Tube & Shell Heat Exchangers

A shell and tube heat exchanger (STHE) is a type of heat exchanging device constructed using a large cylindrical enclosure, or shell, that has bundles of tubing compacted in its interior. The use and popularity of shell and tube heat exchangers is due to the simplicity of their design and efficient heat exchange rate.A shell and tube heat exchanger (STHE) is a type of heat exchanging device constructed using a large cylindrical enclosure, or shell, that has bundles of tubing compacted in its interior.
