Background

A shell and tube heat exchanger, also known as the workhorse of industrial process heat transfe

It is the most common type of heat exchanger in oil refineries and other large chemical processe
are used when economical. Though the application of other types of heat exchangers is increasin
largely because of its versatility

Construction

As its name implies, this type of heat exchanger consists of a shell (a largepr
through the tubes, and another fluid flows over the tubes (through the shell) t
called a tube bundle, and may be composed by several types of tubes: plain,
Shell and tube heat exchanger units can be designed for almost any combination of pressure and t

Requirements of Heat Exchangers

Heat exchangers have to fulfil1 the following requirements:


1. High thermal effectiveness
2. Pressure drop as low as possible
3. Reliability and life expectancy
4. High-quality product and safe operation
5. Material compatibility with the process fluids
6. Convenient size, easy for installation, reliable in use
7. Easy for maintenance and servicing
8. Light in weight but strong in construction to withstand the operational pressures
9. Simplicity of manufacture
10. Low cost
11. Possibility of effecting repair to maintenance problems
