Abstract
The transient mixed mean temperatures of the two gases leaving a crossflow heat exchanger are found for a unit step increase in the entrance temperature of either gas. The temperature responses are given in graphical form for the range of parameters: Ntu from 1 to 8, capacity rate ratio from 0.6 to 1.67, and conductance, ratio from 0.5 to 2.0. The solutions are found using the Laplace transform method and apply to single-pass crossflow exchangers with neither gas mixed.Keywords
