Shell and tube heat exchanger TEMA type can highly affect exchanger size, easy maintenance, and mechanical integrity. That’s why selecting the optimum Exchanger TEMA (Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association) type is crucial to ensure optimal performance and easy maintenance.
Shall we use an exchanger with fixed tubesheet? Or a floating head with removable channel cover?
How does the fluid being highly fouling or clean affect the choice? How does design pressure or temperature affect the exchanger TEMA type choice? Do we need a kettle type or do we need to split the shell flow at inlet and outlet? In this video, we shall go through different guidelines that are followed when choosing the shell and tube exchanger TEMA type.
