Effect of tube-to-tube conduction on plate-fin and tube heat exchanger performance.

Author(s) : ROMERO MENDEZ R., SEN M., YANG K. T., MCCLAIN R. L.

Type of article: Article

Summary

On the one hand the fins are extended surfaces which enhance convective heat transfer to the over-tube fluid and on the other they increase tube-to-tube conduction. The former is desirable while the latter, as shown in the paper, degrades the performance of the heat exchanger.
