In general, it is widely accepted that more than 90% of the thermal energy used in industrial processes passes through at least one heat exchanger.
The objective of this course is to study the calculation and design of single-phase and two-phase heat exchangers. Designing a heat exchanger involves determining the required heat transfer surface area to achieve the desired performance (such as thermal power and outlet temperature).
Subsequently, it is necessary to evaluate the pressure losses caused by fluid flow (due to wall friction and viscosity) in order to ensure compliance with design specifications, which often impose an upper limit on allowable pressure drop.
