  5. Copper tubing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_tubing

    In the North American plumbing industry, the size of copper tubing is designated by its nominal diameter, which is 1 ⁄ 8 th inch less than the outside diameter. The inside diameter varies according to the thickness of the pipe wall, which differs according to pipe size, material, and grade: the inside diameter is equal to the outside diameter ...

  6. Heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_exchanger

    Tube Layout: refers to how tubes are positioned within the shell. There are four main types of tube layout, which are, triangular (30°), rotated triangular (60°), square (90°) and rotated square (45°). The triangular patterns are employed to give greater heat transfer as they force the fluid to flow in a more turbulent fashion around the ...

  7. Boiler design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_design

    Sections of a steam locomotive showing the many fire-tubes which carry the hot gases of the fire through the boiler to heat the water and so create steam. Boiler design is the process of designing boilers used for various purposes. The main function of a boiler is to heat water to generate steam.

  8. Shell-and-tube heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell-and-tube_heat_exchanger

    In shell-and-tube heat exchangers there is a potential for a tube to rupture and for high pressure (HP) fluid to enter and over-pressurise the low pressure (LP) side of the heat exchanger. [8] The usual configuration of exchangers is for the HP fluid to be in the tubes and for LP water, cooling or heating media to be on the shell side.
