CROSS-FLOW WATER-TO-AIR HEAT EXCHANGER

Shows how cross-flow water to air heat exchangers work.

This heat exchanger mimics those used in the process industry. It is similar to those used as a cooling radiator for combustion engines in automobiles, or in heating ducts for air-conditioning. It shows heat transfer by forcing air over a series of metal tubes through which water passes. Learn about CROSS-FLOW WATER-TO-AIR HEAT EXCHANGER manufacturers for optimal educational outcomes.. As the air passes around the tubes, the heat present in the water transfers to the turbulent flow of air. A fan with controllable air flow forces the air through a horizontal metal duct containing the metal tubes. Learn about CROSS-FLOW WATER-TO-AIR HEAT EXCHANGER suppliers for optimal educational outcomes.. Heated water from the service module passes through the metal tubes. The metal tubes are at right angles (90 degrees) to the air flow, creating a cross-flow heat exchanger. Learn about CROSS-FLOW WATER-TO-AIR HEAT EXCHANGER exporters for optimal educational outcomes.. Metal plates or 'fins' surround the tubes, also at right angles to the air flow. These fins increase the effective surface area of the heat exchanger.
