- 2. WHAT IS EXCHANGER It is a heat exchange equipment that allows exchange of heat between hot and cold process streams. Example: a) Intercooler and preheaters. b) Condensers and boilers. c) Regenerators. d) Automobile radiators etc.
- 3. •Heat exchangers are one of the most common pieces of equipment found in all plants. •Heat Exchangers are components that allow the transfer of heat from one fluid (liquid or gas) to another fluid. •In a heat exchanger there is no direct contact between the two fluids. The heat is transferred from the hot fluid to the metal isolating the two fluids and then to the cooler fluid.
- 4. TYPES According to nature of heat exchange process. 1. Direct contact heat exchanger: e.g. Cooling tower, jet condenser, etc. 2. Indirect contact heat exchanger: e.g. Regenerators, Surface exchangers, etc. According to relative direction of fluid motion. 1. Parallel flow 2. Counter flow 3. Cross flow

- 8. DOUBLE PIPE It is the simplest type of heat exchanger used in industry These heat exchangers are cheap for both design and maintenance, making them a good choice for small industries. In this exchanger, one of the fluid flows through the inside pipe and another fluid flow flows through the annular space created between tow concentric pipes either in parallel or counter- current fashion.
- 9. Parallel flow Counter-current flow
- 10. This is usually employed for decreasing the temperature of a hot fluid with help of a cold fluid when flow rates are low. These are commonly used in refrigeration services. These exchanger are usually assembled in effective lengths of 3.65m,4.57m,6m. The distance in each leg over which the heat transfer occurs is termed as the effective length.
- 11. ADVANTAGES Very simple to construct· Very easy of operation. Apart from this, the double pipe heat exchanger is very attractive where the total heat transfer surface required is small. This is simple in construction, cheap and easy to clean.
- 12. DISADVANTAGES Small heat transfer surface in large floor space as compared to other type(e.g. shell and tube type heat exchanger). Dismantling etc, require large time. Maximum leakage points.
- 13. INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION Pasteurization Digester heating Heat recovery Pre-heating Effluent cooling.
- 15. Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchangers are the most important type of HE. It is used in almost every type of industry. For variety of industrial services where large heat transfer surface are require, shell and tube heat exchanger is used. This type of heat exchanger consists of a set of tubes in a container called a shell. The fluid flowing inside the tubes is called the tube side fluid and the fluid flowing on the outside of the tubes is the shell side fluid.
- 16. A shell and tube heat exchanger consists of a number of parallel tubes, ends of which are mounted in the tube sheet and the entire tube bundle is enclosed in a close fitting cylindrical shell. In this exchanger, one fluid flows through the tubes and is called as the tube side fluid; while the other fluid flows through the outside of the tube is called as the shell side fluid. Two fluids are in thermal contact but are physically separated by a metal wall of the tubes.
- 17. MAIN COMPONENTS OF SHELL-AND-TUBE HEAT EXCHANGERS
- 18. HEAT-EXCHANGER TERMS shell: It is usually cylindrical through which one of the fluid flows in one or more passes, commonly made of carbon shell. It may be cut to the required length from a standard pipe up to 60cm dia. having thickness of shell made of carbon steel varies from 5mm to 11mm depending upon the diameter. Tubes: Tubes may be of various lengths and sizes. The outside diameter of tubes vary from 6mm to 40mm and 19mm to 25mm are common.
- 20. Tie rods: Tie rods and spacers are used for two reasons: 1) hold the baffle assembly together; and 2) maintain the selected baffle spacing. Tie rod are fixed at one end in the sheet by making blind holes. Usually, 4 to 6 tie rods with atleast 10mm diameter are necessary Tube sheet: It is essentially a flat circular with a provision for making gasketed joint, around the periphery. A large number of holes are drilled in the tube sheet according to the pitch requirements, thickness ranges from 6mm to 25.4mm for tube outside dia. of 6mm to 40mm.
- 21. Tube pitch: The shortest centre to centre distance between the adjacent tubes is called as tube pitch. Clearance: The shortest distance between two tubes is called the clearance. The square layouts are required where it is necessary to get at the tube surface for mechanical cleaning. The triangular arrangement allows more tubes in a given space.
- 22. Baffles: Are installed on the shell side to give a higher heat-transfer rate due to increased turbulence and to support the tubes thus reducing the chance of damage due to vibration. There are a number of different baffle types, which support the tubes and promote flow across the tubes. Fig shows the following baffle arrangements: Single Segmental (this is the most common), Double Segmental (this is used to obtain a lower shell side velocity and pressure drop), Disc and Doughnut.
- 23. Shell side and Tube side passes: with the help of passes, we can change the direction of flow in the shell and tubes. Passes are generally used to obtain higher velocities and longer paths for a fluid to travel, without increasing the length of a exchanger, that leads to high heat transfer rates. The passes on shell side are : single pass, two pass, single split pass. The passes on the tube side are: one, two, four, six up to twelve. passes on the tube side are formed by partitions placed in the shell cover and channels. When we use a single pass partition on the tube side, a tube side fluid flows twice through a heat exchanger. In this case, the pass partition divides the tubes equally in two sections. Multipass construction decreases the cross section of the fluid path that increases the fluid velocity which in turn increases the heat transfer coefficient.
- 25. ADVANTAGES Less costly than removable bundle heat exchangers. Provides maximum heat transfer surface per given shell and tube size. Provides multi-tube-pass arrangements. High surface per given shell and tube size. Capable of withstanding thermal shock
- 26. DISADVANTAGES Shell side can be cleaned only by chemical means. Shell side fluids limited to nonvolatile and/or non-toxic fluids. i.e. lube oils. hydraulic oils. Tube side arrangements limited to one or two passes. Tubes expand as a group. not individually.
