The article presents a research problem of heat and hydraulic characteristics of high-compact plate-fin heat-exchange surfaces. These heat-exchange surfaces are widely used in aerospace applications, space and renewable power generation. The experimental facility and measurement routine are described. The experimental facility has a closed loop, which allows to use it for different working mediums (air, mixtures of inert gases etc.). A transient method of heat research was used. The experimental data for BMSTU №9 surface in the range of Reynolds numbers from 100 to 700 for air is given in the article. Obtained experimental data was compared with the data of Kays and London for surface №104.
