How to Calculate Number of Heat Transfer Units?
Number of Heat Transfer Units calculator uses Number of Heat Transfer Units = (Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient*Area of Heat Exchanger)/Minimum Capacity Rate to calculate the Number of Heat Transfer Units, The Number of Heat Transfer Units formula is defined as the heat transfer capacity of the heat exchanger. In the NTU method, the effectiveness of the heat exchanger is expressed in the form of three non-dimensional terms. The NTU method is useful when minimum data is provided for calculating heat transfer. Number of Heat Transfer Units is denoted by NTU symbol.
How to calculate Number of Heat Transfer Units using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Number of Heat Transfer Units, enter Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient (U), Area of Heat Exchanger (A) & Minimum Capacity Rate (Cmin) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Number of Heat Transfer Units calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.2672 = (40*6.68)/1000.
