Thermal Heat Exchanger

The ThermalHeatExchanger models thermal energy transfer between two parallel streams using either an effectiveness or heat flow. Pressure losses may be applied to each stream.

Usage

  • Energy exchanged between the two streams is defined by an AU map defined in the S_map socket along with dPqP1 and dPqP2.

  • The calculations are based on 'Compact Heat Exchangers. Third Edition' by W. M. Kays and A. L. London, The National Press, 1984.
