Printed Circuit Heat Exchangers (PCHEs): A Brief Review
Heat exchangers and other heat transfer devices/systems play vital roles of heat transfer in thermal fluid flow systems for industrial application. Sodium cooled fast reactors are normally designed to have two loops of sodium coolants and one loop of water coolant which generates steam for power production.

Printed circuit heat exchangers and fast neutron radiography
AbstractNon-destructive testing is capable of detecting defects of important components, where a failure could pose a significant hazard and cause severe economic losses. Currently, imaging techniques utilizing gamma or X-ray sources are mainly used and allow to examine of devices ranging in size from units to tens of centimetres, but for industrial ...

Thermo-Mechanical Calculation of Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger Using Homogenization
The Finite-Element Method (FEM) is mainly used to design Compact Heat Exchanger structures. However, the narrow channel structures require fine mesh to accurately compute stress and strain. Combined with the dimensions of the overall component, this leads to an excessively large numerical model and therefore long computing time. This is especially true
