Abstract

In order to establish a reliable procedure for estimation of air pressure drop, experiments on plate finned tube heat exchangers have been conducted, as well as the research on the open literature. The procedure of Kays and London was tested against the experimental data and significant level of uncertainty was found. Using own experimental data, as well as previously published data of Kays and London, new correlation for estimation of air pressure drop has been established. Statistical parameters of new correlation enable the conclusion that it can be used for wide range of Reynolds numbers.
