Equipment:
Heat Exchanger
Heat Exchanger 2
Shell & tube heat exchangers:
Advantages
 Widely known and understood since it is the most common type less thermally
efficient than other types of heat transfer equipment.
 Most versatile in terms of types of service.
 Widest range of allowable design pressures and temperatures.
 Subject to flow induced vibration which can lead to equipment failure.

Disadvantages
 Not well suited for temperature cross conditions (multiple units in series must be
used)
 Contains stagnant zones (dead zones) on the shell side which can lead to
corrosion problems.
Design Procedure of Heat Exchanger 3
(shell and tube)

The main steps of design the heat exchanger are summarized as follows:
i. Obtain the required thermo physical properties of hot and cold fluids at
average temperature of streams.
ii. Perform energy balance and find out the heat duty (Q) of the exchanger.
iii. Calculate the LMTD.
iv. Assume overall heat transfer coefficient (Uo).
v. Calculate Provisional area and number of tubes.
vi. Specify the shell and tube configuration.
vii. Calculate hi and ho.
viii. Calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient (U). If it is not equal to
assumed value, then again assume Uo until it becomes equal to assumed
value.
ix. Calculate the pressure drop.

LMTD =
ln (ΔT1/ΔT2)
 (ΔT) 1= 238 ºC
 (ΔT)2= 145ºC
 LMTD= 187ºC
