With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches, this heat exchanger features a 2-pass tube design for optimal performance. The tube bundle length measures 36 inches and is constructed with 304 stainless steel tubes, measuring 3/4 inch in outer diameter and .049 inch in wall thickness. These tubes are made of SA249 TP304 material and have an 18-gauge thickness. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, ensuring secure and reliable connections. The tube plate material is grooved 304 stainless steel for enhanced heat transfer efficiency. Steel separators are used to separate the steam and liquid streams within the heat exchanger. This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger has a working pressure of 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial applications requiring high-pressure operation.
Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers Overview
Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers are equipment used in HVAC systems and various industrial applications for the purpose of transferring heat between two fluids. These exchangers are composed of a large outer shell and an inner tube bundle. The arrangement allows one fluid to flow through the tubes while a second fluid circulates outside the tubes but within the shell. As they pass each other, heat exchange occurs, with the fluid inside the tubes either gaining or losing heat from the fluid in the shell. Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers are noted for their durable construction, effectiveness in heat transfer, and ease of maintenance, including the straightforward process of replacing the tube bundle.
