Abstract
The project statement is to optimize the heat transfer in a compact heat recovery unit (Heat Recovery and Emission Control Equipment - HREC) using CFD with application in day to day life. In general, the outgoing exhaust gasses are released to atmosphere at over temperature of the dew point of water vapor in waste gases. Recovering a portion of the waste heat enhances the efficiency of the equipment and as well reduce the emissions providing energy savings and green environment. In this study, the potential of recovering waste heat emitted by any heat generation units in common day to day life and in industry is considered. The Heat Recovery and Emission Control Equipment (HREC) acts an intermediate unit at the exit of hot gas generation unit & feed water heating unit. As a result of the calculation, it was determined that recovery of the waste heat can be employed at many applications as like as a combustion air preheater by means of a recuperator.

Now-a-days, due to the rapid population growth and industrial growth has immense effect on the usage of energy
Waste heat from the sources is may be due to the thermodynamic limitations and economical factors related to the processing equipment
It is possible to get some usefulness from the waste heat by using special unit called as Waste heat recovery unit
Summary
Now-a-days, due to the rapid population growth and industrial growth has immense effect on the usage of energy. Enormous amount of power is needed to be produced to meet the world’s energy requirement. In doing so most of the power plants emits large amount of hot gases along with polluting agent. As the population increases, need for the vehicle is increases more combustion engines to be produced and used to run a vehicle. During the process of power production, large amount of heat is liberated from the various processes and it is dumped into the nature without making use of it. The dumped heat from these sources into the nature is called as waste heat. Waste heat from the sources is may be due to the thermodynamic limitations and economical factors related to the processing equipment. It is possible to get some usefulness from the waste heat by using special unit called as Waste heat recovery unit
