Design Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger to Use City Water to Remove 1.2M Watts from Process Water.
Process Water Inlet Temperature 90° C Outlet Temperature 40° C
City Water Inlet Temperature 25° C
Meet 1.2M Watts of Thermal Requirement
Minimize Tube Side & Shell Side Pressure Drops
Minimize Raw Material Cost, By Weight
Minimize Heat Exchanger Internal Volume
HE Length Should Not Exceed 8 Meters.
Matlab HE Design Program Used to Perform
Calculations Based on Known Design Parameters.
Minitab Used to Perform Statistical Analysis of
“Design of Experiment” Studies Performed with Matlab Program.
Tube OD Tube Length Tube Thickness Tube Layout &
Angle Tube Material Tube Pitch Shell ID
Shell Material Shell Thickness City Water Flow Rate Counter or Parallel
Flow City Water Flow Side Baffles – Yes or No Baffle Spacing
Used to Eliminate Variables with Little Effect on Main Criteria
Used to Identify Variables which Interact to Affect Main Criteria
Used to Identify Variables’ Relative Level of Effect on Main Criteria
Four Final Variables Identified and Used to Optimize Two Final Designs
Design #1 – Optimized for Pressure DropsDesign #2 – Optimized for Weight & Cost
DESIGN #1 – DELTA P OPTIMIZED DESIGN #2 – WEIGHT OPTIMIZED
