Heat Transfer In Tube Banks In Crossflow

Heat transfer, resistance, and characteristics of flow across banks of smooth, rough, and finned tubes in a wide range of variation of typical parameters have long been investigated at the Institute of Physical and Technical Problems of Energetics of the Academy of Sciences of the Lithuanian SSR. The authors of the present book accumulated additional material on the study of local and average heat transfer for in-line and staggered banks of tubes and the determination of their optimal pitch, roughness parameters, finning and effectiveness. A method is suggested for generalizing of experimental data to optimize the design of tube banks and to give the desired heat transfer and resistance characteristics. The material is enhanced with new data and is presented to the reader in a convenient form - as graphs and generalized equations normally required for practical computations.

Heat exchangers are a crucial part of aerospace, marine, cryogenic and refrigeration technology. These essays cover such topics as complicated flow arrangements, complex extended surfaces, two-phase flow and irreversibility in heat exchangers, and single-phase heat transfer.

Comprehensive and unique source integrates the material usually distributed among a half a dozen sources. * Presents a unified approach to modeling of new designs and develops the skills for complex engineering analysis. * Provides industrial insight to the applications of the basic theory developed.

For more than 50 years, the Springer VDI Heat Atlas has been an indispensable working means for engineers dealing with questions of heat transfer. Featuring 50% more content, this new edition covers most fields of heat transfer in industrial and engineering applications. It presents the interrelationships between basic scientific methods, experimental techniques, model-based analysis and their transfer to technical applications.

The motion of fluids is never in parallel- or counter-flow in heat exchangers and tube banks, leading to complexities in the equations for calculating their transferred heat and temperatures. This review of the topic includes 70 design and verification tables.
