...Abstract Abstract In order to improve the boiler efficiency, latent heat recovery from the flue gas is very important concept. Three kinds of countercurrent cross-flow heat exchangers, which consist of bare tubes, spirally finned tubes of fin pitch 5 and 10mm, were designed and used...

... 13 05 2008 This research studies the effectiveness of Phase Change Material (PCM) as a thermal insulation for a pipe. The objective of using PCM is to utilize its latent heat to minimize heat loss by absorbing heat loss from the pipe, which minimizes net heat loss from the pipe...
