Abstract

In this paper an experimental study has been conducted to investigate heat transfer coefficients and effectiveness for acetic acid- water miscible system in the spiral heat exchanger (SHE).Cold fluid is Acetic acid –water solution while hot fluid is water. Experiments have been conducted by varying the mass flow rate of cold fluid (5 % to 30% Acetic acid in water) from 0.0833 Kg/sec to 0.133 Kg/sec and keeping the hot fluid flow rate constant then the values of Reynolds number and heat transfer coefficient are calculated.
