Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Unit Manufacturer India
The Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Unit is a bench-top apparatus used to study heat transfer between two fluid streams in a shell-and-tube configuration, the most widely used heat exchanger type in industrial and process engineering. Students determine the overall heat transfer coefficient, LMTD, effectiveness, and NTU for parallel and counter-flow arrangements.

Core Process Engineering Lab Equipment
1. Distillation Column (Batch and Continuous)
Glass distillation column for separating binary liquid mixtures (e.g., ethanol-water) by vapour-liquid equilibrium principles. Packed or plate column designs available.
- Key experiments: McCabe-Thiele analysis; HETP determination; minimum reflux ratio; tray efficiency
- Features: Borosilicate glass column, reboiler, condenser, reflux divider, refractometer for composition analysis
2. Liquid-Liquid Extraction Unit
Demonstrates the extraction of a solute from one liquid phase to another using immiscible solvents, a key separation operation in pharmaceutical and petrochemical processes.
- Key experiments: Distribution coefficient; extraction efficiency; number of theoretical stages; counter-current extraction
3. Absorption Column
Gas-liquid absorption using a packed column, demonstrates CO₂ or NH₃ absorption into water or caustic solution, relevant to gas scrubbing and pollution control.
- Key experiments: Overall mass transfer coefficient KGa; height of transfer unit (HTU); flooding velocity determination
4. Fluidised Bed Unit
Demonstrates fluidisation of solid particles by an upward air or liquid stream, the basis of fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), drying, and coating operations.
- Key experiments: Minimum fluidisation velocity; pressure drop vs. velocity; bed expansion; fluidisation regimes
5. Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR)
Jacketed stirred reactor for studying homogeneous liquid-phase reactions under controlled temperature and residence time, fundamental to reaction engineering.
- Key experiments: Conversion vs. residence time; effect of temperature on rate constant; CSTR vs. PFR comparison
6. Heat Exchanger Network (Shell and Tube + Plate)
Combined shell-and-tube and plate heat exchanger demonstrating LMTD method, effectiveness-NTU method, and parallel/counter-flow comparison for both exchanger types.
- Scientico model: Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Manufacturer India
7. Pipe Flow Network Apparatus
Multi-pipe network demonstrating pressure distribution, Hardy-Cross method for flow distribution, and pump selection for complex networks, directly relevant to process plant piping design.
