Abstract

Transient behavior of co-current parallel flow three-fluid compact heat exchangers with the effect of two-dimensional longitudinal heat conduction through the separating sheet and axial dispersion in fluids has been investigated numerically by using the Gauss–Seidel iterative technique for step excitation provided to hot fluid inlet temperature. The results reveal that the performance of the heat exchanger is affected when two-dimensional longitudinal conduction in separating sheets and axial dispersion in fluids are considered.
