TE4092 Design of Heat Exchangers Syllabus:
TE4092 Design of Heat Exchangers Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
1 To make students familiarize with the various types of heat exchangers
2 To explain the importance of thermal and stress analysis of heat exchangers
3 To inculcate the thermal design aspects of tubular heat exchangers
4 To provide the details of design aspects of compact heat exchangers
5 To explain the function and design aspects of condensers and cooling towers
UNIT- I FUNDAMENTALS OF HEAT EXCHANGER
Temperature distribution and its implications types–shell and tube heat exchangers– regenerators and recuperators – analysis of heat exchangers–LMTD and effectiveness method
UNIT- II STRESS ANALYSIS
Effect of turbulence – friction factor – pressure loss – stress in tubes – header sheets and pressure vessels – thermal stresses, shear stresses –types of failures.
UNIT- III DESIGN ASPECTS
Heat transfer and pressure loss – flow configuration – effect of baffles – effect of deviations from ideality – design of double pipe – finned tube – shell and tube heat exchangers – simulation of heat exchangers
UNIT- IV COMPACT AND PLATE HEAT EXCHANGERS
Types–merits and demerits–design of compact heat exchangers, plate heat exchangers– performance influencing parameters– limitations.
UNIT- V CONDENSERS AND COOLING TOWERS
Design of surface and evaporative condensers–cooling tower –performance characteristics
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
