General Description

TXC/FF. Free and Forced Convection Heat Transfer Unit for TSTCC: study of the performance of different exchangers, analysing the heat transmission coefficients of each of the exchangers exposed to different air flows.

This unit allows to study the efficiency of different exchangers, analyzing the heat transfer coefficients of each of the exchangers exposed to different airflows. A fan placed in the upper part of the tunnel allows controlling the airflow that goes through the tunnel.
