heat transfer.See attached figure for more details.
<p>The first step dorm designing a heat exchanger is to understand where it will be used for.</p><p>Application is most important criteria and mostly its input from client.</p><p>Application demands understanding of functionaries expected, duty needed, properties of both side fluids, system information e.g presuredrop expected, cleaning method of the equipment, hazard category, local laws pertaining to […]
Yup, just a brief on this subject. Heat exchangers are devices used to transfer heat energy from one fluid to another, gas to gas or gas to liquid. Typical heat exchangers are seen around in most unexpected location. From household appliances as air conditioners, refrigerator etc. Boilers and condensers in thermal power plants are examples […]
If you Google the word you will get morecthan a billion results. That just shows how it closely associated to industry, to us. But at the same time ut shows how wast the subject is. The purpose of next few blows is to simplify your search by telling you what to ask and where to […]
Past few months I was thinking of creating a post on heatexchangers. I think now is the time when i can write a bit on this subject. There are numerous sites available which will explain verwell about this subject. But as usual they lack the subject matter. What we all are interested in. The […]
I was studing some heads for a while, and thougth to summarise the variety in one go… 1. Flanged Head : Normally found in Vessel opertaing at low pressure, genrally water tanks, Boilers etc. They are also used in high pressure application where the diameter is small. 2. Hemispherical Head : Generally, the required thickness […]
