FS-3.4 - Fluid Science Plate

The FS-3.4 Fluid Science Plate Heat Exchanger tray includes experimentation to demonstrate indirect heating or cooling by transfer of heat from one fluid stream to another when separated by a solid wall (fluid to fluid heat transfer) in a plate heat exchanger.
The tray introduces students to concepts such as heat transfer coefficients, thermal resistances, controlling resistance and heat transfer driving forces. The heat exchanger can be used in a co-current or countercurrent configuration.
