The Design of a Heat Exchanger for Cooling Gases which Contain Large Quantities of Particulate Material

摘要

An analysis of the combined effects of pressure drop and heat-transfer characteristics of a bank of heat-exchanger elements shows that streamline elements are preferable. With the gas flow external to the element, slender airfoil elements would be preferred to round tubular elements. For in­ternal flow, long, smooth surfaces with rounded entries would be desired.
