All that is given is the requirement regarding the solidification time and quantities that may be varied to achieve a satisfactory design. In other cases, the requirements may be specified as limitations on the temperature gradients in the casting in order to improve the quality of the product. Clearly, we are dealing with an open-ended problem without a unique solution. It is largely because of the open-ended nature of design problems that design is often much more involved than analysis. Consequently, while extensive information is available in the literature on the analysis of various thermal processes and on the resulting effects of the governing variables, the corresponding design problems have received much less attention.
Thus, heaters, thermostats, valves, and extrusion dies are considered components, and are often selected from available supplies or fabricated according to specifications. Design of components is also of interest, and engineering courses are devoted to the design of mechanical components such as gears, cams, springs, chains, and shafts. Similar considerations apply for the design of components of particular relevance to thermal systems. , may also be considered as components because the overall performance and output can be employed without considering the interaction between the various parts.
For instance, a company that develops and manufactures heat exchangers would generally design different types of heat exchangers for different fluids and applications, achieving different ranges in heat transfer rate, area, effectiveness, flow rate, etc. 5, may be considered for a variety of applications. These may then be designed to obtain desired parametric ranges of heat transfer rate, output temperature, size, etc. (Kays and London, 1984). Design engineers working on another thermal system, such as air conditioning or indoor heating, may simply select the condenser, evaporator, or other types of heat exchangers needed, rather than design these.
