Abstract

Heat is the term distinct as the amount of energy transferred by the virtue of the temperature difference. The heat flows from the region of maximum temperature to minimum temperature by the different methods of heat conveyed. This paper focuses on the study of heat transfer in the heat exchanger which is a device used for transfer of thermal energy and consists of two or additional fluids or between surface of fluid and solid to solid particulates and a fluid at different temperature, thermal constant with and without outside heat and work communications. The parameters of heat transfer are analyzed in different types of heat exchangers. This examination explores the warmth move and the weight drop of cone helically curled cylinder heat exchanger utilizing Al2O3/water nanofluids. The Al2O3/water nanofluids at 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6% molecule volume fixations were set up with the expansion of surfactant by utilizing the two advance strategies. The experimental study of heat transfer in various heat exchangers is discussed.
