N2  - Heat exchangers are essential in a wide range of engineering applications, including power plants, automobiles, airplanes, process and chemical industries, and heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration systems. Revised and fully updated with new problem sets, Heat Exchangers: Selection, Rating, and Thermal Design, Fourth Edition presents a systematic treatment of heat exchangers, focusing on selection, thermal-hydraulic design, and rating.

Topics discussed include

    Classification of heat exchangers

    Basic design methods of heat exchangers for sizing and rating problems

    Single-phase forced convection correlations for heat exchangers

    Pressure drop and pumping powerfor heat exchangersand piping circuits

    Design methods of heat exchangers subject to fouling 

    Thermal design methods and processes for double-pipe, shell-and-tube, gasketed-plate, compact, and polymer heat exchangers

    Two-phase convection correlations for heat exchangers

    Thermal design of condensers and evaporators

    Micro/nanoheat transfer

The Fourth Edition contains updated information about microscale heat exchangers and the enhancement heat transfer for applications to heat exchanger design and experiment with nanofluids. The Fourth Edition is designed for courses/modules in process heat transfer, thermal systems design, and heat exchanger technology. This text includes full coverage of all widely used heat exchanger types
