INTRODUCTION

There is a need to construct buildings with small loss of energy. Such buildings were constructed in China by Professor Leon R. Glicksman of MIT ( L.R.Glickman and J.H. Lienhard, Modeling and Approximation in Heat Transfer )

We define work as W ,Pressure as P and displaced volume as dV. Then we obtain dW = PdV.

HEAT EXCHANGERS ENERGY BALANCE

An energy balance between a hot fluid and cold fluid is as follows:

Net rate of heat outflow by convection + rate of heat transfer between 2 streams = 0.

    C p  d T/dx = a {Tc – TH }

where

C p is the specific
