Effectiveness of double pipe counter flow heat exchanger given C equal to 1 Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Effectiveness of Heat Exchanger = Number of Transfer Units/(1+Number of Transfer Units)
ϵ = NTU/(1+NTU)
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Effectiveness of Heat Exchanger - The effectiveness of heat exchanger is defined as the ratio of the actual heat transfer to the maximum possible heat transfer.
Number of Transfer Units - The number of transfer units is defined as ratio of overall thermal conductance to smaller heat capacity rate. NTU designates non-dimensional heat transfer size or thermal size of the exchanger.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Number of Transfer Units: 12 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ϵ = NTU/(1+NTU) --> 12/(1+12)

Evaluating ... ...

ϵ = 0.923076923076923

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.923076923076923 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.923076923076923 ≈ 0.923077 <-- Effectiveness of Heat Exchanger

What is Heat exchanger?

A heat exchanger is a system used to transfer heat between two or more fluids. Heat exchangers are used in both cooling and heating processes. The fluids may be separated by a solid wall to prevent mixing or they may be in direct contact. They are widely used in space heating, refrigeration, air conditioning, power stations, chemical plants, petrochemical plants, petroleum refineries, natural-gas processing, and sewage treatment. The classic example of a heat exchanger is found in an internal combustion engine in which a circulating fluid known as engine coolant flows through radiator coils and air flows past the coils, which cools the coolant and heats the incoming air. Another example is the heat sink, which is a passive heat exchanger that transfers the heat generated by an electronic or a mechanical device to a fluid medium, often air or a liquid coolant.
