Abstract

The Bell-Delaware method is adopted to study the traditional segmental-baffle heat exchangers in heating the light oil with different array of tube bundle. The effects of the baffle parameters (such as the tube arrangement, spacing between baffles) on the heat exchanger structural parameters and performance (such as the shell diameter, the tube number, the heat transfer coefficient and the pressure drop in the shell side) are discussed in detail.
