Résumé

The computation tests are carried out on a homogeneous heat exchanger model as an anisotropic porous body. A significant influence of lateral coolant supply and removal on hydraulic and temperature nonuniformities is shown to exist. Analysis of the similarity criterions has enabled to suggest a modelling technique, making distinctions between the shell and tube scales, and the method of modelling the temperature field of the heat exchanger-evaporator on an electrically heated model using some other coolant with subsequent scaling of temperature fields. The results of physical modelling on aerodynamic and liquid-metal test rigs using electromagnetic transducers and micro thermocouples are presented.
