It is the ratio of (mdot*Cp)min/(mdot*Cp)max where the heat exchanger contains two fluids for which the mdot*Cp should be calculated for each to determine which one is greater. by doing so one can define the ability of one fluid to carry thermal/heat energy with respect to the other. so this is a way of saying how well can heat be transferred and so how effective is the heat exchanger

What factor most influence the amount of energy needed to change the temperature of a substance?
specific heat capacity
How does heat capacity makes water a good heat sink?
If a body of water has a high heat capacity, it can store more thermal energy making it a good heat sink.
What is the speciic heat capacity of KNO3?
What is the specific heat capacity of kno3
Is the heat capacity of a body the same as its specific heat capacity?
The heat capacity depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/K.The specific heat capacity not depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/mol.K.
What is another way to say heat capacity?
Another way to say heat capacity is thermal capacity.
What is the ratio of heat capacities for evaporator and condenser?
Heat Capacity Ratio "C" is Zero for both Condensor & Evaporator
Heat exchanger for ammonia absorption refrigeration system?
there are two type of heat exchanger in absorption refrigeration, first is liquid heat exchanger and other is gas heat exchanger.both heat exchanger function is same, to transfer heat (hot medium to cold medium) without violate second newton law of thermodynamics. liquids heat exchanger is between boiler and absorber vessel mean while gas heat exchanger between evaporator and absorber.
Exchanger is not transfer heat why?

Our well-experienced and dedicated employees consistently thrive to serve our customers with the best heat exchanger solution. visit :: heatexchangersmanufacturers.in
What is heat exchanger duty?
The duty of a heat exchanger can be defined in an easy way as "The amount of heat exchanged from a fluid at a higher temperature to the fluid at lower temperature in unit time by a heat exchanger is called its duty"
Difference between heat exchanger and condenser?
actually there is no difference , infact condenser itself is a heat exchanger
What type of exchanger is used to condense a vapor by cooling it?
A heat exchanger.
What is the difference between a calorifer and a heat exchanger?
Calorifer is a heat exchanger, with a specific of air (or other gas) preheat. Usually is directly in a Duct installed. Heat Exchanger usually is separate unit.
Why Expansion bellows are required in heat exchanger?
expension belows are used for heat exchanger to avoid thermal stress
What is difference between condenser and heat exchanger?
A heat exchanger is a device that transfers heat from one fluid to the others. A condenser is simply a heat exchanger. It compresses refrigerants into a hot gas to then condense them into a liquid. Majorly condenser is used to cool the required vapor and heat exchanger is used to heat the required liquid.
What is the abbreviation for heat exchanger?
hx
Where is the dollar plate on a heat exchanger?
It's the flat, flanged cover on the front (and sometimes the rear) of a shell & tube heat exchanger.
How you can increase the retention time in shell and tube heat exchanger?
the most effective way to do so is to reduce the flow of the heat exchanger
