2、y reducing the cooling effectiveness of the system. Figure 8.4.1 depicts, schematically, a cross-section of an air-cooled heat exchanger. In the absence of wind, the buoyant jet or plume rises vertically above the heat exchanger. A part of the warm plume air may however be drawn back into the inlet
3、of the tower. This phenomenon is known as recirculation. Plume recirculation is usually a variable phenomenon influenced by many factors, including heat exchanger configuration and orientation, surrounding structures and prevailing weather conditions. Because of higher discharge velocities, recircul
4、ation is usually less in induced draft than in forced draft designs. Figure 8.4.1: Air-flow pattern about forced draft air-cooled heat exchanger. Lichtenstein 51LI1 defines a recirculation factor as mmmmmr rrar /)/( (8.4.1) where mr is the recirculating air mass flow rate, while ma is the ambient ai
5、r flow rate into the heat exchanger. Although the results of numerous studies on recirculation do appear in the literature, most are experimental investigations performed on heat exchangers having specific geometries and operating under prescribed conditions e.g. 74KE1, 81SL1.

Problems associated with solving recirculating flow patterns numerically have been reported 81EP1. Kroger et al. investigated the Page 2 of 42 problem analytically, experimenta

For purposes of analysis, the heat exchanger is represented by a straight line at an elevation Hi above ground level as shown in figure 8.4.2(a). Figure 8.4.2: Flow pattern about heat exchanger. It is assumed that the v
9、elocity of the air entering the heat exchanger along its periphery is in the horizontal direction and has a mean value, vi (the actual inlet velocity is highest at the edge of the fan platform and decreases towards ground level). The outlet velocity, vo, is assumed to be uniform and in the vertical
10、direction. Consider the particular streamline at the outlet of the heat exchanger that diverges from the plume at 1 and forms the outer boundary of the recirculating air stream. This streamline will enter the platform at 2, some distance Hr below the heat exchanger. For purposes of analysis it will

If viscous effects, mixing and heat transfer to the ambient air are neglected, Bernoullis equation can be applied between 1 and 2 to give )(2/)(2/ 222211 rioorioo HHgvpHHgvp (8.4.2) It is reasonable to assume that the total pressure at I is approximately equal to the stagnation pressure of the ambient air at that elevation i.e. 1211 2/ ao pvp (8.4.3) At2 the static pressure can be expressed as 2/2222 vpp aa (8.4.4)
