Heat Exchanger Design Handbook

Heat Exchanger Design Handbook
It was an education to go through the Heat Exchanger Design Handbook authored by Mr. T. Kuppan.

The author should be complemented for his attempt in compiling relevant and useful information for all types of heat exchangers covering design concepts, materials, fabrication, quality control and other in-service related problems. So far, many practicing engineers need to refer to several books/codes to know the various aspects relating to heat exchangers.

The author has done his best to bring out the Handbook for ready reference with formulae, data and with good illustrations. This reference book will be very useful to consultants, designers, manufacturers and users of heat exchangers and will also serve the interests of educational institutions. I hope this book will benefit the industry and will find worldwide acceptance. ---A. Srinivasulu, FNAE, CE (India), FIE., Managing Director, Germanischer Lloyd Industrial Services India Pvt.Ltd.,Chennai, INDIA Formerly Director, Engg. and R&D, BHEL, New Delhi, INDIA This book is a compendium of several topics pertaining to the design of heat exchanger design. Besides basic concepts and thermal design of heat exchangers, inclusion of topics such as mechanical design, materials selection, fabrication, quality control and testing during heat exchanger manufacture is a speciality of this treatise. It is rare to find such a volume integrating several topics giving a throughness to the design of heat exchangers. The book addresses to the need of both academics (UG and PG level) and practitioners. ---Prof. S. Subramanyam, Ph.D., Former Vice-Chancellor, Bharathiar University,Coimbagtore, INDIA The Heat Exchanger Design Handbook is a valuable addition to the thermal engineering literature.

It is an excellent source book for heat exchanger design and is unique in that it gives a comprehensive coverage of such topics as mechanical design of-, corrosion in-, and materials for heat exchangers that are generally not touched upon in-depth in books of this genre. The chapter of Heat Exchanger Thermohydraulic Fundamentals will be a very useful reference for teachers of this subject. Practising engineers should find this book a veritable goldmine of information on all aspects of heat exchangers - conception, design, fabrication, inspection and maintenance. I am sure that the monumental task creditably accomplished by the author, keep this tome as a centerpiece of the heat exchanger literature for many years to come. ---Prof. V. M. Krishna Sastri, Ph.D.(Delaware), Fellow ASME, Fellow INAE, Fellow Alexander von Humboldt, Emeritus Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai, INDIA
