Entropy generation in a counterflow heat exchanger has been analysed in detail and expressions have been derived in terms of relevant non dimensional parameters. In the case of nearly ideal heat exchangers with nearly balanced capacity rate, an expression for entropy production has been derived whic

This paper presents a theoretical analysis of a heat exchanger with a negligible fluid flow pressure drop to determine whether it is better to operate the heat exchanger with the minimum or maximum heat capacity rate of the hot fluid from entropy generation point of view. Entropy generation numbers
Three-dimensional simulations of four louver-tube junction geometries are performed to investigate the effect on louver and tube friction and heat transfer characteristics. Three Reynolds numbers, 300, 600 and 1100, based on bulk velocity and louver pitch are calculated. Strong three-dimensionality
