HEXvle2vle L3 2ph CH simple

Created Friday 01 November 2013

A cylindrical preheater model with non-ideal phase separation at the shell side. A commonly used geometry for high pressure preheaters, i.e. the Header-type tube arrangement is assumed

1. Purpose of Model

This model is well suited to model transients of commonly designed high pressure preheaters.

2. Level of Detail, Physical Effects Considered and Physical Insight


2.1 Level of Detail

Referring to Brunnemann et al. [1], this model refers to the level of detail L3 because the system is modelled with the use of balance equations applied to three different zones of the component: liquid condensate at tube side, vapour and liquid volume at shell side.

7. Remarks for Usage


7.1 Naming

The naming of heat exchangers in this package follows some specific form that is defined as follows:

7.2 Heat Transfer Modelling

In most cases the heat transfer from one fluid to the other will be dominated by the heat transfer at one of fluid boundary layers. In that cases the heat transfer coefficient α at this side will be considerably smaller than on the other side. From a numerical point of view it is disadvantageous to have very high (close to infinite) heat transfer coefficients on either sides. If you want to take nearly ideal heat transfer at one of the sides into account please consider the corresponding replaceable model instead of defining arbitrary large heat transfer coefficients in the model.
