Types of heat exchanger
Heat exchange is the equipment which transfers heat from hot fluid to cold fluid with maximum rate and minimum investment. There are various types of heat exchanger based on application and process requirement. Here is the list of some basic types of heat exchanger. Types of heat exchanger On the basis of nature of […]
Thermal conductivity of material
The thermal conductivity of a material is the rate of heat transfer from a unit thickness of material per unit area and unit temperature difference. For example, if the rate of heat transfer for a material is k with thickness 1 meter and the temperature difference of 1 Kelvin and areas of the 1 square-meter, […]
Thermal conduction mechanism in solid liquid and gas
Initially, thermal conduction was known as diffusion. Heat flow is the term used when conduction is within a single body while heat transfer is the term when conduction is between tow separate body in physical contact. Heat transfers from hot body to cold body. Thermal conduction can be defined as the transfer of heat from […]
