TY - JOUR AU - Patel, Nurul TI - The Runge-Kutta Method for Heat Exchanger Fouling: A Comparative Study JO - Open Access Journal of Engineering Applications PY - 1993 VL - 17 IS - 1 SP - 463 EP - 484 AB - Widespread interest in heat exchanger fouling stems from its far-reaching consequences for the operation of ship building. Laboratory specimens representative of ship building are tested and the data analysed using the Runge-Kutta method. The proposed correlation predicts heat exchanger fouling with a standard error of about 45%. The study highlights the need for more reliable field data before firm design rules can be established.
