Analytical Entropy Analysis of Recuperative Heat Exchangers
Abstract: The analytical solutions for the temperature variation of two streams in parallel flow, counter flow and cross-flow heat exchangers and related entropy generation due to heat exchange between the streams are presented. The analysis of limiting cases for the relative entropy generation is p...
