Problems of Heat Transfer in Agitated Vessels

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Practical Aspects of Chemical Engineering

Abstract

In the chapter, the problems of heat transport in the agitated vessels, equipped with a jacket or coil, are analysed on the basis of our own and literature results of the studies. Different measurement methods of mean and local heat transfer coefficients were described. The results of the experimental studies on the heat transfer coefficient in agitated vessels of different geometry were compared and discussed.
