The Cost

Redesigning of a system is a modification of existing system for reducing the disadvantages over the system and improves the features for getting more output that are desired. For redesigning the existing conventional heat exchanger by the new designed heat exchanger. Conventional heat exchanger has a major disadvantage consuming more space, high cost and maintenance is difficult. Plate heat exchanger has a major advantage over a conventional heat exchanger are that the liquid are exposed to main larger surface area because the liquids spread out over the plate. It is a specialized design well suited to transferring heat between low pressure liquids. The plate produces an extremely large surface area which allows for the fasten possible transfer and studying the plate material, gasket material, chevron angle, and surface enlargement angle. Design a plate heat exchanger by according more advantages and evaluate the cost of newly designed heat exchanger and compared to existing heat exchangers and validate the designs by flow analysis.

Plate heat exchangers, a compact-type heat exchanger, are commonly used heat transfer devices because of their superior characteristics. Their thermal performances are strongly dependent to working fluid circulating inside the system. The influences of nanofluid utilization as the working fluid in a plate heat exchanger was experimentally and numerically analysed in this study. In order to show off the improvement rate in heat transfer, the experiments were performed by using deionized water and TiO2-deionized water nanofluid. The nanofluid was prepared at the rate of 1.5 % as weighted. A surface-active agent, Triton X-100, was also doped into the mixture at the rate of 0.2% of a final concentration to prevent the sedimentation and flocculation of the nanoparticles inside the solution. The experiments were performed in different temperatures as 40°C, 45°C, 50°C and varying cold fluid mass flow rates as 3,4, 5, 6 and 7 lpm.  In addition, using the experimental data, a numerical simulation was realized by ANSYS Fluent software.  The both results indicate that heat transfer rate in plate heat exchanger can be improved using nanofluid as the working fluid in place of deionized water. The maximum improvement rate in heat transfer was obtained as 11 % in experimental study. It is also seen that experimental and numerical results are in good agreement.©2019. CBIORE-IJRED.
