    1562 Words  | 4 Pages

    ABSTRACT A Heat Exchanger is a device use for the heat transfer from one fluid to another, whether the fluids are separated by a solid wall so that they never mix or the fluids are directly in contact. The heat exchanger is widely used in different industries such as process, petroleum refining, chemicals and paper, power generation, chemical processing, A.C, refrigeration, and a food processing applications. Etc. Various Enhancement methods are used to increase performance of heat exchanger such

  • Baffles Essay

    2544 Words  | 6 Pages

    performance of a heat exchanger depends upon various parameters like inlet temperature of a hot fluid, type of hot fluid, type of cold fluid, shape of baffles, material of baffles, baffles angle and property of ribs. Basically fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics are largely depends upon the Reynolds number (Re). Reynolds number is basically the ratio of inertia force to viscous force. Re is only the factor by which we can decide whether the fluid is laminar or turbulent in shell and tube

    1720 Words  | 4 Pages

    Consider the parallel flow of two viscous fluids in an infinite, fully saturated, uniform, homogeneous and isotropic two porous media with the Darcy's coefficients and . The statically stable situation was considered, so the upper fluid is assumed the lighter (vapor) while the lower one is assumed to be the heaver (liquid). The two fluids are incompressible and have uniform densities and viscosities for the liquid and for the vapor. The interface between the two fluids is assumed to be well

Changing the form of Eq. (11), the torque-motor stage dynamics can be written as a state-space equation:

    basketball, will produce the greatest bounce height. This is because balls with greater elasticity in their material will lose less energy to heat and sound since it has the ability to decelerate slower due to its flexible material and thus, will transfer more kinetic energy to elastic potential energy more efficiently causing the ball to bounce

    Introduction: 2.1. Heat transfer: Heat transfer is the science that pursues to foresee the energy transfer that may take place among material bodies as an outcome of a temperature difference. Thermodynamics explains that this energy transfer is described as heat. The science of heat transfer pursues not only to explain how heat energy may be transfer, but also to foresee the rate at which the exchange will take place under certain quantified conditions. The fact that a heat-transfer rate is the desired

    ideally want to launch the ball in the highest possible speed. The one value we can measure for deformation is the coefficient of restitution (further on as ‘COR’). The COR is defined as the ability of one object to transfer energy to another at impact, between 0.0 for perfectly inelastic collision and 1.0 for perfectly elastic. In golf, it describes the ability of the golf club to transfer energy to the ball at impact. Ideally a player will want higher values of COR. When the ball is easily deformed

    Paper Airplanes, flight at its simplest for humans. As kids, we learned how to build paper airplanes and send them soaring into the sky. We didn't stop to think about why the airplanes where able to fly after the initial thrust we gave them or how they were able to glide for so long afterwards. Ignorance was bliss then, but now we strive to understand how things work. Looking back to the childhood past time of flying paper airplanes, I will try to explain some of the parts that make paper airplanes

    the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. This boils down to force equals mass times acceleration, F = ma. This little equation turns out to be immensely useful, again and again. If you add together all the forces acting on an object, they equal the mass of the object (in kg) times the acceleration of the object (in m/sec^2). Force is measured in newtons. One newton is the force required to accelerate a 1-kg mass to 1 m/sec^2. Newton’s 3rd Law The force exerted by object

  • What Is Natural Convection?

    1062 Words  | 3 Pages

    convection, fluid surrounding a heat source receives heat, becomes less dense and rises. The surrounding, cooler fluid then moves to replace it. This cooler fluid is then heated and the process continues, forming convection current; this process transfers heat energy from the bottom of the convection cell to top. The driving force for natural convection is buoyancy, a result of differences in fluid density. Because of this, the presence of a proper acceleration
