Two Pipe Heat Exchanger - Engineering Lab Training Systems
The double-tube heat exchanger is the
simplest form of heat exchanger, consisting of two concentric (coaxial) tubes,
one carrying the hot fluid and the other carrying the cold fluid. Heat is
transferred from the hot to the cold fluid without mixing of the two streams.
In the current lab setup, four segments of double-pipe heat exchangers are
arranged in series, where temperatures are measured at the inlet and outlet of
each segment. A series of bypass tubes are used to allow the operation of one,
two, three, or four segments, in parallel or counter flow setups, as required
by the specific lab exercises. A series of valves control the flow rates and
the direction of flow through a control program.
