Over 85% of all new heat exchanger applications in oil refining, chemical, petro-chemical, and power generation are accommodated through the use of conventional shell and tube type heat exchangers. The fundamental basis for this statistic is shell and tube technology is a cost effective, proven solution for a wide variety of heat transfer requirements. However, there are limitations associated ...

The paper considers using of the simulator "tube-in-tube" and “shell-and-tubes” heat exchangers

A software for the thermal and hydraulic design of shell and tube heat exchangers with flowinduced vibration checks has been developed in a Windows-based Delphi programming environment. Its user-friendly input format and excellent colour graphics features make it an excellent tool for the teaching, learning and preliminary design of shell and tube heat exchangers. Design methodology is based on...

Heat exchanger is a universal process equipment, which widely used in chemical industry, oil refining, thermal power and other industries. Shell-and-tube heat exchangers often fail prematurely due to flow-induced vibration. In this paper, aiming at the problem of severe vibration shell-and-tube an enterprise, acceleration sensors are measure shell tube side exchanger. Through analysis measureme...

A monoclonal antibody was used to detect an early antigen of cytomegalovirus (CMV) by fluorescence 16 h after inoculation of MRC-5 monolayers in 1-dram (ca. 3.7-ml) shell vials and low-speed centrifugation. Of 770 specimens (urine, blood, lung tissue, sputum) processed in shell vials, 124 (16%) were positive for the virus at 16 h postinfection. CMV was isolated in standard tube cell cultures (a...

Shell and tube heat exchangers are widely being used in many of industrial and power engineering applications. Different techniques have been employed in order to enhance the performance of the heat exchanger. Air bubble injection is one method to increase the turbulence of the flowing fluids which in turn enhance the heat transfer performance. Injecting air bubbles is one of the promising tech...

Conventional tube cell culture was compared with a 2 day and 5 day spin-amplified shell vial indirect immunofluorescence assay for the detection of mumps virus in swabs from the area of Stensen's duct. The sensitivity and specificity of the shell vial assay were 95.9 and 100%, respectively. The shell vial detected 66.3% of the positive cultures within 2 days of inoculation while the first posit...

A heat exchanger network (HEN) for the process of methanol synthesis has been studied by combination of pinch design method and the application of “Twisted Tube” heat exchanger units as a new technology. The HEN is reconstructed based on the full utilization of maximum allowable pressure drops for the process hot and cold streams. An algorithm is developed to generate design procedure for twist...

heat exchangers (STHEs) is done by sophisticated computer software. However, a good understanding of the underlying principles of exchanger design is needed to use this software effectively. This article explains the basics of exchanger thermal design, covering such topics as: STHE components; classification of STHEs according to construction and according to service; data needed for thermal de...
