Hydraulic And Thermal Performances Of A High Temperature Ceramic Plate-Fin Heat Exchanger (Pfhe), Vijaisri Nagarajan, Yitung Chen, Qiuwang Wang, Ting Ma

College of Engineering: Graduate Celebration Programs

  • Numerical analysis was carried for novel configuration of high temperature PFHE
  • Fluid flow and heat transfer properties were studied for various fin configurations
  • Ripsaw fin design with thickness of 0.05 mm gives maximum heat transfer with less pressure drop and friction factor
  • Validation and parametric study were carried out for all fin configurations
