The paper analyses the feasibility of determining the parameters of a heat exchanger operating in the crop production and realising low-temperature heat recovery from biological processes. For the first time, the Flownex 8.7 Simulation Environment has been used for this purpose. The temperature of the waste water was between 20 and 30°C. On the basis of the simulations, the power of the heat exchanger is determined to be 1 MW. The heat exchanger can efficiently heat up cold water from a deep well (7-10°C) to an assumed temperature of 19.7°C. The results from the simulation calculations correspond to the results obtained under actual conditions within a range of up to 2%.
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.
