摘要
A computer code was developed for the analysis of air-cooled heat exchangers and was coupled with a constrained function minimization code to produce an automated air-cooled heat exchanger design and optimization program with many new capabilities. A general iteration free approximation method was used for the analysis which calculates the mean overall heat transfer coefficient and the overall pressure drop for many flow arrangements, taking into account the variation of the heat transfer coefficients and the pressure drop with temperature and/or length of flow path. The code is not limited to surfaces found in the literature, but will accommodate any triangular pitch bank of finned tubes in multiple-pass configurations. (Author)
