Abstract

The exergoeconomic analysis is carried out on enhanced heat transfer surfaces at low temperature. A new criterion for evaluating the performance of enhanced heat transfer surfaces at low temperature is proposed. It can be applied to various augmentation techniques and generalizes the performance evaluation criteria obtained by means of the first and second law analysis. The validity of the new performance evaluation criterion is illustrated by the analysis of heat transfer characteristics at low temperature and assessment of the heat transfer cost of two types of enhanced heat transfer surfaces.
