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.
How to Calculate Mass of solid per unit length of matrix?
Mass of solid per unit length of matrix calculator uses Mass of Solid = (Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient*Surface Area*Total Time Taken)/(Time Factor*Specific heat of matrix material) to calculate the Mass of Solid, Mass of solid per unit length of matrix formula is defined as a measure of the mass distribution of solid material within a heat exchanger matrix, which influences the efficiency of heat transfer and overall performance of the system. Mass of Solid is denoted by ML symbol.
How to calculate Mass of solid per unit length of matrix using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Mass of solid per unit length of matrix, enter Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient (hConv), Surface Area (SA), Total Time Taken (ttotal), Time Factor (n) & Specific heat of matrix material (cs) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Mass of solid per unit length of matrix calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5.882353 = (0.51*18*78.43137)/(8.16*15).
