After completing the reading, exercises, and the associated homework you should be able to:
Describe the construction of a double pipe heat exchanger, what it does and how.
For a double pipe heat exchanger in both parallel flow and counter flow configurations
Calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient for the heat exchanger
Calculate the log mean temperature difference for the heat exchanger
Calculate the rate of heat transfer
Use the LMTD-F method to perform heat exchanger design problems.
Use the ε-NTU method to perform heat exchanger analysis problems.
Define heat exchanger effectiveness, ε
Define number of transfer units, NTU
Note: Any term in bold is a key vocabulary term that you should be able to define, regardless of whether or not that is the specific learning objective.
