Design of heat exchanger for feeding heat water network 5,5 MW

The Master thesis deals with the water-heater design for heat-exchange station with total power output 5,5 MW. The goal of the thesis is to make thermal and hydraulic calculation in the extent of the assignment and to develop a projection drawing of the heater along with a correct dimensioning of the shell and flanges. Thesis goals were met according to the assignment. The introductory part of the thesis briefly introduces to the heat-exchanger problematic and selected topics about heat-transfer. Following the basic mass and energy flows calculation inside the heater together with the thermal and hydraulic design determines the size of the heat transfer surface of pipes. After that the design calculations were made, whose results are used to determine the basic dimensions of selected parts and checking the accuracy of designed dimensions. In the last part of the work the design process is more described also with a more detailed description of selected parts
