The hairpin heat exchanger design is similar to that of double pipe heat exchangers with multiple tubes inside one shell. The design provides the flexibility of a U-tube design with an extended shell length that improves the exchanger’s ability to achieve close temperature approaches. Advantages Typical Applications Single phase heating and cooling when the required […]

Double pipe heat exchangers are the simplest of all types. They are fabricated from two pieces of pipe – one inside the other. One fluid flows through the inner pipe while the second fluid flows through the annulus between the pipes Advantages •Inexpensive •True counter current or co-current flow •Easily designed for high pressure service […]
