Description
Heat Exchangers: Selection, Rating, and Thermal Design takes a systematic approach to the subject, focusing on the selection, design, rating, and operational challenges of various types of heat exchangers. Written by well-known authors in the field of heat transfer and thermal design, this book covers all the most commonly used types of heat exchangers, including condensers and evaporators.
The text begins with the classification of the different types of heat exchangers and discusses methods for their sizing and rating. Single phase forced convection correlations in ducts, two-phase flow heat transfer correlations for thermal design, and pressure drop and pumping power analysis are also covered. A chapter is devoted to the special problem of fouling. Thermal design methods and processes, including designs for condensers and evaporators, complete this thorough introduction to the subject. The appendix provides information on the thermophysical properties of fluids, including the new refrigerants. Every topic features worked examples to illustrate the methods and procedures presented, and additional problems are included at the end of each chapter, with examples to be used as a student design project. An instructor's manual is available with complete solutions to selected problems
Heat Exchangers: Selection, Rating, and Thermal Design - No engineer or engineering student involved in the design or operation of heat exchange equipment can afford to be without it.
