Summary: | High efficiency heat exchanger is always a hot topic, and field synergy theory is introduced as an important means to optimize the heat transfer efficiency. Based on the field synergy theory, a new type of heat exchanger is proposed in this paper, in which, the cold and hot fluid presents reverse cross flow law. Through the verification of the test and numerical simulation results, a reasonable numerical simulation model and method are obtained. Then, the flow and heat transfer conditions of the new structure heat exchanger are simulated by the verified numerical simulation technology. The conclusion is as follows: K-ε turbulence model and coupled heat transfer model can be effectively used in the numerical simulation of heat exchanger. And the reverse cross convection heat exchanger can effectively improve the uniformity of water temperature distribution in the heat exchanger.
