A Heat exchanger is a device to transfer heat from one fluid (Liquid/Gas) to another. There are various types of heat exchangers used in process piping. Shell and tube heat exchanger is the most widely used heat exchanger and are among the most effective means of heat exchange. Shell and tube heat exchanger is a device where two working fluids exchange heats by thermal contact using tubes housed within a cylindrical shell. The fluid temperature inside the shell and tube are different and this temperature difference is the driving force for temperature exchange. Used for wide temperature and pressure range, Shell and tube heat exchangers are compact in design, easy in construction and maintenance and provide excellent heat exchange.
As the name specified, it consists of a shell and a number of tubes. Shell is the housing of the exchanger and tubes are mounted inside the cylindrical shell.
The working of a shell and tube heat exchanger is fairly simple. One fluid flows inside the tubes and the other through the shell. While flowing they exchange the heats which means the cold fluid gains the heat from the hot fluid. So one cold fluid enters the shell (or tube side or channel side) inlet nozzle and comes out of the outlet nozzle as hot fluid. Obviously, the other fluid will become cold in the outlet than in the inlet. The heat transfer in a shell and tube heat exchanger is determined by the exposed surface area that is decided by the number of thermally conductive metal tubes. The fluid flow inside the shell and tube heat exchanger can be parallel flow or crossflow.
Fig 1 shows the typical working principle of a shell and tube heat exchanger.
The above figure shows both inlet and outlet nozzle in the front header of the channel side. That means this exchanger consists of even number of tube passes. However, there can be odd number of tube passes. On that situation, the channel side outlet nozzle will be on the read header. Increasing the number of tube passes increase the heat transfer co-efficient.
To increase the fluid turbulence in the tube and shell side flow, turbulator and baffles are installed inside tubes and shells respectively. This increase the heat transfer between the fluids.
Typically a Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger consists of two-compartment / section one is shell side and other is channel/tube side
The heat exchanger is supported by saddles in the shell part.
Tube Bundle (Fig. 3) consists of the following components
Tube bundles are removed during maintenance. Standard practice is to flow the corrosive fluid inside the tubes so that if corroded they can be easily replaced or repaired. Fig. 3 below shows a typical tube bundle.
Normally tubes inside the exchanger are of 0.5″ to 2″ in sizes and arranged in triangular or square pattern as shown in Fig. 4
The tube shall be placed with a minimum centre to centre distance of 1.25 times the tube outside diameter of the tube. When mechanical cleaning of the tube is specified then a minimum cleaning lane of 6.4 mm shall be provided.
Baffles are installed in the shell of the shell and tube heat exchanger to create more turbulence and increase the flow time so that better heat exchange is possible. Baffles support the tubes so that damage and vibration of tubes are minimized.
As per TEMA (Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association) Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger can be classified as
The reason behind such limitation is to keep the maximum shell wall thickness below 3 in. (76 mm), and the maximum stud diameter to below 4 in. (102 mm).
Depending on various construction and configuration parameters following types of shell and tube heat exchangers are widely used in industries.
The tubesheet is fixed in the shell by welding and hence the term fixed tube sheet exchanger applies. This simple and economical construction allows cleaning of the tube bores by mechanical or chemical means. An expansion bellow is installed in the shell when there is a large temperature differences between the shell and tube materials. Refer to Fig. 5 for an example of fixed tube heat exchanger.
In floating head construction, the rear header can float or move as it is not welded to the shell. The tube bundle can easily be removed while maintenance. Fig. 6 shows an example of floating head heat exchanger.
Fig. 7 shows an example of stationary tube sheet with removable tube bundle.
U-tube exchangers are a type of shell and tube heat exchanger whose tube bundle is made of continuous tubes bent into a “U” shape. The bend side is free-floating and this helps in thermal expansion without requiring expansion joints. However, such bends are difficult to clean.
Based on the number of times the tube-side/shell-side flows pass through the exchanger, shell and tube heat exchanger is categorized as:
The full TEMA classification of shell and tube heat exchanger types are provided in Fig. 9 below:
Depending on the application of shell and tube heat exchangers, they are known as various types as listed below:
In this, two or three heat exchangers placed one above other. This is termed as 1 shell in parallel and 2 or 3 Shells in series. Refer Fig. 10.
The following codes and standards govern the design of shell and tube heat exchanger.
Design of Shell and tube heat exchanger is a trial and error iterative process. In recent time, the thermal design is carried out by the process team using engineering software. However, the logic behind the calculations should be clearly understood. The shell and tube heat exchanger design calculations are based on initial selection of a preliminary exchanger configuration and certain initial decisions like
Further steps for the shell and tube heat exchanger design consist of
Once the requirements are met, a process datasheet is developed indicating all process design parameters of shell and tube heat exchanger design.
The following table (Table-1) provides general guidelines for shell and tube side fluid allocation in a shell and tube heat exchanger:
High fluid velocities increases heat transfer coefficients and reduces fouling but causes erosion and increases pressure drop. So velocity selected should be just enough to prevent settling of suspended soilds. Typical fluid velocities considered for the design of shell and tube heat exchangers are given the following table (Table-2):
Typical pressure drop values considered for shell and tube heat exchanger design are:
The most popular software used for thermal design of shell and tube heat exchanger are listed below
Mechanical design of shell and tube heat exchangers consist of calculation of shell thickness, flange thickness, etc. Various codes like ASME Sec VIII, PD 5500, TEMA, etc provides guidelines for mechanical design. The following design guidelines can be followed:
Following materials are the most common as Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger MOC.
Depending on user experience and manufacturer guidelines, shell and tube heat exchangers should be inspected at regular intervals. A shell and tube heat exchanger can fail by one or more of the following factors:
Following preventive maintenance steps at regular intervals can reduce the risk of equipment failure. Following maintenance steps can be followed to enhance shell and tube heat exchanger performance:
Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers find their application in the following Industries-
I am a Mechanical Engineer turned into a Piping Engineer. Currently, I work in a reputed MNC as a Senior Piping Stress Engineer. I am very much passionate about blogging and always tried to do unique things. This website is my first venture into the world of blogging with the aim of connecting with other piping engineers around the world.
Need some focus on expansion bellows.
What I like the most about the shell & tube design compare to other type like plate and frame or helicoil is that despite the fact they are built to last for a longer life is: 1- The tube bundle is easy to replace because you have just one or 2 gaskets to replace 2- They are easy to repair a tube temporary by plugging it for a fast restart of the process while waiting for the next shut down 3- If you need to clean the tubes, you can easily see from your eyes if the tubes are clean enough. 4- For high scale application their is the possibilty to add an automatic brush in each tube to avoid any scale or plug tube.
In steam application I suggest to use a vertical shell & tube design to flood the heat exchanger.
