Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger for Cooling of Lube Oil

Choosing sides of a shell and tube heat exchanger for oil

Jan 20, 2018 · There are more consequences of the water contaminating the oil, so you should put the higher pressure oil through the tube so if there is a leak oil leaks into the water. Plus, if the oil goes on the shell side and is higher pressure, the exchanger will cost more because there is more material that needs to be able to withstand a higher pressure. Lastly, I would assume oil will be more prone to contaminants than water and more fouling will occur on the oil

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A TUBE TYPE

This tube type lubricating oil heat exchanger is used to extract heat from lubricating oil circulating in the main engine of a vessel. Its operation is based on the principle of heat balance, given as:Q=M h C phT h = M c C pcTc. This heat exchanger was designed using the Logarithmic Mean Temperature Difference method and it Shell and Tube Exchangers-Dallas, Texas-Thermal Transfer Shell and Tube heat exchangers are one of the most popular styles of heat exchanger devices used due to the various designs available. You will see these heat exchangers used in common application such as cooling hydraulic oil on a power unit, water glycol on engines, air or gases downstream of a compressor, condensing steam, vaporizing gases, and heating gases or fluids up.

Heat Exchangers - Vertical Heat Exchanger - Southern Lube

We are engaged in manufacturing high precision oil coolers/heat exchangers that are generally heat exchangers for cooling oil. In our company, we are mainly fabricating shell and tube type heat exchangers. These oil coolers/heat exchanger can be located outside the power pack or lubrication system or press for efficient cooling results.
