Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2012, vol. 16, issue 4, 1883-1891

Abstract: This study presents the advances in plate heat exchangers both in theory and application. It dresses the direction of various technical research and developments in the field of energy handling and conservation. The selected areas of heat transfer performance and pressure drop characteristics, general models and calculations change of phase; boiling and condensation, fouling and corrosion, and welded type plate heat exchangers and finally other related areas are highlighted.
