HEAT EXCHANGER TUBES
The Shell and Tube (U-tube) is the most common type of heat
exchanger used in the process, petroleum, chemical and HVAC
industries, it contains a number of parallel “ U “ tubes inside
a shell. Shell Tube heat exchangers are used when a process
requires large amounts of fluid to be heated or cooled. Due to
their design, shell tube heat exchangers offer a large heat
transfer area and provide high heat transfer efficiency.
There are many different types or designs of shell and tube heat
exchangers to meet various process requirements. Shell and Tube
heat exchangers can provide steady heat transfer by utilizing
multiple passes of one or both fluids.
Heat exchanger “U” tubes are Manufactured in carbon steel grade
SA 192 or alloy steel or in stainless steel material.
