Influence of Ship Vibrations on Heat Exchangers
Keywords:
Phenomenon, Heat exchangers, Vibrations
Abstract
The effect of vibrations on heat transfer has been described. The study made on a double pipe counterflow heat exchanger clearly shows that vibrations of heat exchnagers cause increase in heat transfer coefficients. The maximum increase in overall heat transfer coefficient achieved is 165%. In places where vibrations are inherently present like in ships, the onboard heat exchangers can make use of this phenomenon and increase the effectiveness of heat exchangers.
