Numerical analysis of thermal performance of waste heat recovery shell and tube heat exchangers on counter-flow with different tube configurations

Numerical analysis of thermal performance of waste heat recovery shell and tube heat exchangers on counter-flow with different tube configurations

This study investigates the effect of tube layout configurations on the hydraulic-thermal performance of shell-and-tube heat exchangers (STHXs) as waste heat recovery systems. The STHXs are triangular (30°, STHX-T), rotated triangular (60°, STHX-RT), and combined (STHX-C). Water at a temperature of...
