In this master thesis computational fluid dynamic simulations of two plate heat exchanger channels have been performed in Ansys CFX. The full geometry of the channels has not been included, the channels were modeled with a flat geometry instead of a corrugated pattern. To account for the effect of the corrugation on the pressure drop, one-time pressure losses and momentum sources were added in the
As a response to a lack of formal solid waste management (SWM), CBOs and youth groups have become the main providers of waste collection in informal settlements in Nairobi, Kenya.
