Primes

• Counter-Current Exchange
  • The structural consequence is sharp and quantitative: the extraction efficiency asymptotes toward one as contact length grows, where the co-current limit is one-half.

    This sourceThe effectiveness-NTU formalism showing counter-flow exchangers asymptote toward unity effectiveness as NTU grows while parallel-flow (co-current) caps near one-half, governed by the same first-order rate equation. (

Mechanisms

• Capacity-Rate Balancing Control
  • The number it defends is the ratio Cr = C_min/C_max

    This sourceDefines the heat-exchanger capacity-rate ratio as the smaller heat-capacity rate divided by the larger.
