The waste gas has the following properties: Waste gas composition: Mole fraction(= 0‚9890‚ Mole fraction()=0‚0110 Temperature = 20‚00 °C Pressure = 1‚1 bar Mass flow The task is to calculate the optimal area of the heat exchanger as a function of t1. Spreadsheet calculations and Case Studies are used to show the results. A set of assumptions is made concerning: Overall heat transfer coefficient U Costs of heat exchanger related to heat exchanger area

FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS Heat transfer is energy in transit‚ which occurs as a result of temperature gradient or difference. This temperature difference is thought of as a driving force that causes heat to flow. The concepts of heat transfer and temperature‚ the key words in the discipline of heat transfer‚ are 2 of the most basic concepts of thermodynamics. dffffffffff rifffff orfff ffffffffff fv ing ff ce Rate of transport process= fffffffffff or rate = coefficient B driving force resist

overall heat transfer coefficient on the outer surface of the covered pipe is 10 W/m2.K. if the velocity of the steam is 10 m/s‚ at what point along the pipe will the steam begin condensing and what distance will be required for the steam to reach a mean temperature of 100 oC? Question 2: Consider a horizontal‚ thin walled circular tube of diameter D = 0.025 m submerge in a container of n-octadecane (paraffin)‚ which is used to store thermal energy. As hot water flows through the tube‚ heat is

HEAT TRANSFER MECHANISMS Heat energy is being transferred from one location to another because of a temperature difference. The three mechanisms for heat transfer are: • Conduction. When you grip the hot handle of a pan on a stove‚ you feel conduction in action. Heat flows from the pan and along the length of the handle to its cooler free end. This is because one end of the rod is held at the high temperature‚ and the other end stays at the lower temperature. Although the rod itself doesn’t

Chapter 15 & 16: Temperature‚ Heat & Heat Transfer Temperature is a measure of the average (not total) translational kinetic energy. ●ex: there is 2x as much total molecular kinetic energy in a 2L of boiling water than one‚ but the temp of the two volumes are the same (average of translational kinetic energy per molecule is the same in each → Internal Energy- the total of all molecular energies: kinetic+potential (SAME TEMP) ● Ex: apply a flame to 1L h2o for a certain time and its temp rises

State Heat Transfer laboratory were to study the rates of heat transfer for different materials of varying sizes‚ to develop an understanding of the concepts of forced and free convection and to determine the heat transfer coefficients for several rods. These objectives were met by heating several rods and allowing them to cool through free convection in air‚ free convection in water and forced convection in water- while monitoring their change in temperature over change in time.
