The problem with baffles
Thread Content
What are the forms of horizontal baffles and vertical baffles? What is used as the basis for the distinction?
Transverse baffles and longitudinal baffles are two different types, with the difference lying in the direction in which they are placed. Transverse baffles are those that guide the fluid to change its flow direction in the horizontal direction, while longitudinal baffles are those that guide the fluid to change its flow direction in the vertical direction. Generally, transverse and longitudinal baffles are distinguished based on the angle of the baffle relative to the flow direction of the fluid. If the baffle forms a horizontal angle with the fluid flow direction, it is a transverse baffle ； When the baffle is at a perpendicular angle to the fluid flow direction, it is a longitudinal baffle. -
Baffle, guide plate – just for guiding the flow :)
Perpendicular to the axial direction of the heat exchange tube is the transverse direction, while parallel to it is the longitudinal direction
