Abstract:Additionally, THERMOFLEX has the capability of estimating sizes of shell-and-tube heat exchangers, which although are not anticipated for use in our reference design, give an upper bound on component sizes, and are presented in Table 2. The high temperature recuperator requires approximately 14,000 m 2 of surface area given an overall heat transfer coefficient of 500 W/°C•m², which translates to a size of 4.9 by 23.6 m. As mentioned earlier this is about twice or more the size of the other heat exchangers, and… Show more
