Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger with Data Acquisition
Product Code : EL-HAMTLE-10767
Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger with Data Acquisition (code EL-HAMTLE-10767) is a laboratory trainer for measuring the heat passed between hot and cold water in a shell and tube exchanger, with the two streams running in parallel or in counter flow as the cold water hoses are switched. Hot water comes from a service module with tank and pump, a 3000 W heater and a temperature control unit, while 6 temperature points and hot and cold water flow meters supply the readings.

What Is the Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger with Data Acquisition Used For?
A shell and tube exchanger carries one fluid through a bundle of tubes and the other through the shell that surrounds them, with heat passing through the tube walls, a type widely used in process plant. In the laboratory, students heat the tank water, set the hot and cold water flows and wait for steady readings at the 6 temperature points. The fall in hot water temperature and the rise in cold water temperature, with the flow rates, give the heat exchanged and the heat transfer coefficient. Swapping the cold water hoses reverses that stream, so the same exchanger can be compared in parallel and counter flow.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the number of shell and tube trainers needed.
- Power version — single phase at 230 V and 50 Hz, 230 V and 60 Hz, or 120 V and 60 Hz.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is a shell and tube heat exchanger arranged?
One fluid flows through a bundle of tubes while the other flows through the shell that surrounds them, and heat passes through the tube walls from the hotter to the cooler stream.
How is the flow direction reversed?
Switching over the cold water hoses reverses the direction of the cold stream, so the same exchanger can be tested in parallel flow and then in counter flow.
What measurements does the apparatus provide?
Temperatures are measured at 6 points and the hot and cold water flows by flow meters, with a temperature measuring range of 0 to 325 °C and heating power up to 3000 W.
Where does the hot water come from?
The service module's hot water tank, with its transfer pump and 3000 W heater, supplies the hot stream, and a temperature control unit regulates its temperature.
What space and services does it need?
Allow approx. 800 × 600 × 800 mm for the apparatus, which weighs approx. 30 kg, plus an outside water supply and a single-phase electrical connection.
