Performance of Heat Exchangers | Thermal Engineering

In this article we will discuss about the performance of heat exchangers. The indicated parameters are: m = mass flow (kg/ s) c = specific heat (J/kg-deg) t = fluid temperature (deg C) Δt = temperature drop or rise of a fluid across the heat exchanger. Subscripts h and c designate the hot and cold fluids respectively; subscripts 1 and [...]
