Fundamentals of Heat Exchangers: Selection, Design, Construction, and Operation details the design and construction of heat exchangers in both research and industry contexts. This book is split into three parts, firstly outlining the fundamental properties of various types of heat exchangers and the critical decisions surrounding material selection, manufacturing methods, and cleaning options. Other sections provide a comprehensive grounding in the theory and analysis of heat exchangers, guiding the reader through thermal design. Finally, the book shows how to apply industrial codes to this process with detailed demonstrations, designing a shell-and-tube exchanger compliant with important but complex code ASME, Sec. VIII, Div.1.

Taking into account the real-world considerations of heat-exchanger design, this book takes a reader from fundamental principles to the mechanical design of heat exchangers for industry or research.

Über Autor(innen)

Nemati, Hossain
Dr Nemati has more than 22 years of academic and industrial experience. He is the author and co-author of 43 top peer-reviewed journals and conference articles. Besides his academic activities, he is a professional in the design and construction of different types of exchangers, especially shell and tube heat exchangers and air coolers. He has cooperated on several large-scale petrochemical projects.

Ardekani, Mohammad Moghimi
Since 2013 Dr Ardekani has been actively involved in the design and optimisation of new technologies and devices in the fields of renewable energy (solar thermal technologies in particular), thermal energy storage, and multiphase-based (including nanofluid) heat sinks. He has published 55 articles in top peer-reviewed journals and prestigious conference proceedings, one book, two book chapters and a webinar in collaboration with different research institutes and companies around the world including Imperial College London (UK), the University of Clarkson (USA), and the National Technical University of Athens (Greece). He has secured research grants for, managed, and delivered funded projects worth over £1.7m. Previous to his academic career, he worked in solar thermal, oil, gas and petrochemical plants for over 4 years. His scientific activities have earned him the international Green Talent Award from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) which introduced me as a top young scientist in Green Energy in 2015, while he was also named a Promising Young Researcher (Y2 rating) by the National Research Foundation of South Africa. He is on 3 editorial boards and a reviewer of 19 notable accredited journals.
