Finned-Tube Heat Exchanger Flow Testing

Heat exchangers move heat from one fluid to another. Shell and tube exchangers and plate exchangers are two common types. In a shell and tube exchanger, one fluid flows through a set of tubes while a second fluid flows around them to cool or heat the first stream. In a plate heat exchanger, fluids move between closely joined...

Heat exchangers transfer heat between two species and are used for a wide variety of applications from car radiators to large-scale chemical plants. There are many heat exchanger designs including shell and tube exchangers and finned tube exchangers. For these an array of tubes and fins is used to transfer heat from the hot fluid to the cold flu...
