The factors affecting performance of shell and tube heat exchanger and the pattern of flow of the streams/fluids in them.
Their functions and general applications in Engineering.31.3 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
Anyone who wants to use a heat exchanger faces a fundamentalchallenge, fully defining the problem to be solved which requires anunderstanding of the thermodynamic and transport properties offluid. Such knowledge can be combined with some simplecalculations to define a specific heat transfer problem and select anappropriate heat exchanger.Heat exchangers serve as straight forward purpose controlling asystem’s or substance’s energy. Although there are many differentsizes, levels of sophistication and types of heat exchangers, they alluse a thermally conducting tube or plate to separate two fluidssuch that one can transfer thermal energy to the other.This study thereby necessitates the need for the design anddevelopment of software for which will lead to near maximumperformance of a heat exchanger.Finally, the data obtained from this procedure shows that a oneshell-pass and two tube-pass heat exchangers is more efficient thanmost heat exchangers in fluids thermal conductivity and transfercombustion.
