Abstract | ||||
Entropy generation is an effective tool in energy process analysis and optimization. Problems as entropy generation in heat exchangers due to pressure losses and due to hut transfer are discussed. The entropy generation number Ns provide, a meaning for evaluating the performance of a heat exchanger. The performance of in-line tube bank are studied at constant relative transfer pitch with variable relative longitudinal pitch and vice-versa. The results of the performance showed that there is a minimum entropy generation occurs at particular Reynolds number and number of transfer units for each tube bank. | ||||
