Paraffin flow rate in the tube side of the paraffin heat exchanger

2010-01-12View Original

Thread Content

I’m currently working on designs related to paraffin, including paraffin heat exchangers. Cooling water flows in the shell side, while paraffin flows in the tube side. The calculated flow rate of the tubular paraffin is very low (below 0.25 M/S). Since this is the first time I’ve encountered this substance, is it normal to clarify such a flow rate? I hope experienced sea travelers can offer some guidance to me; thanks in advance!

It is normal for n to have high viscosity and low flow rate. What value should be used for the heat transfer coefficient?
