INTRODUCTION
The SOLTEQ HE104-PD Concentric Tube Heat Exchanger has been designed specifically
to demonstrate the working principles of industrial heat exchangers. The apparatus
requires only a cold water supply, single phase electrical outlet and a bench top to enable a
series of simple measurements to be made by students. Experiments can be readily
conducted in a short period of time, to accurately show the practical importance of the
following:
Temperature profiles
Co- and counter-current flow
Energy balances
Log mean temperature difference
Heat transfer coefficients
The equipment consists of a concentric tube exchanger in the form of a 'U' mounted on a
support frame. The external surface of the exchanger is insulated. Three temperature
measuring devices are installed in the inside and outside tubes to measure the fluid
temperatures accurately. To minimize losses in the system, the hot water is fed through the
inner pipe, with the cooling water in the outer annulus.
Control valves are incorporated in each of the two streams to regulate the flow. The flow
rates are measured using independent flowmeters installed in each line.
The hot water system is totally self-contained. A hot storage tank is equipped with an
immersion type heater and an adjustable temperature controller which can maintain a
temperature to within approximately 1C. Circulation to the heat exchanger is provided
by a pump and hot water returns to the storage tank to be reheated. The cold water
required for the exchanger is taken from the laboratory mains supply.
A readily identifiable valve arrangement allows simple changeover between co- and
counter-current configurations.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
(Refer to Figs. 1 and 2, pages 3 and 4).
A supply of hot water at a temperature up to 65C is maintained in a storage tank (4) at the
rear of the apparatus by an integral heating element (3). The temperature of the water in
the tank is monitored by a sensor (25) adjacent to the integral heating element (3). Power
to the heating element is regulated by a controller (12) connected to the sensor to maintain
a constant temperature. The controller is mounted on the front panel with a light emitting
switch to show when power is being supplied to the heating element. The storage tank is
fitted with a loose cover (1) to prevent ingress of dust and reduce loss of water through
evaporation. Water is continuously recirculated through the tank by a pump (7). The
bypass valve (5) is set accordingly with the desired hot water flow rate to prolong the life of
the pump.
Hot water for the exchanger is taken from the pump discharge and passes through the 1
mm thick of inner pipe with 13 mm ID in the concentric tube arrangement (14) before
returning to the tank for reheating. Flow through this circuit is regulated by a control valve
(22) and indicated on a flowmeter (21). Temperature sensors (18, 20) are installed at the
inlet and outlet of the exchanger hot water circuit to display the respective water
temperatures. A temperature sensor (10) is installed in the top branch of the tube to
indicate the mid-point temperature in the hot water circuit.
Cold water for the exchanger is supplied from an external source to the 1 mm thick of outer
annulus with 20 mm ID in the concentric tube arrangement (14) via an inlet (23) and valve
arrangement (19). Flow through this circuit is regulated by a control valve (26) and
indicated on a flowmeter (27). After heating in the exchanger where 1360 mm length of
tube is in contact, the cold water leaves via an outlet (24). Temperatures through the cold
water circuit are indicated on three temperature sensors (8, 17). Co- or counter-flow
configurations may be obtained by appropriate setting of the selector valves (19).
Valves (9, 11) at the top of the exchanger permit air to be bled from the system and
facilitate drainage. A drain valve underneath the storage tank permits the storage tank to
be drained.
Each temperature sensor in the exchanger circuit is installed in the middle of the flow
stream without touching the inner wall of the tube in order to obtain an accurate reading.
For co-current flow, valves V1 and V3 are opened, valves V2 and V4 are closed. For
counter-current flow, valves V1 and V3 are closed, valves V2 and V4 are opened.

COMMISSIONING
(Refer to Figs. 1 and 2, pages 3 and 4).
4.1 Check the drain valve underneath the water storage tank is fully closed (clockwise).
4.2 Remove the cover (1) from the storage tank (4) and fill the tank with clean water to
within 40 mm (about 1.5 inch) from the top.
NOTE: Heater will automatically off if the water level is below the level switch (2) in order to
prolong the heater life.
4.3 Replace the cover on the storage tank.
4.4 Close the air bleed valves (11, 9) on the top of the heat exchanger.
4.5 Connect the cold water inlet (23) to a source of cold water using flexible tubing.
4.6 Connect the cold water outlet (24) to a suitable drain.
4.7 Close the hot water flow control valve (22).
4.8 Set the temperature controller (12) to zero on the front panel.
4.9 Switch on the pump and observe operation of the pump.
4.10 Raise the cover on the storage tank and observe circulation of water through the tank.
4.11 Open the hot water flow control valve (22) and allow water to flow through the
exchanger until a steady flow of water is indicated on the hot water flowmeter (21).
4.12 Open the cold water flow control valve (26). Set the selector valves (19) to co-current
position. Allow water to flow through the exchanger until a steady flow of water is indicated
on the cold water flowmeter (27).
4.13 Close the hot and cold water flow control valves.
4.14 Attach a length of flexible tubing to each of the air bleed valves (11, 9) at the top of the
exchanger. Open each bleed valve and allow water to flow until all air is expelled.
4.15 Close both bleed valves and remove the flexible tubing.
4.16 Set the temperature controller (12) to an elevated temperature e.g. 50.0C. Switch on
the heater and observe the heater switch is illuminated indicating power output to the
heating element. Observe the heater in the storage tank and make sure it runs well.
4.17 Commissioning is now complete.
