Study Notes
Heat Exchangers
- The main function of a heat exchanger is to transfer heat between two fluids.
Types of Heat Exchangers
- In a cross-flow heat exchanger, heat transfer occurs between one fluid flowing through a bundle of tubes and another fluid flowing transversely over the outside of the tubes.
Applications of Cross-Flow Heat Exchangers
- Cross-flow heat exchangers are typically used in engineering applications.
Cross Flow Heat Exchanger (Model: HE350)
- The model number of the cross-flow heat exchanger used in the experiment is HE350.
- The unit is suitable for teaching students in the field of mechanical engineering.
- The custom-designed electronic interface mounted in an adjacent console provides a purpose.
- The digital thermal anemometer measures the temperature of the fluid flowing through the tubes.
- The thermal protection component provides thermal protection for the heater.
- The airflow through the blower fan can be adjusted using a variable speed controller.
- The airflow at the fan discharge is controlled by the outlet grille.
- Acrylic panels are mounted using screws and clips for different configurations of the heater tubes.
- The connectors of the heater should be connected to the power supply.
- Thermocouples are inserted into the holes in the respective acrylic boxes during an experiment.
- The residual current circuit breaker provides operator protection by supplying both fan and console.
