Time factor of storage type heat exchanger Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Time Factor = (Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient*Surface Area*Total Time Taken)/(Specific heat of matrix material*Mass of Solid)
n = (h_Conv*SA*t_total)/(cs*ML)
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Time Factor - Time Factor is the elements of limited time intervals, contributing to particular results or situations.
Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter per Kelvin) - Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient is the heat transfer due to convection.
Surface Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Surface Area of a three-dimensional shape is the sum of all of the surface areas of each of the sides.
Total Time Taken - (Measured in Second) - Total Time Taken is the total time taken by the body to cover that space.
Specific heat of matrix material - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram per K) - Specific heat of matrix material is the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the matrix material by one degree.
Mass of Solid - Mass of Solid is the weight of the solid per unit length of the matrix.

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.
