This study aims to analyze and develop a heat exchanger (HE) application for the manufacture of silica nanoparticles synthesis from agricultural waste. This shell and tube-type HE is designed simply, but it still refers to the existing design rules. The design of a shell and tube type HE with one pass shell and tube with turbulence flow. The specifications of the HE apparatus are 1.93 m in shell length, 0.203 m in shell diameter, 0.020 m in inner tube diameter, 0.022 m in outer tube diameter, and 0.016 m in thickness. The results showed an effectiveness value of 66.38% with an impurity factor of 0.01314. This informed that although the shell and tube-typed HE does not meet the requirements and standards for being set in industrial applications, it can be useful as a learning method regarding the design process, working mechanism, and analyzing the performance of the HE.

The design of a heat exchanger is very effective to reduce total production costs, compared to buying a ready-made exchanger. This study aims to design a heat exchanger with a manual calculation analysis method to get dimension calculations of the heat exchanger. Dimension calculation of heat exchanger aims to determine the quality of the heat exchanger based on the overall heat transfer coefficient and the dirt factor that occurs in the heat exchanger. The designed heat exchanger is a shell and tube type with 1 (one) pass shell and 2 (two) pass tubes using water as hot fluid and cold fluid. The fluid flow is assumed to be the opposite. The results show the effectiveness of the heat exchanger reaches more than 50%. The performance of the designed heat exchanger is relatively good but it still does not meet the minimum requirements of the established dirt factor. This research can be useful as a learning method regarding the design process, working mechanism, and heat exchanger performance.

In this study, the experimental analysis was performed on the shell-and-tube type heat exchanger containing segmental baffles at different orientations. In the current work, three angular orientations (θ) 0°, 30°, and 60° of the baffles were analyzed for laminar flow having the Reynolds number range 303–1516. It was observed that, with increase of Reynolds number from 303 to 1516, there was a 94.8% increase in Nusselt number and 282.9% increase in pressure drop. Due to increase of Reynolds number from 303 to 1516, there is a decrease in nondimensional temperature factor for cold water (ω) by 57.7% and hot water (ξ) by 57.1%, respectively.

Heat exchangers used in the ships are mostly of water-cooled shell and tube type, whose tube stacks are made of copper-based materials due to the requirement of high corrosion resistance and high thermal conductivity. Even though, the copper made heat exchanger tubes do fail on board ships because of corrosion. More point of contention arises when it is manufactured by companies that have limited supporting data and documentations. In this context, the present paper investigates the corrosion behavior of copper tubes of heat exchanger to assess the life span of the tube stack for on-board applications. A series of experiments have been undertaken to investigate the corrosion rates of copper tubes in sea water and river water with flow velocity of 1.0 m/s, 1.5 m/s and 2.0 m/s for the tube side entry temperature of 20°C. The same experiments have been repeated for the shell side temperatures of 20°C, 40°C, 60°C and 80°C. The investigations have revealed that the corrosion in sea water is about three times higher than that of river water. The increases in temperature and flow velocity have increased the rate of corrosion to a significant level contributing to shorten the life span.
