The Twisted Tube™ Advantage |
Improvements over
conventional shell & tube
heat exchangers |
Reduced Fouling
|
- Baffle-free design
eliminates dead spots where fouling can
occur.
- Velocity is constant and
uniform.
- Constant flow distribution
controls tube wall
temperature.
|
| No
Vibration |
- Baffle-free design directs
shell side fluid to true longitudinal
flow.
- Each Twisted Tube is
extensively supported at multiple contact points
along its entire length.
- Tube fretting and failure
due to vibration is eliminated.
|
| Lower Pressure
Drop |
- Twisted Tube technology's
longitudinal swirl flow reduces the high
pressure drop associated with segmental
baffles.
- Twisted Tube exchangers are
usually shorter in length and have fewer number
of passes, for a lower pressure drop on the
tubeside.
