Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger FAQ

What’s the difference between single-pass and multi-pass configurations?

Single-pass configurations allow fluid to flow in one continuous direction, making them simple and ideal for large temperature differences. Multi-pass configurations, on the other hand, route fluid through multiple stages, increasing turbulence and surface contact, which enhances heat transfer. However, multi-pass designs can lead to higher pressure drops and are more complex.

How do you choose tube diameters and wall thicknesses?

Larger tube diameters improve heat transfer by lowering flow velocity but require more space and cost. Smaller diameters increase fluid velocity, enhancing heat transfer but may cause higher pressure drops. Thicker walls provide better durability for high-pressure or corrosive environments, though they add weight and cost. The choice depends on your specific operating conditions.

Why is pressure relief important in shell and tube heat exchangers?

Pressure relief devices, such as valves or rupture discs, prevent dangerous pressure buildup that could lead to equipment failure. These devices release excess pressure to ensure safe operation, preventing leaks and ensuring the system remains within safe limits.

What are the benefits of finned tubes?

Finned tubes enhance heat transfer efficiency by increasing the surface area available for heat exchange. This allows for a more compact design, saving space and cost while boosting thermal performance.

What operational parameters should you monitor?

Key parameters to monitor include inlet and outlet temperatures, pressure drops, and flow rates. These metrics ensure the exchanger operates efficiently and help detect potential issues like fouling or improper flow distribution.

What precautions are needed during startup?

Ensure all connections are secure and gradually increase temperature and fluid flow to avoid thermal shock and pressure surges. Conduct pressure tests to confirm system integrity before reaching full operational levels.

How do you prevent thermal shock?

Prevent thermal shock by controlling the rate of temperature changes during startup and shutdown. Gradual adjustments and accurate temperature monitoring reduce the risk of thermal stress and potential damage.

What are the consequences of high-pressure drop?

High-pressure drops increase energy consumption and operational costs. They can also indicate problems like fouling or inefficiencies in the system, reducing overall heat transfer effectiveness.

How do non-condensable gases affect performance?

Non-condensable gases form an insulating layer that hinders heat transfer, increases pressure drops, and reduces efficiency. Proper removal of these gases is essential for maintaining optimal performance.

How can CFD help optimise heat exchanger design?

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulates fluid flow and heat transfer, allowing engineers to optimise designs by identifying inefficiencies. It helps refine configurations, improving performance before physical implementation, saving both time and costs.
