Summary

Important European co-ordinated research activities in heat exchangers are within the European Community Non-Nuclear Energy R&D Programme entitled JOULE, while national governments and a wide variety of industrial laboratories and companies also carry out work in these areas. The paper covers the past and present JOULE activities in a number of ways. R&D projects within this programme include gas-gas, gas-liquid, gas-solid and liquid-liquid heat exchangers, with high, medium and low temperature terrestrial process applications. Projects currently being studied within JOULE concentrate mainly on two-phase heat transfer enhancement and fouling of both gas-side and liquid-side heat transfer equipment.
