    Conventional jackets can be divided into baffled and non-baffled categories. Baffled jackets often use a spirally wound metal baffle to direct flow in a spiral path along the vessel wall. Bypass flows around the baffle can exceed 1/3 to 1/2 of the total flow. Baffled jackets are usually used for small vessels with high temperatures where internal pressure is over twice the jacket pressure. Spirally baffled jackets are limited to 100 psig due to increased vessel wall thickness reducing heat transfer at higher pressures. Design and construction details follow ASME Code Section VIII. Heat transfer coefficients are calculated using equations accounting for parameters like Reynolds number, Prandtl number

    Conventional Jackets

    Figure 1: Conventional
    Jacket
    "Conventional jackets" can be divided into two (2) main categories: baffled and non-baffled.
    Baffled jackets often utilize what is known as a spirally wound baffle. The baffle consist of a
    metal strip wound around the inner vessel wall from the jacket utility inlet to the utility outlet.
    The baffle directs the flow in a spiral path with a fluid velocity of 1-4 ft/s. The fabrication
    methods does allow for small internal leakage or bypass around the baffle. Generally, bypass
    flows can exceed 1/3 to 1/2 of the total circulating flow.

    Conventional baffled jackets are usually applied with small vessels using high temperatures
    where the internal pressure in more than twice the jacket pressure.

    Spirally baffled jackets are limited to a pressure of 100 psig because vessel wall thickness
    becomes large and the heat transfer is greatly reduced. In the case of an alloy reactor, a very
    costly vessel can result. For high temperature applications, the thermal expansion differential
    must be considered when choosing materials for the vessel and jacket. Design and construction
    details are given in Division 1 of the ASME Code, Section VIII, Appendix IX, "Jacketed Vessel".

    Heat Transfer Coefficients: Conventional Jackets without Baffles


    (hj De / k) = 1.02 (NRe) 0.45 (NPr) 0.33 (De/ L) 0.4 (Djo/ Dji) 0.8 (NGr) 0.05 Eq. (1)

    Figure 2: Schematic of Conventional


    Jacket
    Where:
    hj = Local heat transfer coefficient on the jacket side
    De = Equivalent hydraulic diameter
    NRe = Reynolds Number
    NPr = Prandtl Number
    L = Length of jacket passage
    Djo = Outer diameter of jacket
    Dji = Inner diameter of jacket
    NGr = Graetz number

    The Reynolds Number is defined as:


    NRe = DVρ/μ
    Where D is the equivalent diameter, V is the fluid velocity, ρ is the fluid density, μ and is the
    fluid viscosity.

    The Prandtl Number is defined as:

    NPr = Cp μ / k
    Where Cp is the specific heat, μ is the viscosity, and k is the thermal conducitivity of the fluid.

    The Graetz Number is defined as:

    NGr = (m Cp) / (k L)
    Where m is the mass flow rate, Cp is the specific heat, k is the thermal conducitivity, and L is the
    jacket passage length.

    The equivalent diameter is defined as follows:

    De = Djo-Dji for laminar flow


    De = ((Djo)2 - (Dji)2)/Dji for turbulent flow
    Conventional Jackets with Baffles
    For conventional jackets with baffles, the following can be used to calculate the heat transfer
    coefficient:

    hj De/k= 0.027(NRe)0.8 (NPr)0.33 (µ/µw)0.14 (1+3.5 (De/Dc) ) ( For NRe > 10,000) Eq. (2)
    hj De/k = 1.86 [ (NRe) (NPr) (Dc/De) ] 0.33 (µ/µw)0.14 ( For NRe < 2100 ) Eq. (3)

    Figure 3: Schematic of Conventional Jacket


    with Baffle

    Two new variables are introduced. Dc is defined as the centerline diameter of the jacket passage.
    It is calculated as Dji + ((Djo-Dji)/2). The viscosity at the jacket wall is now defined as µw. When
    calculating the heat transfer cofficients, an effective mass flow rate should be taken as 0.60 x
    feed mass flow rate to account for the substantial bypassing that will be expected. De is defined
    at 4 x jacket spacing. The flow cross sectional area is defined as the baffle pitch x jacket spacing.
