The performance of the heat exchanger is defined by the optimized Rankine cycle (to achieve maximum power) and it depends on the mass flow and temperature of the flue gases and selection of the working fluid in Rankine cycle. An example of selection of the preheater performance (in case of water as the working fluid) is considered here, wherein the several surface types of finned tube and plate-finned heat exchangers are used, for which there are measured data of the heat transfer coefficient and friction factor. Heat exchangers are sized according to the criteria of maximum allowed velocity of the flue gases and shapes of the heat exchanger frontal area. The sized heat exchangers were compared with respect to the heat transfer coefficient, the area of the heat exchanger surface on the finned side, the volume of the heat exchanger TI - Comparison of Finned Tube and Plate-Finned Heat Exchangers in Waste Heat Recovery JO - Transactions of FAMENA DO - 10.21278/tof.42si101 DA - 2018-05-08 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/comparison-of-finned-tube-and-plate-finned-heat-exchangers-in-waste-77zNpR7zeD DP - DeepDyve ER -
