    Brandon White, Engineer, Experimental Research In 1958, Tinker introduced the concept of treating shellside flow in baffled shell‑and‑tube exchangers as a network of hydraulic resistances, analogous to electrical resistors. Each flow path—or stream—was assigned a resistance that depended on its location and geometry, providing a systematic way to predict pressure drops...
