Evaporator Evaluation as a Heat Exchanger in Refrigeration Systems at Constant Thermal Load and Fouling Factor
Downloads
Heat exchangers are widely used in various industrial installations, one of which is their use in air conditioning systems. In the design process of heat exchangers, the main focus is to determine the dimensions of the device. This is done to determine the performance of the heat exchanger, where the calculation is based on a constant thermal load and a constant fouling factor. When the heat exchanger is first operated, the mass flow rate of the cooling fluid must be lower than the design point to maintain a constant cooling load. However, the conditions for the formation of deposits on the surface of the heat exchanger cannot be known. Therefore, designing a heat exchanger with a constant fouling factor is less realistic.
