The total rate of heat transfer between the hot and cold fluids passing through a plate heat exchanger may be expressed as: Q = UA∆Tm where U is the Overall heat transfer coefficient, A is the total plate area, and ∆Tm is the Log mean temperature difference. U is dependent upon the heat transfer coefficients in the hot and cold streams. [2]
The theoretical plate concept was also adapted for chromatographic processes by Martin and Synge. [6] The IUPAC's Gold Book provides a definition of the number of theoretical plates in a chromatography column. [7] The same equation applies in chromatography processes as for the packed bed processes, namely:
The peculiarity of this gas-liquid contactor is that the gas comes in contact with liquid through different stages; [1] each stage is delimited by two plates (except the stages at the top and bottom of the column). Some common applications of plate columns are distillation, gas-liquid absorption and liquid-liquid extraction. In general, plate ...
Some PTC heating elements are designed to have a sharp change in resistance at a particular temperature. These elements are called self-regulating because they tend to maintain that temperature even if the applied voltage [1] or heat load [2] changes. Below that temperature, the element produces a large amount of heating power, which tends to ...
A plate-fin heat exchanger is made of layers of corrugated sheets separated by flat metal plates, typically aluminium, to create a series of finned chambers. Separate hot and cold fluid streams flow through alternating layers of the heat exchanger and are enclosed at the edges by side bars. Principal Components of a Plate Fin Heat Exchanger
A spot plate, also called a reaction plate, color test plate, [1] or spotting tile (British English), is a laboratory tool made either from ceramics or plastics. [2] Each plate consists of many cavity-like depressions in which only small amount of reactants can be added at a time. [ 3 ]
The liquids to be stirred are held in beakers, jars, or Erlenmeyer flasks that are placed over the table or, sometimes, in test tubes or vials that are nested into holes in the plate. [3] Platform shakers can also be combined with other systems like rotating mixers for small systems and have been designed to be manufactured in laboratories ...
Lift the plate out of the bath, drain and wipe the back, load it into a plate holder and protect from light with a dark slide. Load the plate holder into the camera, withdraw the dark slide and expose the plate (can range from less than a second to several minutes) Develop the plate (using a ferrous sulfate based developer)
