Compact Heat Exchangers: Selection, Design, and Operation, Second Edition, is fully revised to present the most recent and fundamental ideas and industrial concepts in compact heat exchanger technology. This complete reference compiles all aspects of theory, design rules, operational issues, and the most recent developments and technological advancements in compact heat exchangers. New to this edition is the inclusion of micro, sintered, and porous passage description and data, electronic cooling, and an introduction to convective heat transfer fundamentals. New revised content provides up-to-date coverage of industrially available exchangers, recent fouling theories, and reactor types, with summaries of off-design performance and system effects and installations issues in, for example, automobiles and aircraft. Hesselgreaves covers previously neglected approaches, such as the Second Law (of Thermodynamics), pioneered by Bejan and co-workers. The justification for this is that there is increasing interest in life-cycle and sustainable approaches to industrial activity as a whole, often involving exergy (Second Law) analysis. Heat exchangers, being fundamental components of energy and process systems, are both savers and spenders of energy, according to interpretation.
This book presents the ideas and industrial concepts in compact
heat exchanger technology that have been developed in the last 10
years or so. Historically, the development and application of
compact heat exchangers and their surfaces has taken place in a
piecemeal fashion in a number of rather unrelated areas,
principally those of the automotive and prime mover, aerospace,
cryogenic and refrigeration sectors. Much detailed technology,
familiar in one sector, progressed only slowly over the boundary
into another sector. This compartmentalisation was a feature both
of the user industries themselves, and also of the supplier, or
manufacturing industries. These barriers are now breaking down,
with valuable cross-fertilisation taking place.
