In a cross-flow, where one system, usually the heat sink, has the same nominal temperature at all points on the heat transfer surface, a similar relation between exchanged heat and LMTD holds, but with a correction factor. A correction factor is also required for other more comp...
The correction factor is ameasure of the heat exchanger's departure from the ideal behaviorof a counter flow heat exchanger having the same terminal temperatures. The correction factor depends on the efficiency of the temperature and the ratio of heat capacity for a particular flow arrangement. Wha...
Performance analysis of a novel compact air-air heat exchanger for aircraft gas turbine engine using LMTD methodIn this article, a new compact cross-flow air-air heat exchanger is designed using logarithmic mean temperature difference method (LMTD) and its performance is experimentally investigated ...
In the present study, we developed a predictive mathematical model based on a counter flow heat exchanger analogy for the DCMD process. Two methods were used to analyze the water permeate flux across one hydrophobic membrane layer, namely the log mean temperature difference (LMTD) and the ...
