TICF Cross Flow Heat Exchanger for TICC

The Cross-Flow Heat Exchanger for TICC, "TICF", designed by EDIBON, provides an effective thermal research tool by enabling the study of heat transfer between two fluids in a cross-flow configuration. In this system, a stream of hot water from the base unit interacts with an airflow generated by a fan through a perpendicular radiator.

This heat exchanger features an innovative design that allows for adjusting its operation to enhance performance and ensure adequate heat flow between the fluids. Additionally, it enables conducting practices such as the overall energy balance in the exchanger, determining effectiveness using the NTU Method, analyzing the influence of flow rate on heat transfer by calculating the Reynolds number, evaluating the correction factor F, and studying the effect of temperature differential on the heat transfer coefficient.

In summary, the Cross-Flow Heat Exchanger for TICC, "TICF", offers a unique opportunity to deeply understand and apply the fundamental principles of heat transfer in this specific configuration. This type of exchanger is widely used in various industries where transferring heat between two fluids flowing in orthogonal directions is required, enabling efficient and controlled thermal exchange. From building cooling and heating systems to the food and beverage industry, as well as the chemical and automotive industries, the Cross-Flow Heat Exchanger for TICC, "TICF," designed by EDIBON, becomes an invaluable educational and research unit for students, teachers, and researchers interested in understanding this type of exchangers.

To work with this unit, the Base and Service Unit, "TIUS", is required, which provides key functions such as heating water using a thermostatic bath, pumping hot water, regulating and measuring the flow rates of cold and hot water, measuring the inlet and outlet temperatures of cold and hot water, as well as measuring the pressure drop in the heat exchanger.

These Computer Controlled Units are supplied with EDIBON Computer Control System (SCADA), and includes: The unit itself + a Control Interface Box + a Data Acquisition Board + Computer Control, Data Acquisition and Data Management Software Packages, for controlling the process and all parameters involved in the process.
