Fluid Flow Field Distribution Comparison of Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger with Multi-Parallel-Channel
摘要
Abstract
In order to solve the problems of the longitudinal flow shell-and-tube heat exchanger such as fluid flow maldistribution, high pressure drop and the overall performance deterioration, a novel structure of multi-parallel-channel inlet/outlet (MPC) was proposed. The numerical and experimental investigation on shell-side fluid flow distribution and resistance performances of the MPC heat exchanger were carried out by employing commercial CFD software of FLUENT 6.3 and Pitot tube velocimetry, respectively. Under the conditions of without FDBs (Fluid Destribute Baffles) and with FDBs of different punching ratioes, both shell-side fluid flow distribution and resistance performances were investigated under different Reynolds numbers (Re) and numbers of tube row (N) respectively. Investigation results show as follows: (1) Under the condition of without FDBs, with the decrease of N, the maldistribution of shell-side is effectively improved and the resistance performances can be reduced sharply, even more than 70%of total pressure drop can be reduced at same Re when N=11 decreases to N=7; (2) FDBs could effectively improve the shell-side fluid maldistribution, but the pressure drop will increase at the same time. (3) Comparison of different FDBs shows that the FDBs of No.1 has the best performances of fluid flow distribution at the same Re and N;(4) The main pressure drop of shell-side are generated in the region of inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger.关键词
