Abstract

The article presents a method of optimizing hydrodynamic and thermal parameters of heat exchange equipment. The proposed method is based on the use of the SolidWorks Flow Simulation CFD application in combination with the methods of similarity theory and dimensions. The criterion equation obtained as a result of research allows you to quickly find model parameters that satisfy the optimization conditions.
