Abstract

In this project work the analyze of heat exchanger been done by ANSYS FLUENT. Shell and tube heat exchanger has been widely used in many industrial applications such an electric power generation, Refrigeration and environmental protection and Chemical Engineering. Baffle is a shell side component of shell and tube heat exchanger. Helical baffle have an effective performance of increasing heat transfer performance. The desirable features of heat exchanger obtain maximum heat transfer coefficient and a lower pressure drop. From the numerical experimentation results of heat exchanger is increased in helical baffle, which in turn decrease the time for cooling the product with lesser time.
