Information

Basic model of a cross-flow heat exchanger based on the effectiveness-NTU method.

The equations are derived from the generic effectiveness-NTU relations which can be found in the "VDI Wärmeatlas" and noumerous standard literature.

For stream dominated applications the following assumptions are made for mass flow regularization close to zero:

- if the mass flow on both sides of the heat exchanger is zero, no heat is transferred
