HEAT EXCHANGER ENGINEERING TECHNIQUES: PROCESS, AIR CONDITIONING, AND ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS

Nee shares his professional experience with selecting heat exchangers for commercial installations, particularly in terms of surface, good fluid distribution, operation, maintenance, construction, shipping, handling, and cost. The main part of the book addresses process exchangers, with chapters on air cooler fans, plate exchangers, longitudinal fin tubes, fouling factors, techniques to reduce the size of an exchanger, and the significance of metal temperature. Examples of failures and troubles caused by incomplete procedures or an omission of requirements are described. Shorter discussions of air conditioning exchangers and the cooling of electronics conclude the book
