Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
A shell and tube heat exchanger (STHE) is a type of heat exchanging device constructed using a large cylindrical enclosure, or shell, that has bundles of perfectly spaced tubing compacted in its interior. Heat exchanging is the transfer of heat from one substance or medium to a similar substance or medium. Shell and tube heat exchangers are the most common form of heat exchange design. They are classified according to their properties, tubing type, and other characteristics.
Features:
* Best for special purpose machinery
* Smooth functioning
* Durable finish
Shell
The shell of a shell and tube heat exchanger is made of pipe or welded metal plates using materials that can withstand extreme temperatures and that are corrosion resistant.
The inner shell must be round with a consistent diameter to minimize space between the baffled outer edge and the shell.
Tubes
Tubes of a shell and tube heat exchanger are welded or extruded and made from carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium, Inconel, or copper.
Tube diameters of 0.625 inch (16mm), 0.75 inch (19mm), or one inch (25mm) are used in compact heat exchangers.
The thickness of the tubes is chosen for pressure, temperature, thermal stress, and resistance to corrosion at lengths of 6 to 24 feet or 2 meters to 7 meters. Tubes that are longer reduce shell diameter and result in high shell pressure drop.
Tube sheet
The tube sheet is a plate or sheet that is perforated with holes for the insertion of pipes or tubes and designed to support the tubes on either end of the cylindrical shell.
The shell extends beyond the tube sheets and is sealed on both ends to form the enclosed chamber that is covered by the heads.
We are offering Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger to our clients who trust us for our quality standards.
These are highly efficient as the manufacturing process is strictly supervised by our skilled and experienced supervisors. These are popular for their smooth functioning, easy operation, and long service life. Our clients can avail the product in different sizes and cost effective range.
Our shell and tube heat exchangers are used in many comfort and industry applications for heating and cooling fluids. They consist of a shell with traditional plain tubes or enhanced surface tubes for high thermal performance. The fluids can be liquids or gases, one of which flows inside the tubes while the other flows outside the tubes within the shell. There are single-phase or two-phase heat exchangers, and the latter is used to either boil or condense fluids.
We can provide a detailed drawing after your order.
We can also provide Custom services.
