  Investigation of the effect of baffle cut on heat transfer and pressure drop in shell-and-tube heat exchangers using CFD

  Işık, Erdem; Tuğan, Volkan

  The shell-and-tube heat exchanger (STHE) is one of the most widely used types of heat exchangers in industry. For this reason, studies conducted to improve the performance of STHEs are of great importance. In this study, a single-shell- and double-tube-pass STHE was designed, and a three-dimensional and steady-state flow analysis of this heat exchanger was conducted using the CFD method. The purpose of the analysis was to investigate the effect of baffle cut and mass flow rate of the fluid on the shell side on heat transfer and pressure drop by using the ANSYS Fluent, which is a type of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. For this aim, oil and water are used as working fluids in the shell and tubes of the STHE, respectively. Four different mass flow rates (0.6 kg/s, 0.8 kg/s, 1.0 kg/s, and 1.2 kg/s) are used for the fluid in the shell. In the analysis, three different STHEs with baffle cuts of 20%, 30%, and 40% are compared. According to the results of the CFD analysis, baffle cut plays an important role in heat transfer and pressure drop. The highest heat transfer per pressure drop was achieved for the STHE with 40% baffle cut and the lowest was achieved for the STHE with 20% baffle cut.

  Comparison of heat transfer and condensation on the walls of buildings constructed with iron profiles versus other classic models

  Kahraman, Gökhan

  This study aims to present the evaluation of the thermal performance and the amount of condensation on the walls of a building with iron profiles under steady-state conditions. Elazig, situated in the east part of Turkey, was chosen for fieldwork. In this region, minimum average temperature is around 1°C during winter. Calculations are made in a real wall model and three different wall model scenarios. Estimated advantages and disadvantages of these have been investigated. Heat transfer and condensation amount are taken as variables. In four different building component models, the required amount of energy during the heating period is calculated month by month. Calculations reveal the resistance of the wall without application of insulation material with iron profile is higher than of the other three wall types. The wall built with betopen and iron profile saves 37.5% more energy than the wall with bricks. When the iron-profiled wall model is compared with the insulated brick wall, it is observed that energy savings are similar, but calculations show condensation begins on the iron profile wall. Iron profile buildings become popular increasingly in rural areas. As a result of this study, it is observed that iron profile buildings are advantageous in terms of energy saving compared to other building component models. However, condensation is inevitable in wall components of iron profile buildings and so the damage in the buildings is more than just a disadvantage, it is an irreversible result.
