Abstract
This paper carried out the thermal design of shell and tube condenser in ORC(Organic Rankine Cycle) using toluene as the working fluid. Heat exchanger design typically includes the determination of heat transfer surface area, number of tubes and tube length etc. In order to obtain the heat transfer surface area, shell and tube side heat transfer coefficients must be given to calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient. The simulation results show that the heat transfer coefficient for tube layout of 90o is higher than that of the other cases. In addition, it is found that the pressure drop and surface area for tube layout of 90o are lower than the other cases.
