Heat transfer surfaces design and fouling of the heat exchangers from hollow plastic fibers
Bokišová, Lenka ; Dohnal, Mirko (referee) ; Raudenský, Miroslav (advisor)
This thesis studies a possibility of using hollow fibres for construction of innovative heat exchangers. The first part introduces to the field of heat exchangers and polymers as materials suitable for formation of heat transfer surfaces. Further, the potential of hollow fibres of small diameters is outlined, including the merits, limits and proposals for improving. The significant part of the work is dedicated to the review of methods of fibres fixation and separation and review of fouling and cleaning of heat exchangers. Overviews of design possibilities which prevent fibres clustering have been made. The solutions, which are prepared for experimental research at Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow Laboratory are stated, including analysis of “curly” fibres application. The next part presents calculations for models of water – water and water – air heat exchangers and discusses influence of fibre diameter, flow velocity and the other parameters on heat characteristics. The heat transfer and fluid flow formulas using for heat exchangers of a bigger order can be employed with small changes. Furthermore, the influence of hollow fibres arrangement and distances on heat transfer is discussed.
