Investigation on the heat transfer characteristics of propylene glycol–water mixture in the shell side of a spiral‐wound heat exchanger
The heat transfer characteristics of propylene glycol–water (PG–W) mixture (10%, 20%, and 30% propylene glycol) on the shell side of a spiral‐wound heat exchanger (SWHE) were investigated experimentally. Among the SWHE selected, there are 18 twined tubes with a diameter of 8 mm. PG–W mixture is on the shell side and water is on the tube side. The results show that the heat transfer coefficient of PG–W mixture flowing downwards is higher than upwards under countercurrent conditions. The heat transfer coefficient decreases with the increasing of concentration of PG–W mixture. When the inclination angle of the SWHE is 90°, the heat transfer coefficient of PG–W mixture is the largest; and when the inclination angle is less than 90°, the heat transfer coefficient decreases with the decrease of inclination angle. The inclination angle has a great effect on the heat transfer coefficient at a high concentration. The fitting correlation equations between Nu, Re, Pr, and inclination angles of SWHE are established.
