In almost any nuclear, chemical, or mechanical system, heat must be transferred from one fluid to another. Heat exchangers are used to transfer heat from one fluid to another. A basic understanding of the mechanical components of a heat exchanger is essential to understanding how they function and operate.
This 2-hour course utilizes US Department of Energy training materials (DOE-HDBK-1018/1-93, Mechanical Science, Vol. 1, Module 2) to describe the purpose, construction, and principals of operation for each major type of heat exchanger: parallel flow, counter flow, and cross flow.
The course content is generic in nature. Specific information on a particular heat exchanger should be obtained directly from the manufacturer.
This course includes a True-False quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of the course materials.
