In a cross-flow, in which one system, usually the heat sink, has the same nominal temperature at all points on the heat transfer surface, a similar relation between exchanged heat and LMTD holds, but with a correction factor. A correction factor is also required for other more complex geometries,
2173:
The LMTD is a steady-state concept, and cannot be used in dynamic analyses. In particular, if the LMTD were to be applied on a transient in which, for a brief time, the temperature difference had different signs on the two sides of the exchanger, the argument to the logarithm function would be

When the two temperature differences are equal, this formula does not directly resolve, so the LMTD is conventionally taken to equal its limit value, which is in this case trivially equal to the two differences. 1788:{\displaystyle Q={\frac {UAr\displaystyle \int _{\Delta T(A)}^{\Delta T(B)}\Delta T{\frac {dz}{d\Delta T}}\,d(\Delta T)}{\displaystyle \int _{\Delta T(A)}^{\Delta T(B)}{\frac {dz}{d\Delta T}}\,d(\Delta T)}}} 732: 710: 1030: 392:{\displaystyle \mathrm {LMTD} ={\frac {\Delta T_{A}-\Delta T_{B}}{\ln \left({\frac {\Delta T_{A}}{\Delta T_{B}}}\right)}}={\frac {\Delta T_{A}-\Delta T_{B}}{\ln \Delta T_{A}-\ln \Delta T_{B}}}} 483: 2003: 991:{\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}{\frac {d\,T_{1}}{dz}}&=k_{a}(T_{1}(z)-T_{2}(z))=-k_{a}\,\Delta T(z)\\{\frac {d\,T_{2}}{dz}}&=k_{b}(T_{2}(z)-T_{1}(z))=k_{b}\,\Delta T(z)\end{aligned}}} 1987:{\displaystyle Q={\frac {UAr\displaystyle \int _{\Delta T(A)}^{\Delta T(B)}{\frac {1}{K}}\,d(\Delta T)}{\displaystyle \int _{\Delta T(A)}^{\Delta T(B)}{\frac {1}{K\Delta T}}\,d(\Delta T)}}} 53: 2144:
It has been assumed that the rate of change for the temperature of both fluids is proportional to the temperature difference; this assumption is valid for fluids with a constant

We assume that a generic heat exchanger has two ends (which we call "A" and "B") at which the hot and cold streams enter or exit on either side; then, the LMTD is defined by the

With this definition, the LMTD can be used to find the exchanged heat in a heat exchanger:
