BAFFLE

This webinar examines different types of baffles (TEMA and non-TEMA) and demonstrates how different baffles affect heat exchanger performance. Further, we discuss some rules-of-thumb for proper design with respect to baffle cut, spacing, and orientation. Finally, we will provide a summary of the performance characteristics of the different baffle types, to...

This webinar will discuss Xist and CFD predictions of three NTIW exchanger configurations – 2 baffle, 4 baffles, and 6 baffles. The discussion will focus on the contributions of crossflow and longitudinal flow on heat transfer, which is due to varied baffle spacing for the same baffle cut. During the webinar,...
