Abstract

The stationary-head prototypes unusually are designed using low cost manufacture and simple construction, without bolt or nut to join both the stationary-head and shell. The shell has four holes to supply hot/cold fluid, and next to the tube-sheet hole to supply cold/hot fluid, the position both of them are inside the stationary-head. The calculation of the dimensions of the heat exchanger aims to determine the quality of the heat exchanger based on the overall heat transfer coefficient, impurity factor, and the pressure drop that will occur.Calculations using the LMTD method, obtained that receive heat released has a large unity with time Q, then the heat received by cold fluid is Q = 4565.16 W, LMTD produced also shows the number 20, with a proven factor (F) is 1. Comparison obtained from the calculation of the tube side and shell side is the value of Re generated is greater than the value of Re on the shell side.
