Abstract

The relation for definition of necessary number of channels (plates) in designing of plate heat exchanger with different channel types is obtained. The transcendental equation for heat carriers flow rates in different channel types is received. This equation based on satisfying conditions for heat load and pressure drop on hot and cold sides. The number of channels of different channel types may be found by solving the equation with known flow rates values. The reliability and effectiveness of obtained solution demonstrated on hot tap water heater design
