Plot the CO2 temperature (°C) on the ordinate versus H on the abscissa, using H 0 for the outlet state as the reference state.
The enthalpy of normal liquids changes nearly linearly with temperature. Therefore, in a single-pass countercurrent heat exchanger for two normal liquids, the temperature profiles of both fluids are nearly linear. However, the enthalpy of a high-pressure gas can be nonlinearly related to temperature because the constant pressure heat capacity becomes very large in the vicinity … Read more
