Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger Double pipe exchangers are usually assembled in 12,15 or 20 ft
effective length.
Effective length means the distance in each leg over which heat
transfer occurs and excludes inner pipe protruding (extend)
beyond the exchanger section.
When hairpins are employed in excess of 20ft in length
corresponding to 40 effective linear feet or more of double pipe,
the inner pipe tends to sag and touch the outer pipe, which
causes poor flow distribution in the annulus.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger The principal disadvantage to the use of double pipe exchangers
lies in the small amount of heat transfer surfaces contained in a
single hairpin.
When it used with distillation equipment's on industrial process
a very large number are required. These requires considerable
space, and each double pipe exchanger introduces no fewer than
14 points at which leakage might occur.
The time and expense required for dismantling and periodically
cleaning the double pipe are larger compared with other types of
equipment's.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger However, the double pipe exchanger is of great use where the
total required heat transfer surface is small 100 to 200 ft2 or less.
For fluid in pipes and tubes, Sieder and Tate made a correlation
for both heating and cooling fluids, principally petroleum
fractions, in horizontal and vertical tube.

Where Re is Reynold number, μ𝑤
is the viscosity at the tube wall
temperature and μ is the viscosity at caloric temperature.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger The above equation gave maximum mean deviation of
approximately ±12% from Re=100 to Re=21,000 except for water.

The above equation gave maximum mean deviation of
approximately +15% and -10% for Re above10,000 except for
water.
The above equations can be applicable for organic liquids, aqueous
solutions, and gases. But they are not conservative for water, and
additional data for water must be given.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger Even though the above equations are obtained for tubes, they will
also be used indiscriminately for pipes.
Pipes are rougher than tubes and produces more turbulence for
equal Reynold number.
Coefficients calculated from tube-data correlations are actually
lower and safer than corresponding calculation on pipe data. And
also there are no pipe correlation in the literature as tube
correlations.

Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger When a fluid flows in a conduit having other than a circular cross
section, such as an annulus, it is convenient to express heat
transfer coefficient and friction factors by the same types of
equations and curves used for pipes and tubes.
To permit this type of representation for annulus heat transfer, it
has been advantageous to employ an equivalent diameter De.
This equivalent diameter is four times the hydraulic radius.
The hydraulic radius is the radius of pipe equivalent to the
annulus cross section.
The hydraulic radius is obtained as the ratio of the flow area to
the wetted perimeter.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger For a fluid flowing in annulus, the flow area is (𝛱/4) (D2
2-D12),
but the wetted perimeter for heat transfer and pressure drop are
different.
For heat transfer, the wetted perimeter is the outer circumference
of the inner pipe with diameter D1, so 𝛱D1, so
De=4rh=4∗𝑓𝑙𝑜𝑤 𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎
𝑤𝑒𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑟=
4𝛱 𝐷22−𝐷1

4𝛱𝐷1=
𝐷22−𝐷1

In pressure drop calculation, the friction not only results from
the resistance of the outer pipe, but is also affected by the outer
surface of the inner pipe.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger The total wetted perimeter is 𝛱 𝐷2 + 𝐷1 , and the pressure
drop in annuli will be:
De`=4rh=4∗𝑓𝑙𝑜𝑤 𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎
𝑓𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝑤𝑒𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑟=
4𝛱 𝐷22−𝐷1
2
4𝛱 𝐷2+𝐷1= 𝐷2 − 𝐷1
Therefore, Re for the same conditions, w, G, and μ are different
for heat transfer and pressure drop since De might be above
2,100 while De` is below 2,100.
Actually, both Re should be considered only approximations,
since the sharp distinction between streamline and turbulent flow
at Re of 2,100 is not completely valid.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger Even tough D differ from De, ho is effective at the outside
diameter of the inner pipe.
In double pipe exchangers, it is customary to use outside surface
of the inner pipe as the reference surface in Q=UA𝛥T, and hence
hi has to be determined for Ai and not A, it must be corrected.
hi is based on the area corresponding to the inside diameter
where the surface per foot of length is 𝛱*ID. On the outside of
the pipe the surface per foot of length is 𝛱*OD.
By letting ℎ𝑖𝑜 be the value of hi referred to the outside
diameter. ℎ𝑖𝑜 = ℎ𝑖𝐴𝑖
𝐴= ℎ𝑖

Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger
Uc will remain constant if the scale or dirt deposit does not alter
the mass velocity by constructing the fluid flow area.
UD and 𝛥T will obviously change as the dirt accumulates
because the temperature of the fluids will vary from time the
surface is freshly placed in service until it becomes fouled.
a) Annulus diameters and b) location of coefficients
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger If 𝛥T calculated from observed temperature instead of
process temperature, then Q= UD A𝛥T may be used to
determine 𝑅𝑑 for a given fouling period.

When a cylinder is very thin compared with its diameter, as a
layer of dirt, its resistance is nearly the same as that of
thorough a flat. Error <1%.
For thick scale, the error may be appreciable.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger When 𝑅𝑑 (deposited) > 𝑅𝑑 (allowed), as after service period the
apparatus no longer delivers a quantity of heat equal to the
process requirements and must be cleaned.
𝑅𝑑 value important for two reasons:
1. To protect the heat exchanger from delivering less than
required process heat load for specific period
2. To decide or consider dismantling and cleaning interval
Numerical values of the dirt or fouling factors for a variety of
process service are provided in Kern book Appendix Table 12.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger The tabulated values may differ from those encountered by
experience in particular service.
If too frequent cleaning is necessary, a greater value of
𝑅𝑑 should be kept in mind for future design.
It is expected that heat transfer equipment will transfer more
heat than the process requirements when newly placed in service
and that it will deteriorate through operation as result of dirt. In
this case use Uc instead of UD which is useful to check whether
or not clean exchanger will be able to deliver the process heat
requirement when it becomes dirty.
Chapter 4
Design of Double Pipe Heat Exchanger Example 1: Double pipe Benzene - Toluene Exchanger
It is desired to heat 9,820 lb/hr of cold benzene from 80 to
120OF using hot toluene which is cooled from 160 to 100OF.
The specific gravities at 68 OF are 0.88 and 0.87, respectively.
The other fluid properties will be found from Appendix.
A fouling factor of 0.001 should be provided for each stream,
and the allowable pressure drop on each stream is 10.0psi.
A number of 20 ft hairpins of 2 by 1 ¼ in. IPS pipe are available.
How many hairpins are required?
