Steam to Water Heat Exchanger

Steam to Water Heat Exchanger
Steam to Water Heat Exchanger for Science Lab Equipment Laboratory Instruments Manufacturers, Engineering Lab Equipments Manufacturers
The Steam to Water Heat Exchanger is self contained and designed for bench top use having it own steam generator and condenser tubes housed in a thick walled glass cylinder.
The tubes may be connected in a single, double or four pass configuration and full instrumentation is provided for the investigation of the thermal performance in each configuration.
A differential pressure manometer also allows the pressure drop due to velocity to be investigated in each configuration.
Experimental Capabilities of Steam to Water Heat Exchanger:
    Visual demonstration of filmwise condensation and nucleate boiling.
    Demonstration of the increase in Steam to Water Heat Exchanger effectiveness due to increasing the number of tube passes at constant flow rates.
    Measurement of the effect of coolant flow velocity and the number of tube passes on pressure drop.
    Investigation of the effect of increasing flow velocity and the number of tube passes on the overall heat transfer coefficient.
    Investigation of the saturation pressure/temperature relationship for H2O at low pressures.
