商品簡介
Citing a lack of comprehensive and in-depth textbooks on specific heat exchangers, Wang (Siemens Industrial Turbines, Sweden), Sunden (Lund Institute of Technology, Sweden) and Manglik (U. of Cincinnati) present a text focusing on plate heat exchangers (PHEs), suitable for graduate and PhD students, and as a reference source book for professionals. Coverage includes a general introduction and historical background to PHEs; construction and operation, including PHE types and plate pattern; material issues and manufacturing methods; basic design methods for both single-phase and two-phase flow cases, various flow arrangements, thermal-hydraulic performance in single-phase flow and for PHEs operating as condensers and evaporators; fouling problems; extended design and operation issues, including computational fluid dynamics methods; and unique features of PHEs. Illustrated throughout with b&w photographs, diagrams, tables, and charts. Annotation c2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
