Transient behavior of heat exchangers carries great importance because of its effect on overall performance of the systems in which they take place. In this paper a general formulation of the problem, some simple solutions, recent novel approaches and various techniques will be discussed.

A numerical study of transient forced convection in parallel-plate heat exchanger is
presented. The walls are insulated and the separating plate has a negligible resistance. The fluids flow is supposed laminar and fully developed. To obtain the transient effect of the heat transfer, a sudden change of the temperature of one or both fluids is imposed at the entrance. A finite difference method is used to solve the problem. The effect of the nature of the fluids, the heat capacity of the separating plate, the magnitude of the flow rate and the temperature step is analysed. A distortion in the temperature profile and some inverse variations of the temperature near the separating plate are observed in some cases during the transient phase. The duration of the unsteady state depends on the sign of the temperature step.

We consider here the mixt following problem:
 (1)
with the boundary conditions: U(t,0) = 0 and V(t,l) = 0 (2)
and the initial conditions: U(O,x) =  (x) and V(O,x) =  (x) (3)
we give a complete analysis and estimations of the modes of the system which allows prove that its solution w decrease exponentially when time passes by with the rate  for which an explicit estimation is given.

In unsteady-state heat transfer, one must take into account the heat capacity of the solid material. Here, we take up the problem of the solid walls by a periodic method which gives without simplification the heat transfer across the wall in a form that is very easy to use. Then we only need a spacial partition. In case of a step input, the step responses are well obtained by sommation of a Fourier series.
