First, the development of thermo-conductive plastics is introduced. Second, in order todetermine the rational geometric dimensions of thermo-conductive plastic finned tubes, an objectivefunction which takes the minimum volume of the consumed material for making finned tubes as an ob-ject is introduced. On the basis of the function, the economy comparison between thermaxonductiveplastic finned tubes and metal finned tubes is conducted.展开更多

The temperature trans-fer matrix was obtained for the air preheater that comprises several discrete heat transfer units with same or different heat transfer surface area in a parallel or counter flow mode. By using the temperature transfer matrix, the outlet fluid temperatures could be easily calculated for a given air preheater and inlet fluid temperatures. The active length of condenser in a variable conductance heat pipe is determined according to the flat interface model. With the same initial conditions, the comparisons between variable conductance heat-pipe air preheater and regular heat pipe air preheater has been analyzed and tested in terms of heat pipe wall temperature, heat transfer surface area and outlet fluid temperatures. Based on the real industrial applications, it has been confirmed that the variable conductance heat pipe air preheater has excellent performance of anti-corrosion and anti-ash-deposition especially at the variable working condition and the sulfur coal (5%-6% mass fraction of sulfur) condition.展开更多
