Shell and Tube Heat Exchange

Shell and Tube Heat Exchange



Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers
TANPERA shell and tube heat exchangers can be designed as U-tube or straight-tube models, depending on the process requirements.
The type, material, wall thickness, and joining method of the tubes are determined by TANPERA engineers based on the fluid type, temperature, required pressure, losses, and flow characteristics.
U-tube models are particularly preferred in applications with high temperature differences and where ease of cleaning is important.



Tank Suction Heaters
Also known as tank suction heaters, these exchangers are used to heat stored liquids that may exist in solid or semi-solid form at low temperatures, making them pumpable for further processing.



Tube-in-Tube Heat Exchangers (TGB Series)
TANPERA’s TGB Series Tube-in-Tube Heat Exchangers are designed for use in processes involving dirty fluids. These exchangers consist of two concentric tubes, providing robust performance and easy cleaning.



Moisture Removal Heat Exchanger (for Biogas Applications)
In biogas systems, the produced gas contains about 30% water vapor depending on the temperature. Before entering the gas engine, this moisture must be removed. TANPERA’s moisture removal exchangers condense and separate this vapor efficiently.



Steam Condenser Heat Exchangers
These exchangers serve two main purposes:
– To produce hot water using energy from saturated or superheated steam.
– To condense steam-phase fluids at saturation or under vacuum using cold water.
Due to gasket limitations in plate-type exchangers under high temperatures/pressures, shell and tube models are preferred for such applications. Their key advantage is long-term, maintenance-free operation.


Clean Steam Generator Heat Exchangers
These units generate clean steam by using dirty steam, thermal oil, or superheated water as the energy source. The produced steam is safe for direct contact with food, pharmaceuticals, and hygienic processes.



Waste Heat Recovery Heat Exchangers
In systems burning high-carbon fuels such as coal, fuel oil, diesel, or biogas, hot exhaust gases are used to produce hot water. Shell and tube heat exchangers are more durable against contamination and corrosion, making them ideal for this purpose.
