Working Principle of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Advantages of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger

A Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger (STHE) is one of the most widely used types of heat exchangers in industrial applications. It consists of a shell (a large pressure vessel) with a bundle of tubes inside it. One fluid flows through the tubes (tube side), while another fluid flows outside the tubes but inside the shell (shell side), allowing...
