Utilization of waste heat from the kitchen furnace of an enclosed campus
The objective of this research is to study the waste heat recovery potential sources at the enclosed campus of Mu'tah University. Based on certain criteria, the kitchen of the students' club was identified as a good source of waste heat recovery. A coil heat exchanger was designed, manufactured, installed and analyzed to utilize the sensible heat contained in the exhaust gas stream out of the kitchen furnace. The results of the research indicate that more than 60% of the waste heat from the kitchen furnace can be recovered and that the investment in such coil heat exchanger system is highly economical.
