“…This is because the power generation inside a turbomachinery is proportional to the volume (~r 3 ) while turbomachinery losses are proportional to the surface (~r 2 ). Similar discussion on this subject can be observed for the gas turbine case from the previous work [24].…”

“…The performance improves monotonically as the size increases. This result is in accord with theoretical advances on the effect of size on efficiency in thermofluid flow systems in general [17,19].…”

“…Clearly, studies in these fields also consider the methods of design, the numerical tools to investigate the performances of a heat exchanger, and also the times that such a tool requires for a reasonable design. Rohsenow et al [1], Kays and London [2], and Bejan and Lorente and Bejan et al [3,4] have largely investigated these issues. Yang et al [5], You et al [6], Caputo et al [7] have given valid examples of optimization and design techniques related to heat exchangers.…”
