Measurement of the characteristics of the ventilation pipe of the filtration system for the steam-gas medium of a nuclear power plant

The dependence of the heat power of a pipe (air-air heat exchanger) on the flow rate and the temperature of the heating air is investigated experimentally. The temperature fields along the height of the pipe are measured. In the experimental velocity range 1.2-9.5 m/sec and heating-air temperature r...

Description
Summary:The dependence of the heat power of a pipe (air-air heat exchanger) on the flow rate and the temperature of the heating air is investigated experimentally. The temperature fields along the height of the pipe are measured. In the experimental velocity range 1.2-9.5 m/sec and heating-air temperature range 120-280C, the heat power depends strongly on the temperature and negligibly on the flow rate of the heating air. Increasing the cold-air flow rate increases the thermal power in direct proportion.
