Key Features
- Two-tube, single-pass shell and tube heat exchanger configuration
- Hot water flows through copper tubes while cold water flows across 25% cut baffles in the shell
- Instantaneous 3 kW water heater supplies a consistent hot water source
- Divider plate in the end box directs hot water flow through the tube bundle
- Thermometers measure inlet and outlet temperatures for both fluid streams
- Control valves regulate hot and cold water flow rates independently
Applications
The Shell Tube Heat Exchanger Water To Water apparatus is used in heat transfer laboratories to study shell and tube heat exchanger performance, helping students determine heat duty, LMTD and overall heat transfer coefficient in a practical water-to-water exchanger.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What type of heat exchanger is this apparatus?
It is a two-tube, single-pass shell and tube heat exchanger transferring heat between hot and cold water.
Q2. How does water flow through the exchanger?
Hot water enters the lower end box, flows through tubes in the lower half of the shell, crosses to the upper half and exits; cold water enters the lower shell, passes over the tubes between baffles, and exits at the top.
Q3. How many baffles does the shell have?
The shell contains 4 nos. of 25% cut baffles to direct the cold water flow across the tube bundle.
Q4. How is hot water supplied?
An instantaneous water heater of 3 kW capacity supplies the hot water for the tube side.
Q5. What utilities are required to operate the apparatus?
It requires a 3-phase AC supply, a 230V 15A AC supply with earthing, and a water supply of approximately 10 litres per minute.
