Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger – High-Efficiency Heat Transfer Solution for Industrial Applications
Product Overview of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
The Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger is a highly efficient and versatile heat transfer solution designed for industries requiring cooling, heating, condensation, and evaporation processes. Known for its compact design, superior heat transfer performance, and corrosion resistance, this heat exchanger is ideal for handling aggressive and non-aggressive media. Whether you need large heat transfer areas (HTA) in limited spaces or a customizable solution, our Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger delivers unmatched reliability and performance.
🔬 How Does It Work? Step-by-Step Process
- Fluid Flow: Two fluids (one hot and one cold) flow through the exchanger—one through the tubes (tube side) and the other through the shell (shell side).
- Heat Transfer: Heat is transferred from the hotter fluid to the cooler fluid across the tube walls, ensuring efficient thermal exchange.
- Baffle System: Baffles inside the shell increase turbulence, enhancing heat transfer efficiency.
- Output: The cooled or heated fluid exits the exchanger, ready for the next stage of your industrial process
📌 Key Features & Benefits of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
- ✅ Universal Corrosion Resistance: Made from SCHOTT DURAN glass and PTFE components, it resists corrosion from aggressive media, eliminating the need for expensive exotic metals.
- ✅ High Heat Transfer Efficiency: Smooth glass surfaces prevent fouling, ensuring excellent heat transfer performance.
- ✅ Compact & Lightweight: Perfect for applications requiring large HTAs in limited spaces.
- ✅ Easy Maintenance: PTFE tube sheets and ferrule-type sealing allow for easy tube replacement and cleaning.
- ✅ Flexible Installation: Can be installed vertically or horizontally based on your facility’s requirements.
- ✅ Cost-Effective: Offers 3x higher heat transfer coefficients compared to conventional coil-type exchangers.
- ✅ Wide Temperature Range: Operates efficiently between -40°C to 150°C with a maximum temperature difference of 120°C.
- ✅The overall heat transfer coefficient in shell and tube heat exchanger is about 3 times higher than in coil type heat exchanger.
- ✅The pressure drop in shell and tube heat exchanger is minimal compared to 2-3 kg/cm2 in the coil side of coil type heat exchanger.
- ✅ For the requirement of higher heat transfer areas shell and tube heat exchanger is the only alternative.
