Determination Sheet and Data Sheet of Shell and tube Heat exchanger
Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger "Determination sheet" A Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger (STHE) determination sheet is a document used in the design and selection process of a shell and tube heat exchanger . This sheet typically includes various parameters and calculations necessary to determine the specifications of the heat exchanger for a particular application. These parameters may include: 1. Heat duty: The amount of heat transfer required between the fluid streams. 2. Inlet and outlet temperatures of both hot and cold fluid streams. 3. Flow rates of hot and cold fluids. 4. Physical properties of the fluids such as density, specific heat, viscosity, and thermal conductivity. 5. Design pressure and temperature requirements. 6. Material of construction for the shell, tubes, and tube sheets. 7. Tube diameter, length, and layout. 8. Number of tube passes and baffles. 9. Fouling factors. 10.Allowable pressure drop. 11.Type of tube sheet construction (floa...
