Abstract :
This paper outlines the methods used to design an impedance-heated fluid heat exchanger. It provides suggestions for determining the method to transfer heat from pipe walls to fluid, to choose electrical pipe wall heating, and to select electrical controls. The paper also provides actual operating data and includes cost and operating advantages of this type of heat exchanger
