Abstract

This chapter provides a review of the methods used in the thermal analysis of heat exchangers. Equipment used in double-pipe (hairpin), shell-and-tube, and plate heat exchangers is described. The overall heat-transfer coefficient, fouling factors, LMTD (logarithmic mean temperature difference) correction factor, and heat-exchanger effectiveness are introduced and examples of their use are given. The thermal analysis of a double-pipe heat exchanger is illustrated in detail, as is the thermal rating of a shell-and-tube exchanger. Alternate approaches for providing fouling allowance in heat exchanger design are also discussed.
