Abstract:
In some industrial air-cooled heat exchangers, such as those in the generating set industry, the flow must turn through 90° after exiting the heat exchanger. In such arrangements, the plenum depths are typically very shallow. Furthermore., the axial fan often operates in the mixed-flow region of the fan characteristic, due to the restrictive nature of the system. These two factors lead to a reduction in the thermal performance of the system. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect on thermal performance of inclining the heat exchanger relative to the axial fan. It was also impo

A detailed investigation of novel air-coupled absorbers for use in a diesel engine exhaust-driven ammonia-water absorption system operating in extreme ambient conditions was conducted. Electrically driven vapor-compression systems are under scrutiny due to the environmental impact of synthetic refrigerants and the exacerbation of electric utility loads during peak demand periods. One alternative to vapor-compression systems is the absorption heat pump that uses environmentally benign working fluids and can be driven by a variety of heat sources, including waste heat and solar thermal processes

This thesis describes an investigation into the acoustic phenomenon in in-line tubular heat exchangers subjected to cross flow. The flow through such a heat exchanger can result in the production of very high noise levels, which occur as a result of the excitation of an acoustic standing wave in the cavity between the tube rows. This acoustic vibration can occur in large and small heat exchangers alike, resulting in drastically impared performance and working life. The phenomenon associated with such vibration is poorly understood and considerable anomalies still exist in published literature.
