Original Abstract

Polymerichollow-fiberheat-exchangers (PHFHEs) have recently attracted great attentionsfortheir superiorcharacters, from light weight to high chemical resistance, as compared with that ofmetal-based heat exchangers (MBHEs). In this article, a PHFHE, which can be usedfor carradiators, is built to test its thermalperformancein an experimental wind tunnel. A MBHE,which uses stainless steel tubes, has also been built with the major geometrical parametersequivalent to that of the PHFHE tested, so that the results from these two heat exchangers can becompared with each other. Experimental results indicate that the heat flow of the PHFHE can be more than 11% higher than that of the stainless-steel heat exchanger at similar operationconditions.
