A Numerical Model Development for Cryogenic Spiral Wound Heat Exchanger Design Considering Temperature dependent thermo-physical properties, Heat Leakage, and Longitudinal Heat Conduction
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Afshin, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
Cryogenic temperature is below than 123 Kelvin and any physical study that occurs below this temperature is Cryogenic science. Cryogenic has varaiety of application in medical, industry, food, oil and gas etc. Based on this paper and its relavant source spiral wound HE is one of the most optimum HE for cryogenic application specially for helium liquification cycle. In order to liquefy helium in helium cycle efficiency of spiral wound HE shall be over than 85 percent. For this reason and special fluid behavour in low temperature considering property variation, heat in leak and axial conduction is vital for calculating efficiency in cryogenic temperature of helium liquification cycle. In this...

Abstract
Due to its unique properties, helium has wide application in different industries and scientific fields, which has turned it into a strategic material. Helium liquefaction plants include wide temperature range from 300 k to 4.2 k, so these plants have high energy consumption. A lot of studies have done to optimize the operation of these cycles. In this research, an exergy analysis is performed for a liquid helium production plant. The optimal performance of 3 and 4 stage cycles is extracted using parametric study and the results are compared with those of Collins dual-expander cycle. The results show that by increasing the number of cooling stages, not only the compressor optimum discharge...
