This paper describes the development of a numerical algorithm and a graphical method that can be employed in order to determine the overall heat transfer coefficient inside heat exchangers. The method is based on an energy balance and utilizes the spreadsheet application software Microsoft Excel™. The application is demonstrated in an example for designing a single pass shell and tube heat exchanger that was developed in the Department of Materials Technology of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) where water vapor is superheated by a secondary oil cycle. This approach can be used to reduce the number of hardware iterations in heat exchanger design.

The Right

A general procedure for heat exchanger design has been presented in the Heat Exchanger Design Handbook (HEDH) [1], but no precise criterion for determining baffle cut nor baffle  spacing has been offered, and the emphasis is only on heat exchanger’s permissible range of application. In this paper, an optimization program has been used to calculate pressure drop, fluid velocity, heat power, overall heat transfer coefficient and middle temperature difference for various baffle cut and baffle spacing for the same type of heat exchanger, using the procedure in HEDH. This could be considered as complementary to the HEDH recommendations and can be used by designers and, generally, engineers for determining the right baffle cut and baffle spacing for their specific cases.

Efficient Heat Transfer

As shell and tube heat exchanger is widely employed in various field of industries, heat exchanger design remains a constant optimization challenge to improve its performance. The heat exchanger design includes not only the architectural geometry of either the shell and tube configuration or the additional baffles but also the working fluid. The baffle design including the baffle angle and the baffle distance has been understood as key parameter controlling the overall heat exchanger effectiveness. In addition, a room of improvement is open by substituting the conventional working fluid with the nanomaterials-enriched nanofluid. The nanomaterials, e.g. Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, increases the thermal conductivity of the working fluids, and hence, the more efficient heat transfer process can be achieved. This chapter provide an insight on the performance improvement of shell and tube heat exchanger by modifying the baffle design and utilizing nanofluids.

This paper presents the instruments developed for shell and tube heat exchangers and their measurements made in operating large scale HX units. These instruments provide in-situ, long-term direct measurement of temperatures and fluid flow rates that are important for evaluation of the desirable and undesirable effects of a HX design. Unique results of this instrumentation are the 3-dimensional measurements of temperature at the inlet, outlet, and along the length of heat exchanger tubes, total tube side flow, and individual tube flow measurements. The temperature measurements are interpolated in a 3-D computational space for design assessment and engineering evaluation. These results have been used to design upgrades for underperforming steam surface condensers. Data from these instruments, the evaluation process, and design effort could lead to development of a new class of better performing heat exchanger designs.

Abstract: The study was executed to get a quick calculation method for the design of equipment heat exchanger type shell and tube with a program shell and tube heat exchanger design. The purpose of this study was to obtain the results of the validation program shell and tube heat exchanger design of a condenser with power 4368.75 kW and the results of the evaluation program shell and tube heat exchanger design on the thermal design condensers nuclear power plant AP1000 PWR type. Input data into the program is done by inserting the parameters temperature, flow rate, physical properties and geometrical dimensions of the available designs of heat exchanger equipment specifications. Parameter for comparison of data can be obtained from the results of other calculations or experimental data. The results of comparison of the validation program shell and tube heat exchanger with condenser design calculations showed the highest difference found on Utube parameter equal to 1.3% lower than the design condition. This occurs because of differences in calculation between the program designed. The result evaluation of program shell and tube heat exchanger design toward the thermal design condensers nuclear power plant PWR type AP1000 obtained unknown parameters from the technical specifications.
