CONSTRUCTION OF HEAT EXCHANGER FABRICATION OF A TUBE AND SHELL HEAT EXCHANGER SYSTEM ABSTRACT There are two methods of constructing heat exchangers: Plate type. Parallel flow-the hot fluid and the coolant flow in the same direction. Counter flow:- The hot fluid and the coolant flow in opposite direction. Cross flow: The hot fluid and the coolant...

ABSTRACT The aim of this project was to construct shell and tube heat exchanger with fixed boundless. A heat exchanger that would cool 5 x 5 x 10 – 3 kg/s of steam at a calculated heat load of 152 – 395/S was fabricated. The steam is to reach the heat exchanger from a distillation column at a temperature of 300k. The specification of... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT According to the modern or dynamical Theory of heat: Heat a form of energy. The molecules of a substance are in parallel motion. The mean Kinetic energy per molecules of the substance is proportional to its absolute temperature. In description of heat, a molecule may consist of one or two or many atom depending upon the nature of the gas.... Continue Reading

CHAPTER ONE BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Introduction The term ‘Viscosity’ describes a material’s property from a physicists point of view, it is a fluids thickness. Scientifically speaking, It is the measure of a fluids internal flow resistance to being deformed. (Szekely, 1999). Some liquid flow more easily than others do, for example honey is...

ABSTRACT Majority of farmers in Nigeria harvest a large proportion of maize under conditions of high humidity, and sadly enough, they lack equipment for drying the grains. The farmers store the grains at conditions of high moisture and humidity which results in growth of organisms that cause deterioration. One of the most important operations... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The effect  of Heat treatment on the Mechanical Properties of a welded joint of medium carbon steel has been carried out.  The materials were cut, welded, to get 27 samples needed. Thereafter, Heat Treatment was carried out on the samples. Then the specimens were grouped into two groups, group A and group B. In group  A, after the heat... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT This research work presents the results of the thermal power calibration of Nigeria Research Reactor-1 (NIRR-1), a low power Miniature Neutron Source Reactor (MNSR), using calorimetric and heat balance methods. The calibration was performed at two different power levels: half power (15kW) and full power (30kW). The calorimetric method... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Turbulent flow is a type of fluid flow in which the fluid undergoes irregular fluctuations. The velocity of the fluid at a point is continuously undergoing changes in both magnitude and direction. Turbulent natural convection has been studied both numerically and theoretically. It plays an important role in the field of heat transfer and... Continue Reading
