U-tube manometer contains water or mercury in a U-shaped tube, and is usually used to measure gas pressure. One end of the U tube is exposed to the unknown pressure field (P) and the other end is connected to a reference pressure source (usually atmospheric pressure) (Pref), shown in the schematic below

U-tube heat exchangers operate on a simple yet effective principle of transferring heat between two fluid streams without direct contact. One fluid, known as the process fluid, flows through the tubes, while the other, often a utility fluid like water or air, circulates the tubes within the shell. The principle of the shell and tube […]

A U-tube heat exchanger is a shell and tube heat exchanger where the tubes are bent into a U-shape. This design allows for thermal expansion and contraction without stressing the tube sheets, making it suitable for applications with significant temperature variations. The U-tubes are typically housed within a shell, allowing one fluid to flow...

U tube heat exchanger is a kind of tube and shell heat exchanger, belongs to the petroleum and chemical equipment’s. This kind of heat exchanger is named after the ‘U-shaped tube. U tube heat exchanger is composed of some main components like the tube box, shell, and tube buddle. What’s more, it is easy to […]

U-Tube shell and tube heat exchangers are a common design used in many industrial and sanitary applications due to their efficiency and versatility. This type of heat exchanger features a set of U-shaped tubes mounted within a cylindrical shell. One of the primary advantages of the U-Tube design is its ability to accommodate thermal expansion...
