SHOMBTIC Digaren : So" huu.t/outle7 EXPERIMENT NO. 6 HEAT TRANSFER THROUGH SHELL AND TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER aM: ‘To study heat balance and heat flow in a sh To gor ost tens ell and tube heat exchanger. To find out the effectiveness of heat exchange. ‘THEORY: ‘hell and tube heat exchanger is mostly used in chemical industries as a condenser, cooler, or heater. ‘When the heat transfer area required is more than 10 m?, one has to go for a shell and tube heat exchanger, which occupies less space and offers reasonable pressure drop compared to other types of heat exchangers. Because of its wide utility, Its mechanical design has been standardized is again function of cross-sectional y. This is The film heat transfer coefficient Is a function of velocity, wh area of the fluid path. Thus, decreasing the cross-sectional area could increase the fluid velocit “achieving multi passed heat exchangers, at the cost of pressure drop and temperature gradient affecting due to concurrent flow. ‘The factor ‘is the temperature diference correction Factor, when it multiptid by the counter flow LMTO, the product is the correct mean temperature difference ‘The factor ‘is 2 function of two dimensionless number Rand S which are defined a5 pe Im Th) Toe T) p= (Io TMT) or the ratio of the actual temperature rise ofthe cold fluid to ess lend approach were zero (based on se obtainable if the warm- io ofthe fallin temperature of the fluid to the rise in ‘The factor Sis the heating effectiven the maximum possible temperature 1 counter current flow).
