This article is devoted to the dynamic study of a brazed plate heat exchanger (BPHE). First, is proposed an introduction to the industrial context of the current FUI THERMOFLUIDE project. A succinct presentation of the heat exchanger technology is proposed. Afterward, is given a state of the art about BPHEs modeling, heat transfer and pressure drop correlations. Then a detailed mathematical description of an original dynamic model is presented. The last section deals with a description of the experimental test rig and performed validation tests.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
