Abstract :
A method of determining a given heat exchanger´s thermal properties from the characteristics of the cooling medium is discussed. A test method is presented with an example which helps to clarify the results. It is concluded from running tests using three to four different liquids that heat exchanger thermal performance data can be derived for liquids having a wide range of liquid properties.
