Abstract
An approximate equation together with empirical coefficients is presented for the fast calculation of the mean temperature difference of nine countercurrent cross-flow arrangements, as applied in air-cooled heat exchangers. The same equation can be used for other flow systems, as demonstrated for one shell-and-tube arrangement.Keywords
