Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
The proven industry standard — robust, adaptable, and built for nearly any duty, pressure, or temperature.
Shell and Tube exchangers cover an enormous range of duties, and getting the configuration right — tube layout, baffle design, materials of construction — takes real engineering judgment, especially for non-standard or severe services.
Our engineers design and troubleshoot these units directly: new designs for unusual fluid combinations or space-constrained layouts, and diagnostic work on existing units suffering from vibration, fouling, or underperformance that a generic inspection hasn't been able to explain.
We apply the same TEMA-standard rigor as our software, but with the judgment to handle the cases software alone can't — vibration analysis for high-velocity shell-side flow, tube layout optimization for unusual nozzle placement, and root-cause diagnosis when an existing unit simply isn't performing as designed.
For vibration-sensitive designs — high shell-side velocities, long unsupported tube spans — we run dedicated vibration analysis beyond standard TEMA checks, since tube vibration failure is one of the more common and expensive shell-and-tube problems that standard sizing alone doesn't catch.
