A Comparative Thermal and Economic Investigation of Similar Shell & Tube and Plate Heat Exchangers with Low Concentration Ag-H<sub>2</sub>O Nanofluid

Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) and Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger (STHE) with identical heat transfer areas and material characteristics are proposed and a comparative thermal and economic comparative analysis is carried out on both exchangers. Ag-water nanofluid is used at low concentrations (0, 2.5, 5,...
