Heat Exchangers

  • A shell and tube heat exchanger is the most common type of heat exchanger in all industries; mostly used in higher-pressure and higher temperature applications.
  • These types of heat exchangers have two divisions, one is shell and the other is tubes; one fluid runs through the tubes, and another fluid flows over the tubes to transfer heat between the two fluids.
  • For this purpose ERW or rolled pipes are used for shell and seamless tubes are used for tubes.
  • Consideration of process fluids in both shell and tube side; selection of required temperature specifications; limiting the shell and tube side pressure drop; setting shell and tube side velocity limits
  • Finding heat transfer area including fouling factor; selection of TEMA layout - based on thermal design; selection of tube parameters - size, thickness, layout, pitch, material; limiting the upper and lower design on tube length
  • Selection of shell side parameters - material baffle cut, baffle spacing, and clearances; thermal conductivity of tube material; setting upper and lower design limits on shell diameter, baffle cut, and baffle spacing; shell and tube heat exchanger is one type of closed circuit cooling equipment
