Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
At FABRI-TEK ENGINEERS, we specialize in the design, manufacture, and supply of high-quality shell and tube heat exchangers that cater to various industries, including oil and gas, Process processing, power generation, and more. Our expertise in heat exchanger manufacturing enables us to provide efficient and reliable heat transfer solutions that meet the specific requirements of our clients. .
What are Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers?
Shell and tube heat exchangers are a type of heat exchanger that consists of a shell and a tube bundle. The shell is a cylindrical vessel that houses the tube bundle, which is a collection of tubes that are arranged in a specific pattern. One fluid flows through the tubes, while another fluid flows through the shell, allowing heat to be transferred between the two fluids.
Design and Manufacturing Process :Our shell and tube heat exchangers are designed using advanced software and manufactured using state-of-the-art machinery to ensure precision and accuracy. The design process involves
- Thermal Design : Our team of experienced engineers uses advanced software to design the heat exchanger, considering factors such as fluid properties, flow rates, and pressure drops.
- Mechanical Design : The mechanical design involves the selection of materials, tube layout, and shell design to ensure optimal performance and durability.
- Manufacturing : The heat exchanger is manufactured using high-quality materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminium, duplex, super duplex, Inconel, hastelloy, Alloy steel, titanium, and exotic alloys.
