Flow-induced vibrations in heat exchanger tubes have led to numerous accidents and economic losses in the past. Fluidelastic instability is the most critical flow-induced vibration mechanism in heat exchangers. Both e...
Ash deposition is a form of particulate fouling, and appears usually in boiler economizers. The ash deposition increases capital expenditure, energy input and maintenance costs. An analog experiment for monitoring ash...
The flow patterns, pressure drop, and heat transfer characteristics of shell and tube heat exchangers with different shell side structure were studied systematically by experiments. Experiments show that the optimal a...
The enhancement of convective heat transfer in a glass tube heat exchanger was researched.A simple and efficient method using spiral wire turbulence promotors in the glass tube isrecommended.A series of experiments we...
