High efficiency and compactness, offered by the Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger (PCHE) makes it a strong candidate for use as an Intermediate Heat Exchanger (IHX) and/or Secondary Heat Exchanger (SHX) for Advanced High Temperature Reactor (AHTR) systems and also the Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR). Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has been developing a computer code for the PCHE design and analysis [1], and will construct an experimental loop to evaluate the thermal hydraulic performance of PCHEs [2]. In order to correctly compare experimental results with the simulations, the extraneous heat losses from the PCHEs must be determined and incorporated. These heat exchangers operate at high temperature and consequently, despite the use of external thermal insulation, experience non-negligible heat losses to the surroundings. The objective of this work is to develop an analytical methodology for quantification of these heat losses based on experimental data to evaluate and predict the performance of the heat exchanger accurately.
