Design Of a Plate Type (chevton Plate) Heat Exchanger

Heat transfer rate Q=U*A*(F*(T)lm)

()lm=(T1-T2)/ln(T1/T2)

T1=Thot in-Tcold out ( counter flow)

= Thot in -Tcold in ( parallel flow)

T2=Thot out –T cold in (counter flow)

=T hot out – T cold out (parallel flow)

F=correction factor =1 (purely parallel or counter flow)

R=(T hot in – T hot out)/(T cold out – T cold in)

Pc=(T cold out – T cold in)/(T hot in – T cold in)

Pressure loss P=(2f*Lv*P*Gc^2)/(*De) + (1.4 *Gp^2)/2 + *g*Lv

f=Kp/Re^m

P is the number of pass

Gp is the fluid mass velocity in the point

Gp=4M/πDe^2

Gc= m / (b*Wp)

Gc = mass flow rate per channel

Ap = Effective heat transfer area

= φ*Wp*Lp

Φ = plate area enlargement factor

Wp = plate width

Lp = plate length

Lp = Lv - Dp

Wp=LH + Dp

De=2*b/φ

Q=U*A*Tm

Tm=F*Tlm
 A=Np*Ap

Np= number of plate

U=1/ ((1/h hot)+tp / kp +(1/ hcold )+Rfcold + Rfhot)

Tp = plate thickness

Kp = plate thermal conductivity

Nc = (Np-1)/2

Nc = number of channel
