Circulating heating of fuel oil in railway tanks is performed, as a rule, with the help of saturated steam by preparing a heating flow of fuel oil with a temperature of about 80...90°C. For the operation services of fuel oil storages, it is interesting to consider replacing steam with hot water. The behavior of the existing system of circulating heating of fuel oil of M100 brand when changing the heating medium for the heater of fuel oil flow in the form of a plate heat exchanger is considered. The initial temperature of hot water is assumed to be equal to the design temperature of 115°C in the steam-fuel heat exchanger. The values of the thermal capacity of the heater flow of fuel oil, fuel oil consumption, flow rate and the temperature of the heating water flow at the outlet of the heat exchanger are defined depending on the temperature of the heated fuel oil in the range of 80...90°C. Reducing the temperature of fuel oil at the outlet of the heat exchanger from 90 to 80°C allows to increase its capacity by 30.1%, that is, to accelerate the heating of fuel oil in the tank and reduce the time of its discharge.

This article is dedicated to the problems of reliability, long-term thermal capacity and operational efficiency rate of PTVM and KGVM hot-water boilers. Based on the analysis of statistic data, tests, and certain works on increase of efficiency and reliability of PTVM-100 tower hot-water boilers, which were performed in Kazakhstan, it may be said that the reconstruction of PTVM-100 boilers accomplished on CHP was mainly aimed at the increase of reliability while saving the operational efficiency of boilers almost without changes. If the boiler is operating on fuel oil and without periodical washes, then it is possible to achieve consistent operation only under 75% of the nominal operational load. Structural changes of the PTVM-100 boiler unit offered by authors, along with the increase of operational reliability on fuel oil and it’s thermal capacity, allow increasing boiler’s efficiency rate up to 91-92% if it is operated under nominal load and using fuel oil. Structure the new KV-GM 55 hot-water boiler with horizontal design includes the two-row bi-radiated screen wrapping around the furnace and the new arrangement of convective packs, which are now located next to each other, allowed to increase heating characteristics of the boiler significantly due to the intensification of heat exchange and decrease of temperature of gases released from behind of the boiler unit, as well as to increase boiler’s efficiency rate up to 92,5% under nominal load.

Abstract-The present work investigates the enhancement of heat transfer by using different number of circular fins (8, 10, 12, 16, and 20) in double tube counter flow heat exchanger experimentally. The fins are made of copper with dimensions 66 mm OD, 22 mm ID and 1 mm thickness. Each fin has three of 14 mm diameter perforations located at 120o from each to another. The fins are fixed on a straight smooth copper tube of 1 m length, 19.9 mm ID and 22.2 mm OD. The tube is inserted inside the insulated PVC tube of 100 mm ID. The cold water is pumped around the finned copper tube, inside the PVC, at mass flow rates range (0.01019 - 0.0219) kg/s. The Reynold's number of hot water ranges (640 - 1921). The experiment results are obtained using six double tube heat exchanger (1 smooth tube and the other 5 are finned one). The results, illustrated that the heat transfer coefficient proportionally with the number of fin. The results also showed that the enhancement ratio of heat transfer for finned tube is higher than for smooth tube with (9.2, 10.2, 11.1, 12.1 13.1) times for number of fins (8, 10, 12, 16 and 20) respectively.

This study aims to assess the effect of adding twisted fins in a triple-tube heat exchanger used for latent heat storage compared with using straight fins and no fins. In the proposed heat exchanger, phase change material (PCM) is placed between the middle annulus while hot water is passed in the inner tube and outer annulus in a counter-current direction, as a superior method to melt the PCM and store the thermal energy. The behavior of the system was assessed regarding the liquid fraction and temperature distributions as well as charging time and energy storage rate. The results indicate the advantages of adding twisted fins compared with those of using straight fins. The effect of several twisted fins was also studied to discover its effectiveness on the melting rate. The results demonstrate that deployment of four twisted fins reduced the melting time by 18% compared with using the same number of straight fins, and 25% compared with the no-fins case considering a similar PCM mass. Moreover, the melting time for the case of using four straight fins was 8.3% lower than that compared with the no-fins case. By raising the fins’ number from two to four and six, the heat storage rate rose 14.2% and 25.4%, respectively. This study presents the effects of novel configurations of fins in PCM-based thermal energy storage to deliver innovative products toward commercialization, which can be manufactured with additive manufacturing.

Readsorption occurs inside a sorbent-bed heat exchanger during the pressurization and depressurization processes, causing the adsorbate to be relocated from one end of the sorption bed heat exchanger to the other. In this paper, the readsorption processes are quantitatively determined for both the pressurization and depressurization processes in a sorbent-bed heat exchanger with a uniform initial temperature, loading, and pressure. Also, the readsorption that occurs during a typical operation of a two-bed sorption heat pump is quantified. The results show that the readsorption can cause as much as 30 percent of the ammonia in a sorbent-bed heat exchanger to be reallocated.

Recently, the big data can be employed as the economical ship operating or evaluation of ship performance conditions. However, such data cannot be easily obtained and analyzed for every ship. In this case, for example, an evaluation of ship performance during operation is usually dependent on ship owner’s experience. The time-dependent ship performance is an essential topic for ship owners because if they realize their current ship performance, they can implement something such as hull or propeller cleaning for their economical operation. This study is focused on the usage of noon report data rather than the big data due to their obtainability. Usually, such data are considered as references because different ship operational condition and environmental condition obscure current ship performance. However, our unique approach, which is used integrally the noon report data such as BHP, propeller revolution and fuel oil consumption, ship sea trial data and propeller performance, can be evaluated ship performance during ship in service. The analyzed output data can be produced as increasing of ship resistance (delta Rw) versus ship performance efficiency, fuel oil consumption (ton per day) or sea margin. Under this output conditions, it can be comparable at same conditions even though the conditions of operations are different. Therefore, this analyzed data has a potential ability to have a look at ship performance conditions during ship in service. The purpose of this paper is to introduce our unique approach using noon data for time-dependent ship performance and then discuss the verification of this approach. As the case study, the noon report data for Japanese domestic bulker was chosen and the ship performance was evaluated in terms of different points of views. It was done comparing the conditions of before and after dry dock to evaluate our approach. In addition, the potential application of this approach will be discussed in this paper.
