THE THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF EFFICIENCY OF USE OF SHORT DIFFUSERS IN COMPACT HEAT EXCHANGERS
The report is devoted to an assessment of increase of efficiency of air heat exchangers by means of improvement of distribution of cooling air. The technique of carrying out the engineering analysis of the heatexchange equipment on the basis of ANSYS CFX is developed. Calculation of the tubular heat exchanger with several options of diffusers is executed, the analysis of results is carried out. Improvement in operation of the heat exchanger when using directing to diffuser designs is revealed.
