Solving the heat exchanger equations using spatial finite differences

9 Solving the heat exchanger equations using spatial finite differences [Pg.261]

As was noted in Chapter 2, Section 2.6, and Chapter 19, the most accurate method of solving a partial differential equation of the form (20.9) or [Pg.261]

Assuming that the tube-side fluid is liquid, we may apply backward differencing for the x-variable to the liquid-flow equation (20.14) so that the ordinary time differential of temperature at the end of each section [Pg.261]

Assuming, for example, that the shell-side fluid is a gas flowing in counter-eurrent mode, the equation corresponding to (20.29) for the rate of change of temperature at the end of each section for the shell fluid is derived from equation (20.20)  [Pg.261]

We take the specific volume at each point as a function of temperature at that point and the prevailing pressure in the heat exchanger  [Pg.261]
