Overall heat transfer coefficient
U - accounts for overall resistance to transfer caused by wall [W/m^2K]
Fudge Factor? (Fancy F)
_______
Delta T / Tlm [-] mean temp driving force in exchanger compared to that of countercurrent flow, which is the very best possible
NTU?
Number of Transfer Units, based on a particular phase [-]
P? (x-axis on diagrams)
delta Ti / delta Tmax. Temp change of phase i compared to max possible temp change [-]
•
q ?
Rate of heat gain by a phase [W]
Q
Heat lost or gained by a fluid up to a given point in the exchanger [J/kg of one of the phases]
R? (y-axis on diagrams)
Ratio of temp changes or heat flows of the fluid [-]
Tlm?
Log mean temperature driving force [K]
delta Tmax
Max temp difference between phases [K]
•
M, C,T?
Refer to shell-side flow rate, specific heat, and temp
