Title: DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF COMPACT HEAT EX-CHANGER FOR MULTIPLE PURPOSE USAGE
Abstract: In many industrial applications compact heat exchangers role became important because to enhance of heat transfer rate and for better performance. Further the compact heat exchangers are being considered for heavy duties to increase more heat transfer by involving the phase change processes at boiling and also condensation. In mean while understanding the thermal-hydraulic characteristics of flow passages for compact heat exchangers the phase change vitally important. But for those compact heat exchangers, which have long been used for boiling and condensation duties, the design procedures are based on local two-phase characteristics. As new type of compact heat exchanger with modified design and with enhancement are capable of handling single phase as well as phase change duties. These new exchangers are being increasingly used in single-phase applications, and at the same time, they are also being considered for two-phase duties. In this present paper describes the design and fabrication of fin based compact heat exchanger for industrial applications as well as automobile industry. In this context, a review on performance of compact heat exchangers with different configurations is presented. The enhanced heat transfer techniques for compact heat exchangers in various applications
