Abstract

In this thesis, the experimental analysis of two different systems was carried out by using copper tube and steel tube in shell and tube heat exchangers. The experimental systems were designed and manufactured to have the same physical properties in two types of heat exchangers. Manufacturing costs were noted to enable comparison.

In the system where the experiments were carried out, only the heat exchanger bodies were replaced and the analyses were carried out and the other systems were kept constant. In order to perform an efficient analysis of the efficiency, the inlet temperature of the heater water was kept constant and it was not exposed to any recirculation or heat loss. Although it was observed that the efficiency of the copper tube heat exchanger increased significantly when the inlet water temperature was high during the experiments, there was no significant difference in efficiency between the two heat exchangers at low temperatures.

As a result of these analyses, it has been concluded that if the heat transfer is to be carried out for low temperatures, considering the cost, the carbon steel tube heat exchanger can be used despite of the high thermal conductivity of copper.
