dc.description.abstract | Plate heat exchangers are classified on the basis of number of passes on each side
and the flow arrangement in each channel, taking into account the end plate effects.
This results in four configurations each for the 1-1 (1 Pass-l Pass), 2-1, 2-2, 33,4-
1,4-2, and 4-4 arrangements, and six configurations for the 3-1 arrangement.
These arrangements are analyzed using the Gauss-Seidel iterative finite difference
method; the plate arrangement that yields the highest effectiveness in each pass
configuration is identified. Comprehensive results are presented in tabular form for
the temperature effectiveness PJ and log-mean temperature difference correction
factor F as functions of the number of transfer units NTU/J the heat capacity rate
ratio R/J and the total number of thermal plates. On the basis of these results,
specific guidelines are outlined for the selection of appropriate plate heat exchanger
configurations. | en_US |
